The Design of High Speed Grease Lubricated Spindles for Machine Tool Production Equipment 901631
The use of high quality grease in conjunction with precision spindle bearings permits high rotational speeds. This paper will address the parameters which must be met to achieve such operating speeds: grease type, grease quantity, run-in procedure, maximum operating temperatures, overall bearing arrangement, and abutment dimensions. Guidelines will also be provided giving realistically attainable speeds.
