What are the effects of overload and overload movement of slewing bearings?

Slewing bearings play a vital role in construction machinery. They are responsible for transmitting axial loads, radial loads and overturning moments between the turntable and the chassis. The greater the load of the slewing bearing, the more weight it can bear. Therefore, you must pay attention to the load when choosing a slewing bearing.

If the slewing bearing is used under overload conditions, it may become stuck and unable to rotate. At this time, the body can be tilted by reducing the amplitude, adjusting the legs or moving the chassis position to help achieve the slewing movement of the heavy object and complete the scheduled lifting and other operations. If the slewing bearing is damaged, it must be repaired to avoid causing greater damage. Therefore, when purchasing a slewing bearing, the maximum load must be calculated and the appropriate slewing bearing must be selected to greatly increase its service life.

In recent years, some well-known slewing bearing manufacturers have continuously launched new products and new technologies to meet the challenges brought by overload movement. The newly launched slewing bearings, after repeated verification and multiple experiments of the product process by the R&D team, can simultaneously withstand large axial, radial loads and overturning moments, and effectively cope with the pressure brought by overload movement.

In short, the overload movement of the slewing bearing will have a negative impact on the performance and safety of the equipment. Therefore, we must strictly use and maintain the slewing bearing in accordance with the regulations to ensure its normal operation. At the same time, pay attention to the relevant product news we release in a timely manner to understand the latest technology and product trends to meet various challenges.
