Agricultural machinery demands bearings that are able to withstand harsh environments, heavy loads, and continuous operation. Bronze bearings are a popular choice for agricultural equipment, including combine harvesters, planters, and strapping machines, due to their exceptional durability, wear resistance, and self-lubricating properties.

In combine harvesters, bronze bearings are often used in the threshing and separating systems. These areas of the machine are subject to heavy loads and frequent friction, making them ideal applications for bronze bearings. The durability of bronze bearings ensures that they can handle the rigorous demands of harvesting operations, while their self-lubricating properties reduce the need for frequent maintenance and replacement.

Planters, on the other hand, require precision and consistency in their operation to ensure optimal seed placement. Bronze bearings are commonly used in planter mechanisms to provide smooth and reliable rotation of the planting units. Their wear resistance ensures that the bearings maintain their accuracy over time, while their self-lubricating properties minimize friction and wear on the surrounding components.

Strapping machines, which are used in agricultural packaging operations, also rely on bronze bearings for smooth and efficient operation. The high-speed rotation and frequent stopping of strapping machines can place significant demands on bearings, but bronze bearings are able to handle these conditions with ease. Their durability and wear resistance ensure that strapping machines can operate reliably and efficiently for extended periods of time.

Overall, bronze bearings are an excellent choice for agricultural machinery due to their exceptional durability, wear resistance, and self-lubricating properties. They are able to handle the rigorous demands of combine harvesters, planters, and strapping machines, ensuring smooth and efficient operation over the long term.

Application characteristics

Reliable solution without lubrication

 
In agricultural equipment, bearings are subject to friction and wear during edge and boundary lubrication.Our bearings provide more reliable performance than copper bearings, with up to 620Mpa load capacity, protection shaft or pin will not wear, with good corrosion resistance, shock resistance and edge load capacity.
Avoiding the use of grease to reduce maintenance of self-lubricated bearings is the ideal choice for applications requiring a longer service life. Maintenance is free in the case of insufficient or non-lubricated operation.

•  improve performance and extend service life
•  excellent low friction performance
•  cost reduction
•  environmental protection
•  low system cost

Provides solutions to meet the specific needs of each application, providing a wide range of standard or specific bearings.
