Tilting Pad Bearings

Similar to the multilobe bearing the tilting pads will center and stabilize the shaft at different points. The geometry is optimized through a wide operating range by its self-adjusting property.
Our newly developed norixlager® is a tilting pad bearing of relatively simple design with further optimizations.

Applications
  • Circumferential speed up to 120 m/s
  • Load up to 3,5 MPa
Advantages
  • Very good attenuation ability and stiffness
  • Excellent stabilization of the shaft
