  • The slewing bearing load-bearing rotating platform is a mechanical device that is often used in equipment that needs to achieve heavy object support and rotation functions. This platform uses a slewing bearing as the core component, combined with a drive system and structural design, to carry heavy weight and perform stable rotation. The following are its main features and applications:

    Main components

    Slewing bearing

    The slewing bearing is the core component of the platform, usually composed of an inner ring, an outer ring, rolling elements (such as balls or rollers) and a spacer. It can bear axial force, radial force and overturning moment.

    Drive system

    Usually includes motor, reducer and gears to provide rotational driving force. It may be gear driven, chain driven or direct driven.

    Support structure

    Includes base and platform to support the slewing bearing and distribute the load.

    Control system

    Controls the speed, angle and direction of rotation to provide precise operation.

    Advantages

    1. High load-bearing capacity: suitable for heavy-duty occasions such as industrial machinery and large equipment.

    2. Multi-degree-of-freedom rotation: capable of rotation and tilt adjustment in different directions.

    3. Compact structure: space-saving and easy to install.

    4. Stable operation: adaptable to various working conditions, with good durability and vibration resistance.

    Application areas

    1. Industrial equipment: such as material handling equipment, assembly line turntables, etc.

    2. Construction engineering: tower crane rotation, concrete pump truck support, etc.

    3. Transportation: railway turntables, ship deck rotating platforms, etc.

    4. New energy: wind turbine yaw and pitch systems.
