From the analysis of shaft-bearing indeterminate system, moment and misalingment angle which was generated in bearing were determined. And the influence of span length between bearings on the fatigue life was established. The equation to estimate the cage rotational speed was proposed, and this equation was verified by the measuring of cage speed and shaft speed. And accoding to quasi-static analysis, the spinning speed of ball was determined.

The analysis of statically indeterminate bearing-shaft system was investigated. The moment loads and misalignment angles which were induced in the ball bearings were determined, and the influence of span length of this system on the moment loads and fatigue lives was identified. The sliding and spinning speeds between balls and raceways which affected the performance of ball bearing evaluated. The equation to estimate the cage speed of ball bearing under moment loads was proposed. This equation had been verified by the test results of measuring of cage speed, which was useful to the prediction of ball bearing under moment loads.

공장을 신축할 경우 일반적인 설비계획 절차에 따라 제품설계, 공정 설계, 용량설계를 거쳐 Layout 설계로 이어지게 된다. 이 과정에서 용량설계는 공장에 설치할 기계의 적정 대수를 결정하고, 각 공정 사이의 재공품을 예측하여 저장장소의 적정 면적을 결정한다는 점에서 매우 중요한 단계라 하겠다. 이 논문에서는 볼베어링을 제조하는 D사의 신축공장 설계시 수행했던 용량설계를 위한 시뮬레이션에 대한 사례를 소개하고자 한다. 시뮬레이션의 주요 관심사는 당초 회사측에서 제시했던 설비들의 수량이 회사의 생산목표를 달성할 수 있는 지에 대한 검토와, 이를 해결하기 위한 방향 제시, 공정별 재공품에 대한 예측 등이다.

Recently a new process known as the magnetic fluid grinding has been developed, which can remove material from the surface of ceramic balls by fifty to one hundred times more rapidly than the conventional lapping process. In this study, the ceramic balls with various compositions are made and ground by using the magnetic fluid grinding technique with various machining parameters. In order to make well-round shaped balls by using the magnetic fluid grinding technique, the fundamental research to find out the machining factors has been carried out. Developing an equipment with higher efficiency and reliability in the machining could certainly lead to the higher productivity with excellent quality of ceramic balls.

This paper presents the dynamic analysis and experiment for a shaft system supported by angular contact ball bearings. Among others, the dynamic characteristics of bearings are significantly affected by axial preload and radial load applied. This paper rigorously analyzes the dynamic characteristics of a shaft system with angular contact ball bearings subject of axial preload so as to result in eigenvalues as well as bearing stiffness characteristics. Experiments are also performed to identify natural frequencies and stiffness characteristics of bearings implemented. Comparison is made on the theoretical and experimental results.

Ball bearings not only sustain the system, but permit the rotational component to rotate. Excessive radial or axial load and many other reasons can cause faults to be created and grown rapidly in each component. The grown faults make noise and vibration, which can make the system unstable. Therefore, it is important to detect faults as early as possible. For this reason, there have been many researches on fault detection method of early faults in a ball bearing. The fault defection methods can be categorized to several groups by signal processing methods. Not all the methods are efficient for finding early faults. We select representative methods known as efficient for detecting early faults and compare the results for inspecting which method is effective.

This paper presents analysis of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of ball bearings, in which surface roughness is considered. A lot of time is required to obtain a solution in the case of EHL analysis where surface roughness is considered, because the analysis requires a variety of analytic nodes. To save time, we use the full approximation scheme (FAS) among multilevel methods. We analyze the results of EHL and contact analyses in terms of pressure. We also compare the results for smooth and rough surfaces with respect to film thickness. We confirm that the film pressure decreases as compared to contact pressure because of the presence of lubricants between the ball and the raceway. Furthermore, in the case when surface roughness is considered, the film pressure increases because of contact asperities. Therefore, surface roughness should be considered when designing ball bearings.

This research investigates dynamic characteristics of a linear motion (LM) guide through a experimental result and theoretical analysis. The stiffness in the LM guide is determined by the preloading due to the minus clearance between the ball bearing and the contact surface and it can be derived by Hertzian contact theory and the nonlinear motion of equation. The vibration analysis is performed using Lagrange equations and its result agrees with the experiment result. Using the sensitivity analysis on design parameters such as the contact angles of ball bearings and the eccentricity of mass center, the variation of the natural frequencies can be predicted.

This research investigates how characteristics of ball bearing affect non-repeatable runout(NRRO) in a HDD spindle system at elevated temperature. It shows that the elevated temperature results in the increase of bearing contact angle and the decrease of bearing deformation due to the different thermal expansion rate of the components of the HDD spindle system. The increase of contact angle at elevated temperature is so small that the variation of bearing frequencies is negligible. On the other hand, the decrease of bearing deformation at elevated temperature reduces the stiffness of ball bearing and the natural frequencies of HDD spindle system consequently, which changes the amplitude and the frequency distribution of NRRO.

The ball bearings are the widely-used machine elements in many machineries. They support not only the radial and the axial force but also the moment in many cases. To simply determine the limit load which can be maintained on an ball bearing or survived in wanted life, the combined the radial and axial force with the moment is converted to the equivalent radial or axial load. However, it is not easy to calculate the equivalent load on the ball bearings. So the simplified equations to evaluate the dynamic and static equivalent load considering the axial force and moment are proposed in this analysis. And the modified equation for the static equivalent radial load with the moment and the axial load is proposed. It is desired that these equations are effectively refered in designing the machineries where the ball bearings are installed.
