About the Bearing Oscillation Group: A Key Consideration for Performance
Source: China Bearing Network | Time: 2014-06-19
As the technology in bearing manufacturing continues to advance, the importance of vibration and noise—key indicators of a bearing’s dynamic performance—is growing. Users are becoming increasingly aware of the impact that bearing vibrations and noise have on overall system performance, leading to higher demands for precision and quality. Bearing oscillation refers to the movement of internal components within the bearing during operation, including elastic deformation over time and the necessary motions for smooth rotation. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as bearing vibration. In terms of measuring the oscillation value of individual bearings, two main measurement units are currently used. One is the acceleration type, measured in decibels (dB), with group codes such as Z1, Z2, and Z3. The other is the velocity type, measured in micrometers per second (μm/s), with group codes like ZV1, ZV2, and ZV3. These oscillation groups are often indicated on the right side of the bearing code, providing critical information for selection and application. Vibration and noise in bearings are closely related. Vibration is the root cause of noise, while noise serves as an indicator of the level of vibration. Therefore, during the production and testing phases, it is essential to strictly control the vibration levels to effectively manage noise output. When selecting a bearing based on its oscillation group, it's important to consider the specific application requirements. For example, if a machine requires high smoothness, such as in a lathe spindle, it's crucial to choose a bearing that meets the appropriate oscillation group standards. In industries where both vibration and noise are critical, such as in automotive or aerospace applications, bearings must be selected accordingly to meet operational needs. Additionally, some applications, like household appliances such as fans, require bearings with low noise characteristics. Choosing the right oscillation group can significantly improve user experience and product reliability. Whether you're working on industrial machinery, automotive systems, or consumer products, understanding the oscillation group of a bearing is essential for optimal performance and longevity.
