General Technical Information Slewing Bearings SUPPORT STRUCTURES Design of the Support Structure The slewing ring has a limited axial stiffness: the diameter is large compared to the cross section. It must be mounted on a machined supporting base, ensuring sufficient stiffness with regard to the loads to be transferred. This makes it possible to ensure an even distribution of stresses and to avoid any deformation during operation, which would be harmful to the good working of the bearing. Therefore, it is necessary to use supporting bases with a minimum thickness not less than the values indicated in the table above. The width of the supporting surfaces is to be at the least equal to that of the ring Raceway average 500 750 1000 1250 1500 2000 2500 3000 4000 5000 6000 (mm) Minimum thickness 25 30 35 40 50 60 70 80 100 120 150 (mm) We strongly advise not to use structural reinforcement ribs on the support structures. For better loading distribution, thick circular flanges are preferred. The best distribution of forces can be achieved when roller is in line with tubular support structure 1 of 10 SUPPORT STRUCTURE TOLERANCES Shape defects of the supports lead to deformation of the raceway. This can cause tight spots or possible deformation and will reduce the bearing service life. The maximum flatness defects must not exceed the values of the following table.
