How to support a shaft? The motor just turns the shaft. It doesn’t provide any support.
What are the loadings on the shaft? • Is the shaft mounted vertical or horizontal? • Is the motor turning a drive screw? • How do you provide radial and vertical support? • Bushings • Thrust bushings • Radial load bushings • Bearings • Radial ball bearings • Angular contact ball bearings • Roller bearings Selection is based on combination of load and number of revolutions for bearing life.
