It’s often said that there is nothing new under the sun. Perhaps we simply tell old stories in new ways. That certainly could be said of the bearing; the fundamental design elements have not changed much in the last 132 years. But the bearing industry? Well, that’s a different story and there are more than a few plot twists in that narrative. To give our readers some insight and a little straight talk about what makes the industry move, we asked Rollon Corp. managing director Rick Wood for his take on the business of bearings.
Bearing Tips: What will be the most significant advance in bearings in the next 10 years?
Wood: Over the last 10 to 20 years, bearing manufacture has moved from high-cost countries to low-cost areas. New CNC processes had to replace many of the old automatic manufacturing machines. This changed the nature of the manufacturing processes and many factories became obsolete.
The next 10 years will bring more change, and bearing manufacture may return to higher cost countries that are geographically closer to bearings’ end-use markets. Shipping bearings across the sea is costly and that ties up time and cash in the transport process. Moving from batch processes to lean manufacturing will also make a more local source more timely and efficient. Lead times for customers are dropping and 16 weeks plus shipping from far away is no longer acceptable. Flexible design requirements also demand shorter lead times. However, changes in the raw material sources and supply chain (tube steel, linear guide rail cold rolled steel, steel shafts) will impact everyone. This might be the one area (not often visible to the market) which offers the greatest disruption to the bearing supply. As the supply chain goes through the boom and bust cycles, this is where shortages and surpluses often happen behind the scenes.
• Another prediction: Intelligence embedded into the bearing will be the next big thing with predictive failure and maintenance. I could envision the use of MEMS chips on bearings to sense vibration, temperature and possibly lube life, wired back to a machine controller which is monitoring the spindles for spikes, to predict an imminent failure. Sensors for position, travel and even crash could also be useful feedback to determine failure modes.
• We will see new competitors excel in the market while older competitors are merging and failing. Producers in low-cost regions will enter the market and manufacturers from former low cost regions will consolidate, sell or exit. I also anticipate that many of the larger and more mature producers will milk their product lines for high margin, while failing to enter into newer product spaces. We always think of our industry as one with high barriers to entry because of the high capital outlay required to produce. However, more companies enter every year and are getting up to speed with reduced ramp-up time. Specialists will also appear for assembly and modification of bearings (linear and round) and handle the tasks that the larger producers don’t want to do or cannot fit into their production system.
Bearing Tips: How have bearings changed, or for that matter not changed, since you got into the industry?
Wood: Not much has changed in the overall design since Mr. Fischer invented the ball manufacturing process in 1883. However, materials and ball applications have seen many iterations. We now see the industry’s greatest advances are in quality metrics, repeatability and low production costs.
Bearing Tips: What are some of the biggest bearing messes you’ve seen in your career and what could have been done differently to prevent the issue?
Wood: I think the price fixing in Europe and Japan which has yet to be settled in the US markets. Incredible fines coupled with people actually going to jail. Here are more details on the matter:
• AG Sues Ball Makers Over Price-Fixing
• KFTC punishes bearings cartel
• CCS fines first global cartel
• Collusion in the World Bearing Association
• European, Japanese bearing makers to pay more than €953 million
• Parts manufacturers plead guilty to price fixing
Bearing Tips: What are some best practices when working with bearings?
Wood: Design well. Pick the right bearing for the job and make sure it is properly protected and lubricated. Use a decent partner for the source. The cost difference between low and high-quality suppliers is small compared with the cost of failure. Delivery failure can be just as bad as product failure in the application.
Design for Delivery. Pick a common and available design, don’t be the only one in the world who uses that bearing.
Pay attention to the loads and dynamic elements of the system. Bigger is not always better since once things start moving around, all of that moving mass works against you for life.
Pay attention to where you put in your safety factors in sizing. 25% extra load capacity doubles life. Doubled load capacity extends life by eightfold. But often this extra load capacity makes other components bigger too, which increases the system’s moving mass … which then reduces life. That’s because 25% actual-load increase cut life by half. In other words, design for the right load, and apply the safety factor at the end of the equation, not in the beginning.
Bearing Tips: What advice do you have for people just getting into the industry or approaching mid-career?
Wood: You don’t get rich with the bearing industry, but if you know your stuff, you don’t become poor either. It is a fair and decent living that lets us work with, sell to, buy from and compete against mostly good people … from distributors and customers to other manufacturers.
Another point to remember: There is no magic pill with this stuff. Many people say, “Wow, you guys really know a lot about the products and industry,” and want us to teach them. So we do a seminar or two, and tell them as much as we can, and send them away. Three to six months later they ask, “Can you teach me everything you know about this stuff?” We ask, “What did you do with the last batch of information?” The response: “Uh, it’s around here somewhere … can we do a webinar or something?”
Here is a better approach:
• Listen to someone who knows their stuff about bearings (linear or round). Ask questions, and see where there might be differences between what they say and what you learn elsewhere.
• Go find catalogs for your product and all significant competitors, and then compare them.
• Ask your customer why he used a given bearing in the application, and why not another one.
• Teach someone what you learned.
• Go back to the beginning. Do it again.

