| Abstract | Oil/air lubrication system is one of the lubrication methods for rolling bearings installed in steel making equipment. Recently, expansion of the application of this system has been accelerated not only for continuous casting machines but other applications because this system has been recognized by customers to be applicable to various conditions unique to steel making equipment. It has been confi rmed that oil/air lubrication applied to continuous casting machines signifi cantly reduces bearing wear. Also it is expected that the oil/air lubrication can contribute to energy saving due to minimum lubricant consumption and smaller starting and operating torque. Based on considerable experience as a diversifi ed bearing manufacturer, JTEKT has developed the optimum oil/air lubrication system for rolling bearings. This paper presents application examples and effectiveness of the oil/air lubrication system for steel making equipment. |
