White Metal Bearings in Panama | RA Power Solutions

Introduction:

White metal bearings play a vital role in the smooth and efficient functioning of industrial machinery. These specialized bearings are designed to withstand heavy loads, high temperatures, and extreme operating conditions. In Panama, where various industries thrive, the significance of white metal bearings cannot be overstated.

White metal bearings have vast applications. They are commonly used as engine bearings and bearings for turbines, pumps, crankshafts, alternators, etc. The white metal bearing has the basic property of reducing friction between the moving part and the bearing that can provide support to the crankshaft, camshaft, turbine shaft, alternator shaft, pump shaft, or any other type of shaft.

Whether it is in manufacturing plants, power generation facilities, or marine applications, white metal bearings provide essential support and ensure the reliable operation of rotating machinery. 

From turbines to motors, pumps to compressors, these bearings enable seamless movement while minimizing friction and wear. In this section, we will share the importance of white metal bearings.

We will explore their benefits over other types of bearings and highlight their specific use cases across different sectors. By understanding the importance of these specialized components, businesses can make informed decisions when it comes to maintaining and optimizing their machinery’s performance.

So let us now embark on a journey through the world of white metal bearings and discover how they contribute to the success of Panama’s industrial landscape.

The Advantages of White Metal Bearings for Improved Performance and Reliability

White metal bearings offer various advantages when it comes to improving performance and reliability in various industries. In Panama, the utilization of white metal bearings has gained meaningful attention due to their exceptional characteristics and benefits.

One of the key advantages of white metal bearings is their superior load-carrying capacity. These bearings are designed to withstand heavy loads, making them suitable for demanding applications in industries such as mining, construction, and marine operations. Their ability to handle high loads provides a reliable and stable operation even under extreme conditions.

Another amazing advantage of white metal bearings is their exceptional resistance to wear and friction. The composition of white metal, which typically includes materials like tin or lead alloys, provides excellent lubrication properties that reduce friction and minimize wear between moving parts. This results in extended bearing life, reduced maintenance requirements, and enhanced overall performance.

In Panama’s humid climate or marine applications where saltwater can pose a challenge for traditional bearing materials, white metal bearings offer a perfect solution by ensuring long-lasting performance even in harsh conditions.

Additionally, white metal bearings have the advantage of being easily repairable or re-lined if required. Instead of replacing an entire bearing assembly when damage occurs or wear becomes significant over time, these bearings can be restored by replacing just the lining material.

The benefits offered by white metal bearings make them a preferred choice for industries in Panama seeking improved performance and reliability. Their ability to handle heavy loads while providing incredible resistance to wear, corrosion, and oxidation ensures optimal functionality even in challenging environments. With easy repairability options available when needed, these bearings prove to be a cost-effective investment that improves operational efficiency across various applications.

Rebabbitting of Old Turbine Bearing | Repair of Turbine Bearing | Babbitt White Metal Bearing Manufacturing Company

RA Power Solutions was approached by a steel manufacturing company located in the western part of India for the problem faced by them in turbine bearing. The technicians with the necessary instruments were deputed to the site and an inspection of damaged white metal turbine bearings and turbine shaft was conducted.

Following are the main observations:-

Turbine bearing inspection

  • The turbine bearing was removed from the shaft, and it was observed that the white metal from the bearing was partially removed.
  • The portion of the turbine bearing was exposed to heat and was turned into a blackish colour.
  • The deep bearing line marks were observed on the rest of the bearing’s inner diameter.

Observations on turbine shaft:-

  • The turbine shaft was calibrated, and the dimensions, taper, and ovality were observed within limits as specified in the manufacturer’s manual.
  • Line marks were observed on the turbine shaft bearing sitting area.
  • The surface finish of the turbine shaft, and bearing sitting area, was checked and found rough.

Action taken by RA Power Solutions to put the plant back into operation in minimum possible time:-

  • The turbine bearing was sent to our workshop for inspection and rebabbitting purposes.
  • After thorough inspection for hardness, and crack by MPI method, the rebabbitting of the bearing was undertaken.
  • The turbine shaft bearing sitting area was polished by the latest generation of onsite polishing machines.
  • The bearing line marks were removed and the surface finish of the bearing sitting area of the turbine shaft was maintained to less than 20 RA value.
  • After the final machining of the white metal babbitt turbine bearing inner diameter, the bearing was dispatched and assembled at the site.
  • The turbine was put back into operation in the minimum possible time.

The broad details of turbine bearings are as following:-

S. No.DescriptionsDimensions Observed
1Bearing Inner Diameter430 mm
2Bearing Outer Diameter690 mm
3Bearing Total Width360 mm