The machine heater widely uses resistance heating, and uses thermocouples to realize segmented temperature control and detection. The resistance heating uses resistance to generate heat to the barrel, and then transfer the heat to the plastic in it. The method mainly includes strip heaters, cast aluminum heaters, ceramic heaters, etc., which have the advantages of small size, easy manufacturing and maintenance.
Lesun is one of the leading screw barrel suppliers in China, we have high quality screw barrels for sale at reasonable prices.
2. Temperature range of the extruder screw barrel
According to the different plasticization state of the material along the screw axis, the heating of the screw and the barrel must be carried out in sections to help improve the plasticization capacity in order to make the temperature distribution of the extruder barrel meet the process requirements. Generally, (3-5) Ds, (which is the screw diameter) is used as a heating temperature control section. The temperature control fluctuation range of heating should generally not exceed 5°C meanwhile for heat-sensitive plastics, the temperature should not be over 2°C.
3. Heating power of extruder screw barrel
When determining the heating power of the extruder screw barrel, it is also necessary to meet the requirements of productivity to ensure that the barrel has a sufficiently fast heating rate in addition to meeting the heat required for plasticization. The heating time of the machine is not more than 30 min for small machines, but generally about 1h for large and medium machines.
4. Cooling of extruder screw barrel
The design of cylinder cooling channel is adopted with a heat exchanger and a large stainless steel water tank. The cooling system shall choose softening water. Then, the cooling effect will be realized by controlling the flow of water in and out of the channel through the solenoid valve.

The extruder should be cleaned regularly after being used for a period of time. Because a long time of using，a lot of stains will be generated inside the barrel. If these stains accumulate for a long time, it will affect the normal use of the extruder and delay the production. Therefore, regular cleaning should be carried out to ensure the normal operation of the machine.
Then how to clean the barrel of the extruder? Common extruder cleaning methods are as follows:
1. If the raw materials used for injection products are changed frequently or the plasticizing temperature range between the residual materials and the replacement is large, the barrel cleaner is used to clean the extruder. How to clean extruder barrel to save material and improve work efficiency? Generally speaking, it is more economical to use the machine barrel cleaner. Special cleaning agent is a kind of material similar to rubber, not molten in the high temperature in the barrel. The special cleaning agent in the screw thread groove is a softening gelatinous shape. When moving forward in the screw thread groove, the residual material can be taken away so that the machine barrel can be cleaned.
2. Use the refueling ejection method to clean the extruder. If the plasticizing temperature range of the newly changed raw materials is higher than that of the residual materials in the extruder barrel, the barrel and the nozzle can be heated to the plasticizing temperature of the newly changed raw materials, then new refueling is added and continuously injected into the air until there is no residual materials in the barrel.
3. If the plasticizing temperature range of the residual materials in the cylinder is higher than that of the replacement, the cylinder shall be heated to the plasticizing temperature range of the residual materials in the cylinder to remove the residual materials. After the nozzle can be added to clean, put the new material production, if the product requirements are high, the new material of the first few molds can be scrapped treatment.
Note: As an experienced screw barrel supplier, Lesun will tell you how to clean the barrel of the extruder requires some considerations. When the extruder is cleaning, please pay attention to the internal structure to avoid damage to the cylinder during dismantling and washing, which will affect the later use. Only the proper cleaning of the machine, will make the production to continue, extend the service life.

