Machining for Simple Single Bearing Supports (SB)

  • Simple radial supports
  • Designed for radial loads only
  • Float of bearing in the housing allows for thermal shaft expansion
  • Predrilled for face or foot mounting

Machining for Simple Double Bearing Supports (DB)  

  • Simple support
  • Designed to support a combination of radial and axial loads
  • Predrilled for face or foot mounting
  • Industry standard for interchangeability

Machining for Fixed Double Bearing Supports (FB)  

  • Fixed bearing supports increase angular dynamic system stiffness
  • Allow greater compressive column strength
  • Increase effective length of column and critical speed capability of system
  • Designed to support a combination of radial and axial loads
  • Predrilled for foot mounting
  • Predrilled taper pin reaming to suit final assembly
