Agricultural Challenges
The agricultural equipment industry involves demanding operating conditions:
- harsh climatic conditions
- wide temperature range
- contamination, dirt, and dust
- corrosion
The risk of equipment failure due to wear is high. Constant high loads, including shock loads, lead to excessive wear. Friction caused by grease contamination accelerates the risk of premature failure and financial loss.
GGB's self-lubricating plain bearing solutions are specifically designed for demanding applications and offer the following benefits:
-
Low speeds / low high-loads
-
Pivoting locations
-
Shaft guidance
-
Maintenance avoidance
-
Elimination of constant greasing needs
-
Eliminate fretting debris
-
Oscillating motion
-
Load and shock resistance