In modern manufacturing, the advent of rapid prototyping has revolutionized product design and development. In particular, aluminum alloy rapid prototyping, with its unique advantages and flexibility, has become an important and indispensable tool for product designers in the design verification and product development process. This article will delve into how aluminum alloy rapid prototyping can bring multiple benefits to product designers.
Basic Principles of Aluminum Rapid Prototyping
Aluminum rapid prototyping is a manufacturing process that quickly turns aluminum alloy materials into complex prototypes or finished products through technologies such as CNC machining (CNC) or 3D printing. The core advantage of this technology is that it eliminates the need to rely on traditional molds and can generate high-precision physical models directly from digital design files. This not only saves time and cost in mold making, but also allows designers more freedom to explore a variety of complex and innovative designs.
Shorten Product Development Cycle
In a competitive market, the speed of product development often determines the success or failure of an organization. Aluminum rapid prototyping can significantly shorten product development cycles, allowing designers to validate and optimize their designs in a short period of time. In traditional manufacturing processes, tooling is often time-consuming, and if there are problems with the design, multiple adjustments are required, which is not only time-consuming but also costly.
In contrast, aluminum additive manufacturing can directly generate functional prototypes, allowing designers to quickly make multiple iterations to test the feasibility and functionality of their designs. This flexibility allows products to be brought to market faster to meet customer and market needs.
Improved Accuracy in Design Verification
Design verification is a critical step in the product development process, and aluminum rapid prototyping plays a particularly prominent role in this process. Aluminum prototypes are more representative than prototypes made from other materials because their mechanical properties are close to those of the final product. This allows designers to accurately test prototypes to more accurately assess the performance of a design.
For example, in the automotive or aerospace sectors, designers need to ensure that parts will function properly under high strength and stress. With prototypes made from aluminum additive manufacturing, designers can test their products in real-world environments and obtain more reliable performance data. This not only reduces the risk of design errors, but also improves the final quality of the product.
Promoting Innovation and Flexibility
Aluminum additive manufacturing offers designers great design freedom, allowing them to explore more innovative design possibilities. While traditional manufacturing processes are often limited by tools and materials, aluminum alloy additive manufacturing allows for complex geometries and unique designs.
The technology is particularly well suited for prototyping and small-volume production, allowing designers to quickly try out different design options and choose the optimal one. This flexibility not only inspires more creativity, but also makes products more unique and competitive.
Reduced Production Costs
Although the cost of aluminum alloy material is high, aluminum alloy rapid prototyping technology has a significant advantage in reducing the overall production cost. Traditional manufacturing processes are costly in terms of tooling, especially when it comes to small batch production. However, aluminum alloy rapid prototyping can process parts directly through CNC or 3D printing without the need for tooling, thus saving significant upfront investment.
In addition, the high precision and consistency of aluminum alloy rapid prototyping reduces material waste and rejects. This not only helps companies control their budgets, but also enables them to devote more resources to product innovation and optimization.
Improving Product Performance and Quality
Aluminum alloys are used in a wide range of industries for their excellent performance. Through additive manufacturing, designers are able to create prototypes that are strong, corrosion-resistant and have excellent thermal conductivity. These properties are critical to the performance and quality of the final product.
