Advantages

Precision crossed bearing with the compact structure of cylindrical roller are arranged 1:1 placed between inner ring and outer ring. Rollers and groove are linear contact. Rings and rollers have small elastic deformation when the bearing achieve loads, Meanwhile, It can achieve radial load, axial load, tilting moment and other combined loads.

Application

The precision crossed bearing are widely used in locations where need high rigidity and high rotation speed but also required minimum size. Such as joints and swiveling units of industrial robots, the swiveling center of machine tools and medical equipment etc.

Structure

Cross-roller bearing have variety types such as cage or spacer between rollers, full complement cylindrical rollers.Selection is depend on working conditions. The structure with spacer type is optimal for application with small turning moment, high rotation.Full complement types is optimal for application with lower rotation speed and heavier loads.

Type

Cross-roller bearing have seal types, which have special rubber seal on both sides, it have good sealing effect for anti-dust and grease leak.

Customizable

LYNBC can produce and replace the bearings of IKO,THK INA, types are DRB、DSX、DRE、DXV、DRBH、DRBS、DRBC、DRU、DRBF etc.According to the operating requirements to select different types, such as mounting hole type,cage type, spacer type, full complement cylindrical roller type, double seal type etc, the precision can reach to P2.

Technical Support

The design's of all these Crossed Roller Bearings series are based on standard structures; LYNBC can design and manufacture many other similar structures in accordance to the special and particular requirements of their customers'. lf our customer's have specific requests then the customer should identify the structure, and mounting dimensions that are required.

Proper lubrication and sealing options enhance performance in harsh environments.

07

Easy Installation & Maintenance

Some models (RU type) have integrated inner and outer rings, simplifying mounting.

Pre-lubricated bearings reduce the need for frequent maintenance.

08

High Temperature & Corrosion Resistance

Stainless steel variants available for extreme environments.

Special coatings (e.g., anti-corrosion, ceramic rolling elements) for enhanced durability.

Installation Guide
01

Preliminary:

Alignment: The key to a successful installation is proper alignment. Ensure the bearing is aligned squarely with the housing bore and shaft/rotating component during the entire installation process. Misalignment can cause premature bearing failure and reduce accuracy.

Press Fit or Clearance Fit: Determine whether the bearing will be installed with a press fit (interference fit) or a clearance fit. This will significantly influence the installation procedure and required tools.

Press Fit: Requires carefully controlled pressing force to seat the bearing properly without damaging it.

Clearance Fit: The bearing slides into the housing/onto the shaft with minimal force.

Mounting Flanges/Rings (if applicable): Many crossed roller bearings have integrated mounting flanges or require separate mounting rings. Install these components first, ensuring they are properly aligned and secured according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pay attention to torque specifications.

02

Progressive Pressing (Press Fit):

Use a suitable pressing tool, such as an arbor press, hydraulic press, or specialized bearing installation tool.

Apply even and gradual pressure to the entire circumference of the bearing race being pressed. Use a pressing plate or adapter that matches the bearing race's outer diameter to distribute the force evenly. Avoid applying pressure to the rolling elements.

Monitor the pressing force and ensure it remains within the manufacturer's specified limits. Excessive force can damage the bearing.

Periodically check the bearing's progress and ensure it is seating squarely within the housing bore/onto the shaft.

03

Controlled Expansion (Press Fit, Alternative Method):

For very tight interference fits, controlled expansion can be used. Heat the housing to expand the bore slightly, or chill the shaft to shrink its diameter, allowing the bearing to be installed with less force.

Use a controlled heating method, such as an induction heater or oven. Monitor the temperature carefully to avoid overheating and damaging the material.

Apply the bearing quickly while the components are at the desired temperature differential.

Securing the Bearing: Once the bearing is fully seated, it must be properly secured to prevent it from moving or rotating within the housing bore/on the shaft.

Clamping Plates/Rings: Use clamping plates or rings to apply axial pressure to the bearing races. Ensure the clamping force is evenly distributed and within the manufacturer's specifications.

Set Screws/Dowel Pins: In some cases, set screws or dowel pins may be used to further secure the bearing. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for placement and tightening.

Adhesives: While less common for precision applications, adhesives can be used to secure the bearing in place, especially in clearance-fit applications. Use only adhesives specifically designed for bearing installation and follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

Precision Crossed Roller Bearing Maintenance
Precision crossed roller bearings are used in applications requiring high rotational accuracy and rigidity, such as robotics, medical equipment, and industrial automation. Proper maintenance ensures their longevity and performance.
01
Regular Inspection

Check for Wear & Damage: Look for surface damage, cracks, or signs of excessive wear.

Monitor Noise & Vibration: Unusual noise or increased vibration may indicate contamination or misalignment.

Lubrication Condition: Ensure the lubricant is clean and adequate. Contaminated grease can shorten bearing life.

02
Cleaning Process

Use Proper Cleaning Agents: Wash bearings with high-purity solvents like isopropyl alcohol or kerosene. Avoid water-based cleaners.

Avoid Excessive Force: Never use high-pressure air or rough tools that can damage the bearing surfaces.

Dry Completely: After cleaning, dry the bearing with clean, lint-free cloths or low-pressure air.

03
Lubrication

Choose the Right Lubricant: Use manufacturer-recommended grease or oil.

Apply Proper Amount: Excess lubrication can cause overheating, while insufficient lubrication leads to wear.

Reapply Periodically: Bearings in continuous operation need lubrication at specified intervals (e.g., every 6–12 months, depending on usage).

04
Handling & Storage

Use Clean Gloves: Avoid direct contact with hands to prevent contamination.

Store in Dry, Clean Areas: Keep bearings in original packaging until use, away from dust and moisture.

Prevent Impact Damage: Dropping or applying force can cause micro-cracks, affecting precision.

05
Installation & Alignment

Ensure Clean Mounting Surface: Dirt and debris can cause misalignment.

Apply Even Pressure: Press fit the bearing gently using appropriate tools to avoid internal stress.

Verify Preload & Torque: Follow manufacturer specifications for preload adjustments and torque settings.
