Bearing lifetime calculations

Based on your requirements, we will prepare an accurate bearing lifetime calculation for you.

Lifetime of rolling bearings depends on various factors such as load, rotational speed, lubricant, bearing precision and design, operating conditions, material used and maintenance. Its determination is an integral part of the work of our specialists.

Processes and procedures

Regular lubrication

We are using the procedures and formulas of ISO 281, so they assume regular lubrication of the bearing and its maintenance in optimum condition. These calculations also take into account the bearing wear rate as a function of the dynamic load.

Proper maintenance

It is important to remember that rolling bearing service life is a theoretical calculation and in real life conditions can be affected by many other factors such as proper maintenance, lubricant cleanliness, operating temperatures, and more.

Consult

We therefore recommend that you consult with our application-specific engineers to ensure the longest possible bearing service life.
