Spherical-roller and toroidal bearings are a good choice in applications with a combination of heavy loads, misalignment, and shaft deflection. In coupling drives, ...

SKF's Kellstrom devised the Carb toroidal roller bearing and put the equations that define its details into the MathCAD library. The bearing combines the self aligning capability of a spherical ...

There were no commercially available induction heaters that could uniformly heat the 2,700kg CARB bearing and the 3,320 kg spherical roller. This meant that when the bearings and their two 8,000 ...
