The conventional equations engineers use to calculate the rating life of a bearing do not reflect the real-world performance of hybrid designs.

Key Points: 
  • The conventional equations engineers use to calculate the rating life of a bearing do not reflect the real-world performance of hybrid designs.
  • To rectify this issue, in 2012 engineers at SKF started to develop what would become Generalized Bearing Life Model, or GBLM.
  • "SKF has always been at the forefront of developing new methods for calculating bearing life", says Guillermo Morales-Espejel, Principal Scientist at SKF Research and Technology Development.
  • SKF Bearing Select can be used to model hybrid deep-groove ball bearings and hybrid cylindrical roller bearings, and can be found at www.skfbearingselect.com
    More advanced calculations are available in SKF internal calculation tools to support application engineers in customer projects.
