Abstract

Knowledge of issues related to the selection and dimensioning of roller bearings is extremely important in the work of engineers and designers, and from the point of view of the availability of available literature in this area, in general, is not at the level it should be. The main goal of this paper is to present the current procedures for the selection of roller bearings, to point out the most important factors to consider when choosing standard types of roller bearings, based on which their further selection can be significantly facilitated. Each type of bearing shows characteristic features, based on its design, which more or less make, or more or less correspond to the given conditions of application. Current methods and procedures for diagnosing the condition and maintenance of roller bearings as well as trends in their development will be presented. The paper deals with topics that show historical development of roller bearings, basic characteristics and types of roller bearings, selection and dimensioning of bearings, a diagnostic bearing condition inspection as a maintenance procedure is presented and described.
