How do plummer blocks differ from pillow blocks?
Both plummer blocks and pillow blocks are types of housed bearings designed to provide support for a rotating shaft. The primary difference is their usage and construction; plummer blocks are generally used for larger, heavier loads and in more industrial environments, whereas pillow blocks are more commonly used for lighter, more compact applications.
What types of pillow block bearings are available?
There are typically two primary types of pillow block bearings: those with a split housing and those with a solid housing. Split housings are designed for easier maintenance and replacement, while solid housings offer increased strength and support.
What are the benefits of using pillow block bearings?
Pillow block bearings are highly advantageous for several reasons. They provide excellent load support and reduce friction which helps in prolonging the life of machinery. Their design allows for quick and simple installation and maintenance, contributing significantly to operational efficiency.
