High cost of vibration and pollution

In addition to regular contact parts and abrasive dust, the shaker also needs to withstand high vibration and heavy load. Many operators simply refer to frequent component failures as business costs.

If the shaker is a catastrophic failure, damage to the shaft and other components will result in maintenance, downtime, and costs for the equipment manufacturer related to quality assurance and customer relationship issues.

Spherical roller bearings -VA405 and VA406 are designed for vibration screens with inherent eccentric motion for equipment, such as vibration screens, requiring highly reliable bearing designs and materials to fully exploit their full life cycle potential. The SKF Explorer 'Explorer' spherical roller bearing VA405 or VA406 helps to maximize the service life of the bearing shaker.

Withstand vibration level 5g

Vibration level <5g, standard SKF Explorer spherical roller bearing has been proved to be effective. Vibration level 5 g VA405 or VA406 SKF Explorer spherical roller bearing can handle more. They can withstand higher accelerations than their standard counterparts.

VA405 or VA406 SKF "explorer" spherical roller bearings and all other SKF "explorer" bearings also have improved internal geometry and manufacturing procedures, which help greatly extend the bearing life.

Three solid cage system, radial internal clearance larger, with other bearings, as well as higher dimensional accuracy. In addition, PTFE coating on VA406 bearings virtually eliminates creep corrosion on the shaft. VA405 and 406 bearings operate at lower temperatures than conventional bearings, which helps extend the life of lubricants.

Extended bearing life reduced unplanned downtime reduced maintenance equipment reliability increased production efficiency SKF "Explorer" series performance level upgrade

All SKF spherical roller bearings have been upgraded to the new SKF seeker performance rating specification. It is characterized by the use of high quality steel and heat treatment process to improve the bond. The result: a fine balance of hardness and toughness that extends the life of the original SKF explorer series by twice. Advantages include increased running time, increased reliability, pollution prevention, increased productivity, and reduced noise and vibration levels.
