Kaydon RK Series Slewing Ring Bearings: Leading Supplier and Stockist of Kaydon Bearings in India.
Kaydon’s RK series slewing ring bearings offer versatile solutions for applications where large diameter and reduced weight are crucial. These bearings feature a flanged cross-section on one or both rings, resulting in a lighter design and granting equipment designers the advantage of Kaydon’s distinct adaptability. This flexibility allows them to accommodate different configurations of adjacent mounting structures and bolting arrangements.
Design Features
The internal structure features a deep-groove gothic arch raceway, providing four contact points with the balls. This allows the bearing to handle radial, axial, and moment loads simultaneously. By using spacer balls in combination with load balls, the bearing achieves lower rotational torque and excels in applications involving oscillatory movement. Integral face riding bearing seals are included to prevent the entry of contaminants.
RK series slewing bearings come in three configurations: nongeared, internally geared, and externally geared, offering maximum design flexibility. The gears have involute stub designs with 20° pressure angles, manufactured to AGMA Class Q5 quality, and allow for 0.005 to 0.015 inches of backlash. RK series turntable bearings are available in sizes ranging from 20 to 47 inches in outer diameter (500 to 1200 mm OD).
Applications
RK series slewing ring bearings have demonstrated effective performance in a range of applications with light to medium-duty requirements, such as:
- Small cranes, booms, and lifts
- Industrial positioners and rotary tables
- Chute swivels
- Stretch wrapping machines
- Bottle filling machines
- Conveyors and related material handling equipment
- Rotating displays
The Kaydon RK series slewing ring bearings offer several features that make them suitable for various applications. Here are some of the key features:
- Gothic Arch Raceway: The internal configuration of the RK series bearings includes a deep-groove gothic arch raceway. This design provides four points of contact with the balls, enabling the bearing to carry radial, axial, and moment loads simultaneously.
- Ball Arrangement: The use of spacer balls alternated with load balls helps reduce rotational torque, making the bearing suitable for applications involving oscillatory movement. This arrangement contributes to superior performance and efficiency.
- Flexibility and Configuration: The RK series slewing bearings are available in nongeared, internally geared, and externally geared configurations. This versatility allows equipment designers to select the appropriate bearing type for their specific requirements.
- Gear Design: For the internally and externally geared options, the gears feature involute stub designs with 20° pressure angles. The gears are manufactured to AGMA Class Q5 quality and allow for 0.005 to 0.015 inches of backlash, ensuring smooth operation and precise motion control.
- Size Range: The RK series turntable bearings come in a size range of 20 to 47 inches in outer diameter (500 to 1200 mm OD), providing options for various equipment sizes and applications.
- Load Capacity: Despite their light-weight design, the RK series bearings are designed to handle light- to medium-duty applications effectively. They are suitable for use in small cranes, booms, lifts, industrial positioners, rotary tables, and other similar equipment.
- Contaminant Exclusion: Integral face riding bearing seals are incorporated into the design to assist in excluding contaminants, ensuring the bearing’s longevity and reliability.
