Excuse me, is this a sliding bearing? What is the material of this bearing? In other words, this compressor uses sliding bearings for its radial bearings and corner joint bearings for its axial bearings. Please advise?
This bearing is also known as a shaft bushing; it functions as a sliding bearing, used to balance the radial forces of the screw, and is present on both sides of the screw. (Present on both the suction and discharge sides) It is commonly used by manufacturers of ice wheels; angular contact bearings (or thrust bearings) play a key role in balancing axial forces
I’ve learned it; thank you all for your generous sharing
