Aviation Engine Bearings: The Critical “Heart Components” of Aircraft
Aero-engines are known as the heart of an aircraft. Their performance directly determines the safety and service life of the plane. Bearings are among the key components that keep this “heart” running steadily. The bearings in aero-engines operate under extremely harsh conditions: they must withstand high temperatures and high-speed operation, adapt to rapidly changing loads, […]
FODA BEARING: Research on Microstructure Refinement & Defect Control of 8Cr4Mo4V Aviation Bearing Steel by Hot Extrusion
As the second-generation aviation bearing steel, 8Cr4Mo4V is the most widely used core material for aero-engine main shaft bearings in China. At present, the third and fourth-generation new bearing steels are still in the research stage and far from large-scale application. Therefore, tapping the potential of the second-generation bearing steel and improving its microstructure and […]
