The role of copper sleeves in machinery?

1. Fixed

When the gear shaft is moving, try not to let it shift in direction due to vibration. At this time, a copper bushing is needed to help it fix it. The important role of copper bushings in machinery is to fix the position, which is all the properties of copper bushings.

2. Sliding bearings

This is another role that copper bushings play in machinery. In order to reduce expenses and save costs, sliding bearings are needed at this time, and copper bushings just have this function. It mainly designs the thickness of the bushing for the sliding bearing according to the axial direction of the bearing. In fact, the copper bushing is a kind of sliding bearing. When the rotation of the machine is relatively low, it can be used in an environment with relatively high clearance requirements. Copper bushings operate instead of rolling bearings. The copper bushing has wear resistance and can be used for a long time, so this can help it save costs to a large extent.

Where are copper bushings mainly used?

The copper sleeve on the shaft acts as a bearing and belongs to the category of sliding bearings. It is a bearing that works under sliding friction. It rotates relative to the shaft and generally needs to be assisted by a lubricating system. Sliding bearings work smoothly, reliably and without noise. Under liquid lubrication conditions, the sliding surfaces are separated by lubricating oil without direct contact, which can greatly reduce friction loss and surface wear, and the oil film also has a certain ability to absorb vibration

The function is to lubricate, dissipate heat, reduce friction, prolong life and so on.

Copper sleeves are mainly used in machinery, printing and dyeing, papermaking, chemical industry, aerospace, coal, petroleum, automobile, construction machinery, metallurgy and other industries.
