The True Cost of Bearing Lubrication

Development of Orifice-type Aerostatic Thrust Bearing for Precision Machine

Air bearings are used in precision machines and measurement equipments for recently years. Unlike conventional ball or roll bearings, there is no physical contact between the sliding surfaces and the moving surface. Therefore, the structure with air bearings can glide smoothly on the other surface to avoid generating the small particles from the friction contact and also minimize the control ef...

a new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot

abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...

Self-acting Air-lubricated Bearing without Oil Lubrication

One of the advanced technologies incorporated into a micro gas turbine (MGT) is the dynamic air-lubricated (no oil lubrication) bearing. We investigated the performance characteristics of a self-acting air-lubricated bearing in a 50-kWe MGT. From the results of our experiments, we were able to clarify the following. (1) The thrust load of 300 N incurred by a 50kWe MGT cannot be supported by the...