For example, in consumer electronics, aluminum alloy prototypes can mimic the thermal characteristics of a product, helping designers optimize the internal structure and improve the product’s thermal performance. In applications that require high strength and light weight, such as automotive and aerospace, aluminum additive manufacturing can provide strong support to ensure that products meet performance requirements while weighing less.
Supporting complex design and customization needs
As market demands become more diverse and individualized, product designers need to be able to respond quickly to the customization needs of different customers. Aluminum additive manufacturing has the advantage of supporting the realization of complex designs, whether it is complex geometries or multi-functional integrated components.
With Aluminum Additive Manufacturing, designers can offer customized solutions and deliver high-quality products in a short period of time. This not only improves customer satisfaction, but also enhances the competitiveness of the product in the market.
Environmentally friendly and sustainable
In modern manufacturing, environmental friendliness and sustainability have become important considerations. Aluminum additive manufacturing excels in this regard. Aluminum is a recyclable material that is produced with less material waste and lower energy consumption. This not only reduces the impact on the environment, but is also in line with the concept of sustainable development.
For product designers, choosing aluminum alloy rapid prototyping technology not only improves the performance and quality of their products, but also wins over more consumers through environmentally friendly manufacturing. This environmentally friendly manufacturing method has a high brand value in today’s market.
Reduce waste of resources
In addition to rapid production, another advantage of rapid prototyping is reduced waste. Due to the generated structure of the object, no large amount of waste is generated like other processes (such as cutting, grinding, milling or turning). Therefore, using rapid prototyping can also help you save resources.
Conclusion
Aluminum rapid prototyping provides product designers with comprehensive support from design verification to product manufacturing. Whether it is to shorten the development cycle, improve design accuracy, or promote innovation and reduce costs, aluminum alloy rapid prototyping has demonstrated its strong advantages and wide application prospects.
As technology continues to advance, aluminum alloy rapid prototyping will bring more possibilities to product designers in the future, enabling them to create more innovative, powerful products that meet market demands. The continuous development of this technology will further promote innovation and progress in various industries, bringing consumers a higher quality product experience.
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Faf du Plessis made a critical assessment of his side’s performance in the IPL this season, saying it “wasn’t one of the best teams in the competition” and “didn’t deserve to be in semifinal”.
RCB’s campaign in the IPL ended prematurely yet again with Shubman Gill’s blazing century helping Gujarat Titans to a six-wicket victory here on Sunday.
RCB have never won an IPL trophy and it would have rankled Faf all the more as, despite leading the run-getters’ chart, his efforts went in vain.
“I am so disappointed that our season ends there. If we take a hard look at ourselves, we’ll be honest in saying that we weren’t one of the best teams in the competition,” said Faf, who took over as RCB captain this season.
“We were lucky that there were some really good performances throughout the season but, as a whole (and) as a team, we probably don’t deserve to be in the semifinal, if you look at the period of 15-14 games,” said the South African in a post-match video posted by RCB on Monday.
A win for RCB would have denied Mumbai Indians a spot in the playoffs but GT, thanks to Gill’s heroics, chased down a competitive 198 set by the home team with five balls to spare.
“It (defeat) still hurts. I mean, we tried really hard tonight (Sunday) and unfortunately just fell short. Looking at some real positives in the form of Maxi (Glenn Maxwell) this year, the partnerships we had between myself and Virat (Kohli)… a 50-run partnership in probably every game, the consistency was remarkable.

