KO Sieve and food/feed screening positions, vibration, contamination, and lubrication.
Food Machinery Bearing Selection
Food Machinery bearing selection starts with the machine position and complete existing designation. Check load direction, speed, temperature, lubrication, contamination, fits, misalignment, and failure history for that position.
Equipment and Bearing Positions
- Milling machines
- High square screens
- Feed crushers
- Mixers
- Granulators
- Grading sieves
Operating Conditions
- Dust
- Washdown risk
- Continuous production
- Lubrication method and cleanliness
- Shaft or housing misalignment
- Speed and temperature range
Failure Risks
- Incorrect fit or clearance can reduce operating clearance and raise bearing temperature.
- Contamination or unsuitable lubrication can damage raceways, rollers, and cages.
- Misalignment, shaft deflection, looseness, or overload can shorten service life.
Configuration Matrix
| Position | Operating condition | Configuration to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Milling machines | Dust | Model, load rating, bore, cage, clearance, fits, and lubrication |
| High square screens | Washdown risk | Open or sealed arrangement, contamination control, speed, and temperature |
| Feed crushers | Continuous production | Locating/floating role, misalignment, shoulders, mounting, and removal access |
Selection Checks
- Confirm the complete bearing marking, bearing position, shaft and housing arrangement, and locating or floating role.
- Check radial and axial load, speed, temperature, contamination, lubrication, fits, clearance, cage, and misalignment together.
- Include failure history, quantity, destination, required timing, and inspection or compliance files.
