At present, there are four main bearing test methods at home and abroad: 1. friction and wear test, second, test bench test, third, test room (test field) simulation test, and fourth, actual working condition operation test.
Foreign countries have used the above several test methods, but the application purpose is different. For example, to develop a brand new product, firstly, a friction and wear test must be performed. However, if there is not much change in the form of friction and wear, only the product size and load conditions change, only the bench, simulation or actual running test is needed. Foreign countries have very strict assessments of new products (such as car wheel bearings, etc.) in key parts, and must be tested in actual operation before they can be approved for use. Swedish SKF bearings, Japan NTN bearings, newly researched bearing simulation test technology, can only replace benches, simulations or experiments, to shorten the time of product design, speed up the progress of product development, but there is still a gap from the actual operation. At present, China's bearing industry has carried out friction and wear tests, only one of Luoyang Bearing Research Institute; has carried out bearing bench test, including Luoyang Bearing Research Institute, Shanghai Axis Research Institute, Hangzhou Bearing Test Center and Wafangdian, Harbin, etc. Yujiaguo has bearing enterprises; Luoyang Bearing Research Institute, Hangzhou Bearing Test Center, Luozhou, Xenxi and other enterprises can be launched for simulation test. In order to carry out the actual test, the bearing manufacturer will only carry out the requirements when the supporting mainframe enterprise puts forward this aspect, such as the wheel bearing of the railway passenger wheel to the bearing and the car. In short, the domestic implementation of simulation and actual operation test is not extensive, and should further expand the scope of the host or the actual working conditions, and prepare sufficient software and hardware for the simulation test to mention the schedule as soon as possible.
