Manufacturing of Babbitt White Metal Generator Bearing for BEZ Alternator
RA Power Solutions Pvt. Ltd. was approached by a company based in the USA regarding the development and manufacturing of a Babbitt white metal BEZ generator bearing. The BEZ generator bearing is fitted on a CKD Skoda diesel generating set. The generator shaft developed ovality due to continuous running of the diesel generating set. The BEZ alternator bearing got damaged, and as per the technicians, it required replacement.

The white metal grade for the babbitting of bearing used is 84 grade. Development and manufacturing of BEZ Alternator Babbitt white metal bearing.
Considering the urgent requirement of the client, RA Power Solutions took up the production of the bearing as a top priority. We forged the bearing shell due to the non-availability of raw material. After machining, we carried out babbitting of the white metal using the centrifugal process. This process ensures strong and dense bonding of the Babbitt metal with the steel lining. We then completed the final machining of the bearing and maintained all dimensions as per the client’s drawing.
RA Power Solutions’ capability of manufacturing Babbitt white metal bearings. We are a specialist in manufacturing Babbitt white metal bearings up to 1500 mm outer diameter. Our machines and processes are designed for handling bearings with different diameters, including the equipment to undertake the babbitting of white metal by centrifugal process. We are experts in developing the bearing by doing reverse engineering based on the sample of bearing provided to us, or manufacturing of bearing as per the drawing.
