Load transmission.
Rothe Erde large-diameter antifriction bearings are ready for installation, transmitting axial and radial forces simultaneously as well as the resulting tilting moments.
Fig. 1:
Large antifriction bearings are generally installed supported on the lower companion structure.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2:
Suspended installations require an increased number of fastening bolts. The bolt curves shown in the diagrams do not apply in such a case. Calculation to be carried out by RE.
