Part of the bearings for axles and shafts that actively rotate are technical devices called bearings. They perceive axial and radial loads, transfer them to the body, frame or other parts of the structure. Bearings keep the shaft in space, allowing rotation, linear movement or swinging with minimal energy loss. It should be understood that the efficiency, the durability of the machine and the performance of the vehicle directly depend on the quality of the bearings.

The operation of the pilot bearing

In modern electric motors, bearings act as a shaft support. They maintain the required air gap between the stator and the rotor; transfer the loads to the motor housing from the shaft. The choice of a bearing of a suitable size, type, design provides a high-calculated efficiency of the electric motor. This is due to minimized friction and loss of power. In case of bearing failure and subsequent damage for small motors, repair actions are not economically feasible. Therefore, it is necessary to install quality SACHS brand Pilot Bearing, clutch that can withstand the appropriate loads.