“(Pacer Mohammed) Siraj had a great campaign, so some really, really high positives and some areas in the game where we were consistently not great, I think,” added Faf.
RCB head coach Sanjay Bangar said the team’s early exit despite some outstanding performances from Kohli, Faf and Siraj was difficult to comprehend.
“It is indeed very disappointing because there were some outstanding performances. We had to finish a couple of close games but couldn’t.

We found ourselves in a very tight corner towards the end but (it) doesn’t take away anything from the guys who preformed.” Kohli ended up with two centuries and six half-centuries, while Faf scored eight half-tons, though the poor performance of the middle order ultimately cost them the season. However, Bangar said that he was happy the team played some “attractive” cricket throughout the tournament.

“The performances put (up) by the team… we were really a fighting unit, a very attractive unit throughout the tournament, just that very disappointed that we could not progress in the tournament,” he added.
Take note, Manchester City: the bigger the match, the bigger the performance from Lautaro Martinez lately.
After scoring key goals against Benfica and city rival AC Milan to help secure Inter Milan a spot in the Champions League final, Martinez netted twice as the Nerazzurri produced a 2-1 comeback win over Fiorentina to defend the Italian Cup trophy on Wednesday.
It’s the second trophy that Inter has won this season after also beating Milan in the Italian Super Cup in January — when Martinez also scored.
After a couple of matches to finish up Serie A, Martinez and Inter will be aiming for one more trophy when they face City in the Champions League final on June 10 in Istanbul.
“In all honesty, I am moved, because for a couple of years we have been bringing trophies to this great club and we’ve got to continue this way,” said Martinez, who also played a big role when Inter won Serie A in 2021. “I want to keep contributing for Inter, because that’s what matters.”
Martinez now has a career-best 27 goals across all competitions for Inter this season, having also helped Argentina win the World Cup in December. He’s also the only player to have appeared in all 54 of Inter’s matches this season.
The match at the Stadio Olimpico was lively from the start as Nicolas Gonzalez put Fiorentina ahead three minutes in following a lapse by Inter’s defense. A cross from Jonathan Ikone was allowed to float across the area for Gonzalez to knock in at the far post.

Then Martinez took over to put Inter ahead before the break.
First, a perfectly placed through ball from Marcelo Brozovic set up the equalizer as Martinez ran onto the pass and scored with an angled shot into the far corner for his 100th goal with Inter. Then Martinez produced an acrobatic volley to redirect in a pass from Nicolo Barella.
Martinez also nearly produced another goal when he set up Edin Dzeko with only the goalkeeper to beat but Dzeko’s shot sailed high over the bar.

Fiorentina will play West Ham in the Europa Conference League final on June 7.
“We were hoping for a different result but this will serve as experience and preparation for what to expect on a mental level and how to handle the match for the Conference League final,” Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Italiano said.
It’s the ninth Italian Cup title for Inter, while Nerazzurri coach Simone Inzaghi has now won seven of his eight finals as a manager.
“We started poorly and had the wrong approach, which is rare for us, but the guys did well to stay in the game anyhow and then turn it around,” Inzaghi said. “The team is improving match by match.”

By reaching the final, Inter and Fiorentina had each already qualified for next season’s expanded Italian Super Cup, which will feature four teams that also include Serie A champion Napoli and the league runner-up.
The chants of “monkey!” at the Spanish soccer stadium echoed across the Atlantic, reaching the ears of people on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro.
That’s where Vinícius Júnior, who is Black, grew up and launched his soccer career. Now, despite his global fame and millions, he was again the target of crude European racism.
His city in multiracial Brazil was sickened, and has rallied to his defense.
In Sao Goncalo, rapper Deivisson Oliveira was eating breakfast when the TV news showed the abuse aimed at his hometown hero.
“I needed to cry out,” said Oliveira, 30, who raps under the name MC Menor do CPX.
Oliveira typed lyrics on his phone with his 6-month-old son at his feet. Powerful verses surged through his thumbs: “From the favela to the world: Strength, Vinícius Júnior!” Racism in the Spanish league has intensified this season, especially after Vinícius started celebrating goals by dancing.
On at least nine occasions, people have made monkey sounds at Vinícius, chanted the slur “monkey!” and hurled other racist slurs. Vinícius has repeatedly demanded action from Spanish soccer authorities.

Vinícius’ 2017 move to Real Madrid was the culmination of years of effort. One of the most popular clubs in global soccer paid 45 million euros (about $50 million) — at the time the most ever for a Brazilian teenager — even before his professional debut with Rio-based Flamengo.
Relentless racism wasn’t part of Vinícius’ dream when he was growing up in Sao Goncalo.
Sao Goncalo is the second-most populous city in Rio’s metropolitan region, and one of the poorest in the state of Rio de Janeiro, according to the national statistics institute. At night in some areas, motorists turn on their hazard lights to signal to drug-trafficking gangs that the driver is local.

It is also where the 2020 police killing of a 14-year-old sparked Black Lives Matter protests across Rio.
Racism has once again fanned outrage.
Rio’s imposing, illuminated Christ the Redeemer statue was made dark one night in solidarity. The city’s enormous bayside Ferris wheel this week exhibits a clenched Black fist and the scrolling words: “EVERYONE AGAINST RACISM.” “My total repudiation of the episode of racism suffered by our ace and the pride of all of us in Sao Goncalo,” the city’s mayor, Nelson Ruas dos Santos, wrote on Twitter the morning after the incident.
Rio’s Mayor Eduardo Paes was less diplomatic when responding to a defense issued by the Spanish soccer league’s president.
“Go to hell, son of a…” Paes wrote.
On Thursday, Spanish league president Javier Tebas held a news conference claiming that the league has been acting alone against racism, and that it could end it in six months if granted more power by the government.
At the same time in Rio, representatives of more than 150 activist groups and nonprofits delivered a letter to Spain’s consulate, demanding an investigation into the league and its president. They organized a protest that evening.

