A TEST BENCH FOR HIGH SPEED TRAIN AXLE BOX BEARINGS

BANC D'ESSAI POUR ROULEMENTS DE BOITES D'ESSIEUX DE TRAINS A GRANDE VITESSE

Different types of bearings are tested on a special test bench under identical operating conditions. The friction torque of bearings is measured for various combined loads. Temperature distribution is determined, and heat sources located. The behaviour of the bearings and different lubricants is also studied under real-life dynamic load conditions.
