    Ceramic Ball Bearing

    Uploaded by

    Durga Prasad K
    This document discusses ceramic ball bearings. It begins by providing background on the development of silicon nitride ceramics and their use in bearings. It then defines a ceramic hybrid ball bearing as one made of ceramic elements like silicon nitride. The document describes the three main types of ceramic ball bearings and lists several advantages of ceramic balls over steel balls like lower weight, higher hardness, and corrosion resistance. It provides examples of applications and concludes that ceramic hybrid bearings have longer service life and lower vibration levels than conventional steel ball bearings.

    Introduction
     Silicon Nitride was developed in 1963 by NASA.
     The machine tool industry has been a pioneer in the
    use of ceramic hybrid ball bearings
     Hi-performance motor racing programs, like Formula-
    1, are using ceramic hybrids.
     Silicon Nitride ceramic balls are virtually
    indestructible, survive in thermal, heavy load, won't
    dent or rust, virtually unbreakable and will not wear
    or degrade over time.
    What is a Ceramic Hybrid Ball Bearing?

    We can achieve new


    Friction-reducing
    Ceramic ball bearings!
     A Ceramic Hybrid Ball Bearing made of ceramic elements
    from silicon nitride.
     Silicon nitride is a highly processed silica and ceramic
    material.
     The use of Ceramics for bearing components results in a far
    superior product.
    Types of Ceramic Ball Bearings

     Ceramic Hybrid Ball Bearings

     Partial Ceramic Ball Bearings

     Full Ceramic Ball Bearings


    Ceramic Hybrid Ball Bearings

    Features
     60% lighter than steel balls.
     50% higher modulus of elasticity.
     Tribochemically inert.
     Non-conductive.
     Less maintenance.
     Coefficient of Friction.
     Low Density.
     High Hardness.
     High Hot Strength.
     Low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion.
     Long Fatigue Life.
     Corrosion Resistance.
    Micro Weld
     Micro Weld occurs when microscopic surface
    "peaks" on the ball and race make contact and
    actually weld together.
     This occurs even with light loading and adequate
    lubrication.
     This results in higher temperatures, higher friction,
    and decreased life.
     The ceramic hybrid bearing cannot micro-weld to
    steel, thus eliminating the problem entirely.
    Technical Charts
    Applications
     Motor Racing.
     Motorcycle Racing.
     Machine tool applications.
     Aircraft accessories/aerospace.
     Industrial Machinery.
     Medical equipment.
    Some of the Ceramic Ball Bearings
    Conclusion
     Ceramic ball is tremendously harder than steel
    (Rockwell 78c versus Rockwell 60c for steel balls).
     Ceramic ball is 60% lighter than a steel ball.    
     Ceramic ball is much less prone to "skid".
     Ceramic ball is significantly rounder and has a finer
    finish than conventional steel balls.
     Operating temperature for ceramic is 2000 degrees F.
    versus 600 F. degrees for steel.
     Vibration levels of ceramic hybrid bearings average
    two to seven times lower than that of steel.
     Service life is two to five times longer than
    conventional steel ball bearings.
     25% of all electrical energy produced is used to
    power some type of electric motor. Imagine the
    savings in resources if all motors were to run with
    ceramic hybrid ball bearings!