“Vinicius has been a warrior, he’s being a warrior, for enduring this since he arrived in Spain and always taking a stand,” activist Valda Neves said. “This time, he’s not alone.” The first Black Brazilian players to sign for European clubs in the 1960s met some racism in the largely white society, but rarely spoke out. At the time when Brazil still considered itself a “racial democracy,” and did not take on the racism that many faced.
In the late 1980s, the federal government made racial discrimination a crime and created a foundation to promote Afro-Brazilian culture. At the time, many Brazilian players who might identify as Black today did not recognize themselves as such. Incidents of racism in Europe prompted little blowback in Brazil.

In the decades since, Brazil’s Black activists have gained prominence and promoted awareness of structural racism. The federal government instituted policies aimed at addressing it, including affirmative-action admissions for public universities and jobs. There has been heightened consciousness throughout society.
In 2014, a fan hurled a banana at defender Dani Alves during a Spanish league match; he picked it up and ate it in a show of defiance, triggering a coordinated social media campaign with other Brazilian players, including star forward Neymar, who did the same.

Vinícius’ own educational nonprofit this week launched a program to train public school teachers to raise awareness about racism and instruct kids in fighting discrimination.
A teacher at a Sao Goncalo school that will host the project, Mariana Alves, hopes it will provide kids much-needed support and preparation. She spoke in a classroom with soccer-ball beanbag chairs strewn about, and enormous photos of Vinícius on the walls.
Most of the school’s students are Black or biracial, and many have experienced racism, Alves said in an interview. This week, her 10-year-old students have been asking if she saw what happened to Vinícius because they don’t fully understand.
“He has money, he has all this status, and not even that stopped him from going through this situation of racism,” said Alves, who is Black and from Sao Goncalo.
“So the students wonder … Will I go through that, too? Is that going to happen to me?’” As a boy, Vinícius started training at a nearby feeder school for Flamengo, Brazil’s most popular club, before signing with its youth team.
Sao Goncalo kids there were a blur Wednesday afternoon as they ran non-stop drills, leaving them without time or breath to discuss their idol’s troubles on another continent.
Still, they knew.
One of them, Ryan Gonçalves Negri, said he has talked about it with his friends outside the soccer school, and that Vinícius should transfer out of the Spanish league “urgently.” “I would never want to play there,” Negri, 13, said. “It’s not for Brazilians who know how to score goals and celebrate.”
While the kids practiced, the rapper Oliveira and his producer Éverton Ramos, known as DJ Cabide, stepped onto the turf and made their way to the corner.
They set up a speaker beneath a banner of Vinícius as a brash teenager with his tongue extended, then started recording a clip for their protest song’s music video.

“I’m no one, but my voice can reach where I can’t go, where I can’t imagine going,” Oliveira said. “My voice will get there, you understand?”
After getting a couple of early reprieves, Gujarat Titans lost their talismanic opener Shubman Gill early in the final of the Indian Premier League on Monday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, thanks to some magic from Chennai Super Kings’ MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja.
Shubman, who took the Orange Cap for the highest run-scorer of the season in Qualifier 2 last week, was looking in fine form in the final, having scored 39 off 19 balls. This included three consecutive boundaries off a Tushar Deshpande over.
But in the last ball of the seventh over, Jadeja bowled a flatter and fuller delivery at Gill which enticed him forward. But the turn beat his edge and sneaked into the hands of Dhoni, who wasted no time in whipping off the bails. It was the 300th T20 dismissal for Dhoni in what is his 250th IPL game.
As soon as he made the stumping, the umpire went upstairs. Jadeja was unsure, asking Dhoni if that was out. Dhoni nodded.
