Thermal Mounting of Rolling Bearings: Easy and Cost-Effective with FAG Heating Rings
Rolling bearings can be mounted and dismounted quickly and easily with the help of the FAG HEATING-RING and the FAG HEATER-PLATE-370C. The heating ring is suitable for mounting small numbers of bearing rings with bore diameters from 50 to 200 millimetres. Thanks to the low acquisition cost, customers can realise significant savings and thus greater cost effectiveness.
Herzogenrath, February 27, 2008. - An innovative and favourably priced product offered by FAG Industrial Services GmbH (F'IS) now simplifies the extraction of cylindrical roller bearing inner rings. The HEATING RING is made of a light metal alloy and is suitable for dismounting the inner rings of cylindrical roller bearings and needle roller bearings with or without a fixed lip easily and cost-efficiently. It is used primarily for the occasional extraction of small and medium-sized bearing rings with bore diameters from 50 to 200 millimetres. Customers benefit from the low investment cost, the ease of operation and the accessories that were also developed by F'IS and are perfectly adapted to the product, for example the electric HEATER-PLATE-370C.
Cylindrical inner rings of separable rolling bearings with a tight fit on a shaft are widened by heating to permit mounting and dismounting. The FAG heating rings are heated to the required temperature of 200 to 300 °C with the help of a HEATER-PLATE-370C. They have heat-insulated handles for easier handling. As the temperature of the light metal alloy is twice as high as that of the steel, heat is transferred with a relatively insignificant loss of temperature. The outside diameter of the bearing inner ring is first coated with silicone-free heat conducting paste (HEATING-RING.PASTE-20ML) for an optimal heat transfer. Then the heating ring is slid over the inner ring to be extracted and braced by means of the handles. The heat is transferred quickly to the inner ring. After the tight fit has been released, the heating ring is removed from the shaft together with the bearing ring. Then the bearing ring is removed immediately from the aluminium heating ring to prevent it from overheating. The FAG HEATER-PLATE-370C can also be used to heat rolling bearings or other workpieces with outside diameters of up to 350 millimetres and a weight of up to 20 kg.
FAG-Heater-Plate-370C - data & facts: Size of the device: 360x360x170 mm Plate size: 350x350 mm Power consumption: max. 2200 W at 230 V/50 Hz Power controller: 0 to 100 % Temperature control: continuously variable from +100 °C to +370 °C Weight: ca. 13 kg
