Self-aligning ball bearings are a specialized type of bearing designed to handle misalignment between the shaft and housing. The key feature of these bearings is that the outer ring raceway is spherical, allowing the bearing to self-align and compensate for any axial misalignment caused by deflection or misalignment in the shaft or casing. These bearings are primarily designed to support radial loads, but they can also handle axial loads to a certain extent. One of their main advantages is the ability to maintain proper alignment even when the inner and outer rings are not perfectly aligned. This makes them ideal for applications where perfect coaxiality is difficult to achieve. Additionally, self-aligning ball bearings have an active centering function, which ensures smooth operation even if there is slight misalignment. This feature helps reduce wear and extends the service life of the bearing. They are commonly used in machinery where flexibility and reliability are essential, such as in conveyor systems, pumps, and agricultural equipment. It's important to note that while these bearings offer excellent performance under misaligned conditions, the axial displacement of the shaft (or housing) should still be within the clearance limits specified by the manufacturer. Proper installation and maintenance are crucial to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
