What is torque drive bearing?

Torque drive bearing refers to the sum of torque or twisting force that the bearing is subjected to during rotation. The magnitude of bearing torque depends on a variety of factors, including bearing type, size, material, lubrication, and operating conditions. Bearing torque directly affects the rotational resistance and energy loss of the bearing. Excessive bearing torque will increase the power consumption of mechanical equipment, reduce its efficiency, and shorten the service life of the bearing.

The speed dependence of torque drive bearing refers to the change in bearing torque as the speed increases. There are several factors that change with speed:
1. The relationship between friction loss and speed:
As the speed of torque drive bearing increases, friction loss usually increases. Because high-speed rotation increases the relative speed between the rolling elements and the raceways inside the bearing, resulting in increased friction.

2. Lubrication effect changes with speed:
At low speeds, the lubricating oil film may be incomplete, resulting in increased friction, thereby increasing bearing torque. At high speeds, the lubricating oil film can be better formed and maintained, thereby reducing friction and thus reducing bearing torque.

3. Dynamic effects inside the bearing:
When rotating at high speeds, the dynamic effects inside the bearing will significantly affect the torque. For example, the centrifugal force on the torque drive bearing bearing ball or roller will cause changes in the load distribution inside the bearing, which in turn affects the torque.

4. Thermal effect on torque:
When rotating at high speed, the heat generated by the internal friction of the torque drive bearing will increase, which may cause the viscosity of the lubricating oil to change and the lubrication performance to decrease, thus affecting the bearing torque.

5. Speed ​​characteristics of specific bearing types:
Different torque drive bearing types (such as ball bearings, roller bearings) may show different torque characteristics (e.g., torque, torque, etc.) in different speed ranges, which needs to be considered and optimized accordingly.
