Causes of cage breakage:
1. Poor material quality: The material of the bearing cage may be defective or unqualified, causing the bearing cage to break easily.
2. Improper machining process: The manufacturing process of the bearing cage is unreasonable or the operation is not standardised, which may lead to uneven stress distribution inside the bearing cage, resulting in bearing cage fracture.
3. Improper mounting: If the bearing is mounted improperly, it will carry an uneven load and cause the cage to break.
4. Excessive bearing life: When the bearing reaches or exceeds its life limit, the cage may break due to excessive fatigue.
Solutions to bearing cage fracture:
1. Material selection: Select bearing cage materials of reliable quality and in accordance with standards.
2. Proper manufacturing: strictly follow the manufacturing process of bearing cages and pay attention to the operating specifications.
3. Correct assembly: Assemble the bearing in strict accordance with the specified assembly procedures to ensure the correctness and safety of the assembly.
4. Periodic inspection and replacement: periodically check the condition of the bearing cage and replace it when necessary to ensure normal operation of the bearing.
