Hydro dynamic bearing
Hydrodynamic
Bearings Advantages
Hydrodynamic bearings
are used for larger, faster and stronger rotating equipment that requires
stronger support for the rotating parts. These include steam turbine, gas
turbines, marine shafts, pumps and motor that run on speed higher than 3000
RPM, or machinery running over 500 HP. Hydrodynamic bearings provide support
for turbomachinery with a longer life time than ball bearing or roller bearings
from the lubrication that prevents contact between the rotating parts of the
bearings. In addition, hydrodynamic bearings can operate through the critical
speed while maintaining optimum stability and suppress vibration while reducing
noise.
Applications
of Hydrodynamic Bearings
Applications of our
hydrodynamic bearings include gas turbines, steam turbines, generators, heavy
machinery rotary shafts with high speed requirements, hydroelectric turbines,
large and heavy pumps, compressors, large engines, and etc.
