TOM 06 B JOURNAL BEARING APPARATUS

The apparatus consists of a plain steel shaft excavated in a bearing and directly driven by a FHP Motor. The bearing is freely supported on the shaft and sealed at the motor end. The speed of the motor is controlled accurately by the speed control unit and it can be made run in both directions. The journal bearing has compound pressure gauge measure pressure at different point. The bearing can be loaded by attaching weights to the arm supported beneath it.
