PDH CREDIT: 2
COURSE PROVIDER: Robert Tata, P.E.
Roller Bearing Application: A Case Study
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course takes the reader through an actual case study of the application of cylindrical roller bearings. It provides the steps necessary to specify cylindrical roller bearings in supporting a spur gear shaft. It explains how to specify the correct bearing pair given the operating life, size, and assembly procedures needed in a specific design package. It concludes with drawings of cylindrical roller bearings in mechanical equipment with expert analysis.

 

This 2 PDH online course is intended for Mechanical Engineers, Automotive Engineers, Design Engineers, Civil Engineers, and any other discipline interested in rolling contact bearings, machine design, or mechanical power transmission.
