1, the design is flexible, simple, convenient, wide range of use:
Fuel supply system in the engineering design is a piece of work, time-consuming setup, using solid lubrication bearings do not need to consider when designing refueling device, save the refueling devices, as well as for a wide variety of special occasions, solid self-lubricating bearing design into various shapes, in order to satisfy various occasions, using solid self-lubricating bearings, can greatly reduce the mechanical maintenance, oil and other expenses.
2, no oil can be used:
Due to the linear expansion coefficient of solid lubricant is greater than the metal matrix, so when the solid self-lubricating bearings, when we started running on the oil film will shift to a grinding and realize self-lubrication, so solid self-lubricating bearings can be used in the place where is hard to go and can’t go or grease, even in the case of low speed and high load, also can have good lubrication effect.
3. Low use cost:
The traditional mechanical design, in a certain operating time, want to often come on maintenance, check the oil, the oil supply device was clear, the body itself and the surrounding environment pollution caused by regular gas, result in an increase in maintenance costs, realize self-lubrication, not only can realize the environment clean and tidy, and greatly reduce the cost of the use of lubricating oil.
4, under the condition of high load and low speed, can play the superior performance:
Solid self-lubricating bearing is centrifugal casting of high strength brass substrate, have the effect of bearing load, with special formula with good lubricating graphite lubricant, self lubricating effect, so it combines the advantages of their own, even in the case of high load, low speed, can produce superior performance.
5, Reciprocating motion, rocking motion, starting and stopping frequent oil film formation difficult places, can play a superior wear resistance:

Self-lubricating bearing manufacturing Process and Principle, Special production process

Due to the requirements of special production technology, some key equipment in industrial and mining enterprises are running under extremely bad working conditions. Due to the heavy equipment, high temperature, dust or air containing acid corrosion in gas CO, SO2, etc., bring many problems of equipment lubrication, friction and wear serious, most of the domestic enterprises is still using the traditional oil, grease, and the fact that the industrial and mining condition is beyond the scope of oil, grease, easily happened bearing and other friction pair of bite or bite dead, Causes serious parts wear and damage, often leading to equipment outage.

In order to run the production continuously, a large number of maintenance personnel must be invested in addition to the installation of several equipment on the original design. It seriously restricts the increase of productivity, and the consumption of spare parts and energy is great, which has become an important obstacle to the development of production. Automobile manufacturing, cement production, petrochemical and other enterprises have put forward the requirements of providing special lubricating materials under complex working conditions.

Therefore, the research on the inlaid self-lubricating composite material has highlighted its own characteristics in the material formulation and preparation process, and the material properties have reached the international advanced level, which has solved the lubrication problem under special working conditions for enterprises and brought obvious economic and social benefits. However, due to a variety of reasons, more domestic enterprises have not adopted the above situation still exists.

Key technical principles

The composite material used in the inlaid self-lubricating bearing is a new type of extreme pressure resistant solid lubrication material, which is composed of a metal substrate and a solid lubricant paste embedded in the hole or groove of the substrate. Metal substrates bear most of the load during the friction process. After friction, solid lubricants in holes or grooves transfer or reverse transfer to the friction surface, forming solid transfer film with good lubrication, firm adhesion and uniform cover on the friction surface, which greatly reduces friction and wear. As the friction progresses, the embedded solid lubricant is continuously provided on the friction surface to ensure the good lubrication of the friction pair during long-term operation.

Understanding the types of bushings and determine which one is best for your needs.We consistently monitor our standard-stocked inventory options and production processes to ensure that we remain the supplier of choice for our customers.we have earned a reputation for meeting customer requirements for reliability, availability and value.Developing lubricating bearings material with good wear- high load-bearing capacity and self-lube of wear surface is one of the important questions in tribology. Tribological Coatings,Providing design freedom for more efficient tribological surface solutions.It is the science of friction, wear and lubrication between moving surfaces.Self-lubricating Bearings Material technology and material surface engineering play a key role in solving friction problems. Self-lubricating bearings are divided into composite material self-lubricating bearings, solid inset self-lubricating bearings, bimetal material self-lubricating bearings, special material self-lubricating bearings. According to different uses and working conditions, different self-lubricating bearings are selected. One big category of solid inlaid self-lubricating bearings (JDB for short) is a kind of novel lubricating bearings with both the characteristics of metal bearings and oil-free lubricating bearings. The metal matrix bears the load, and the special formula of solid lubricating materials plays the role of lubrication. It has high bearing capacity, impact resistance, high temperature resistance, strong self-lubricating ability and other characteristics, especially suitable for heavy load, low speed, reciprocating or swing and other difficult to lubricate and form oil film occasions, also not afraid of water and other acid erosion and erosion. The products have been widely used in metallurgical continuous casting machine, steel rolling equipment, mining machinery, die, hoisting machinery, textile machinery, wind power generation, ship, steam turbine, water turbine, injection molding machine and equipment production line. The wear resistance is twice that of ordinary bushing.
