NMT Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings High Speed Positioning Double Row Angular Contact Support Bearings For Automatic Machine Tools & Robot Precision Transmission

Numerically controlled machine tools, industrial robots and automatic indexing equipment are widely applied in intelligent manufacturing. During operation, rotary support parts bear radial loads and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously. Frequent start-stop and reciprocating positioning will trigger alternating load impacts. Ordinary single row angular contact bearings can only withstand unidirectional axial force. Paired installation occupies larger assembly space, increases working procedures and raises difficulty in coaxiality control. Conventional deep groove ball bearings have weak axial load capacity. Axial shifting easily occurs under high-speed reciprocating positioning conditions, directly reducing repeated positioning accuracy of equipment. Many automatic equipment feature compact internal space. Equipment designers tend to adopt integrated bearing structures to simplify assembly and shrink the volume of transmission units. Meanwhile, precision automatic equipment sets strict standards for operation noise, rotary runout and temperature rise at high speed. Insufficient bearing accuracy will cause workpiece machining errors and jitter of robot movements. The market urgently demands integrated double row angular contact ball bearings. Equipped with two rows of built-in balls, the bearings can carry bidirectional axial force and radial force at the same time, satisfying compact installation space and high-precision positioning requirements of precision automatic equipment.

The intelligent manufacturing industry keeps upgrading. Machining accuracy of machine tools, movement speed and positioning requirements of industrial robots are continuously improved. Various automatic rotary joints, machine tool feed shafts and rotary tables need to maintain stable positioning performance for a long period. Single row angular contact ball bearings must be used in pairs to withstand bidirectional axial loads. Uneven preload control easily emerges during paired installation. Clearance variation occurs after long-term high-speed operation and undermines long-term accuracy stability of equipment. Ordinary bearings generate massive friction heat at high speed. Poor heat dissipation will lead to raceway expansion and change internal clearance, triggering vibration and noise. Many robot joints and CNC rotary tables have limited cavity dimensions, making it impossible to arrange two sets of single row bearings and imposing great restrictions on structural layout. Besides, automatic production lines operate continuously all year round. Frequent commutation brings sustained alternating loads. Inferior bearings are prone to fatigue pitting on raceways and shorten equipment overhaul cycles. NMT Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings adopt integrated integral design with two rows of rolling elements. They can independently bear radial loads and bidirectional axial loads, simplify mechanical structures and comply with the miniaturization and high-precision development trend of precision equipment.

NMT Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings adopt integrated layout of double row rolling elements with built-in contact angle structure. They can bear radial loads and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously without combined paired installation, effectively saving internal installation space of equipment and simplifying assembly procedures. Optimized curved profile of raceways improves stress state of steel balls, reduces friction loss during high-speed rotation, controls operation temperature rise and adapts to long-term continuous high-speed operation. Manufactured from high-purity bearing alloy steel via stabilized heat treatment, the material delivers uniform surface hardness of raceways and outstanding anti-fatigue performance. Precisely machined cages guide rolling elements to run smoothly, restrain sliding of rolling elements under high speed and reduce wear and vibration. Multiple sealing options are available including open type, metal dust shield and rubber sealing ring. Sealed bearings can block dust and cutting fluid from penetrating into bearings, suitable for complex working conditions in machine tool workshops. The bearings feature excellent rigidity to resist axial movement and guarantee stable and reliable repeated positioning accuracy of automatic equipment. Widely used in rotary tables of CNC machine tools, joints of industrial robots, automatic indexers, precision servo transmission modules, rotary mechanisms of packaging automation and rotary spindles of testing instruments. Complete standard specifications are compatible with mainstream domestic and foreign automatic equipment, applicable for new machine matching and renovation replacement of old automatic production lines.

Inner and outer rings are processed via forging, precision grinding and ultra-finishing. Geometric precision of raceways, surface roughness are strictly controlled to lower rolling friction. The whole heat treatment process accurately manages metallographic structures to restrain dimensional creep induced by long-term high-speed operation and sustain bearing precision continuously. Polymer or solid cages are formed by precision molding with high guiding accuracy and stable rotation. All finished products pass radial runout inspection, clearance screening and rotation smoothness test. Products with poor precision are eliminated to guarantee consistent accuracy among bearing batches.

Complete specification series are extensively matched with rotary mechanisms of CNC processing equipment, multi-joint industrial robots, automatic indexing devices, servo precision transmission assemblies, rotary units of automatic packaging and spindles of precision testing instruments, supplying high-rigidity integrated rotary support for various intelligent equipment.
