We are the manufacturer of split bearings to have our own integrated foundry, which allows us to provide the highest quality bearings and housings. Housings are manufactured and machined in a variety of configurations and in a variety of materials, for example; grey cast iron grade 250, nodular iron, steel, aluminium and stainless steel.
Applications
NEWORLD Cooper split roller bearings are used across a variety of industries and applications. Key advantages are ease of mounting,
inspection and replacement, as well as the superior effectiveness of the sealing system in the most adverse environments.
Belt conveyor
In trapped locations such as this, split bearings provide significant savings in maintenance and downtime, due to the elimination of the need to dismount and refit important associated components.
Belt conveyor
The pedestal unit in a trapped position on a cement conveyor graphically illustrates how the effective sealing system can provide long bearing service life in the most adverse environments.
Fans
The split to the shaft solutions eliminate the need to dismount associated components. Combined with the frictionless expansion accommodated by EX bearings, the split solution is ideal on long drive shafts or hot gas fans.
Screw conveyor
Solving the problems of shaft wear and product contamination from oil and corrosion from the use of sleeve bearings. A custom-built solution combined a triple boss hanger mounting with split roller bearings equipped with double sealing and air purge provision on each end. Cleanliness requirements during the final stage of transport of white sugar to the bagging area advocated the use of a custom-built 100 mm stainless steel hanger unit.
Bucket elevator
The Cooper flanged unit at a grain plant illustrates the advantages of split to the shaft solutions when performing maintenance tasks in cramped and inaccessible locations. Bucket elevator with 01 BCP 160 mm GR in trapped position for easier, cost-saving maintenance.
Stacker reclaimers
Cooper bearings up to 380 mm in diameter are used on the shaft of the bucket wheel as shown.
Ball mills
01 BCP 1016 mm EXILOG GR fitted to a 10 feet diameter Silica Mill. Split roller bearings offer considerable power savings compared to sleeve bearings.
Water turbine
01 BCF 380 mm EX was selected in conjunction with the OEM on this 11 000 kW vertical shaft ‘Kaplan’ turbine. Our product was chosen because of the simplified installation, inspection and maintenance.
Wind energy test rig
Split roller bearings offer shaft tolerance and energy consumption advantages compared to hydrodynamic sleeve bearings.
Marine propulsion
The ideal alternative to sleeve bearings for propeller shafts and water jets, split to the shaft bearings eliminate complex oil-feed systems.
Pilger mills
Our product offers extended bearing service life in this most demanding of applications.
Link spindles
Cooper double row 780 mm bore split tapered roller bearing on a link spindle for a rolling mill drive.
