China CCTV recently reported a news about the reception ceremony about 8-meter diameter main bearings, which are applied in the tunnel boring machine (TBM). Several members of the Academy of Sciences with highest honors have attended this ceremony.

The Tunnel boring machine (TBM) is a large-scale engineering machine used in large infrastructure projects. Such as highway tunnels, railway tunnels, and sub-sea tunnels. The environment in the tunnelling work is very harsh. It is faced with large dust and various wet geological layers, such as soft soil bottoms, rock formations, etc. The environment is very unfavourable for the equipment. Thus the technical requirement on main bearings adopted will be more strict.

CHG/LYHG Bearing Factory, is leading in the large rolling mill bearing rollers and large wind power bearing rollers industry in recent years, has won a great reputation and deep recognition.

After understanding the bearing and the corresponding use environment, we can analyze the cause of bearing failure. Through multiple comparisons and observations of rolling mill bearings, it is concluded that the following factors can cause bearing damage.

How to choose the right rolling mill bearing for the steel mill? （Part Ⅰ）

Generally speaking, the design service life of the rolling mill bearings of strip mills is 3000-5000h, but in actual use, the service life of the bearings is far from reaching this goal. Steel manufacturers often suffer heavy economic losses due to premature failure of bearings, and among them, machine damage caused by the bonding of bearing inner rings and roll necks is even more costly. So, how to choose the right rolling mill bearing for the steel mill?

What should I do when my thin section bearing makes abnormal noise？

The internal structure of thin section crossed cylindrical roller bearings adopts the arrangement of rollers vertically crossed at 90°, and a single bearing can simultaneously withstand the joint action of radial force, bi-directional axial force, and tilting moment. Installing shims or spacers between the rollers can prevent the rollers from tilting or the rollers from grinding against each other and effectively prevent the increase of friction torque. In addition, the structure of vertical cross-arrangement of the rollers can avoid the phenomenon of roller clamping; at the same time, because
