INDUSTRIAL SLEWING RINGS INTRODUCTION

The information within this catalogue refers to the ISO standards that apply to slew ring manufacturing.
Four point contact slewing rings, due to the many different applications do not have a standard production; load
capacities can differ from one manufacturer to another due to the geometrical construction of each slewing rings.
The material used for the slewing rings construction in this catalogue is: C45N.

The specific conditions in which they operate can be:


• High axial load
• Tilting moments
• Radial load
• Slow and discontinuous rotation
• Horizontal work position

READING OF THE CHECK CHART

H O W TO DETERMINE THE EQU I VA L E N T L O A D S (F a . e q , M r. e q )

• Peq = equivalent loads point Fa.eq = Fa + 5,05 . Fr


Mr.eq = Mr.

Significance:
Fa = Nominal axial load (KN)
Fr = Nominal radial load (KN)
Fa.eq = Equivalent axial load (KN)
Mr = Nominal tilting moment (KN.m)
Mr.eq = equivalent tilting moment (KN.m)

• Pu = point of use Fa.u = Fa.eq . K.stat.


Mr.u = Mr.eq . K.stat.

Significance:
K stat = Safety factor
Fa.u = Axial load of work (KN)
Mr.u = Tilting moment of work (KN.m)

Please note: the Pu must be under the curve of the limit load chart

The ratio OM/OPu represents the nominal safety factor that must correspond to the value and specifications
imposed by the user.

The formulas for the preliminary choice of the slewing rings correspond to a hypothetical case with:

• Axle of vertical rotation


• Inferior speed to 1 turn / minute
• Work without shock
• Without considering the resultant load
of the gear
• For different application please refer to
our technical department.

Please note: in all cases, the customer


requirements in this section must be
confirmed by our technical department.

Significance:

• Dwp (m/m) = Center distance rotation.

ASSEMBLING AND MAINTENANCE

F I XING STRUCTURE

For an even distribution of the loads, we recommend a rigid steel structure with a minimum of resistance equal
to  = 500 N m/m2.
The figure above, indicates the minimum thickness of the support structure where H is the height of slewing
rings.

S U PPORT STRUCTURE TOLERAN C E S

For the best results it is recommended that the support structure is as flat as possible, but the chart below shows
the tolerances that can be used.

Dwp (m/m) 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 1100 1200 1300 1400 1500

Tp m/m μ 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

Dwp = Centre distance rotation of the spheres


Tp m/m μ = Tolerance of the structure
In all cases of tolerance adjustments, please use a special synthetic resin.

A X IAL DEFLECTIONS

After the fitting of the slewing rings it is good practise to verify the deflection under maximum load, making sure
the tolerances are within the parameters of the following chart.

Dwp 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 1100 1200 1300 1400 1500

Ra = tolerance of structure rigidity

To fix the slewing rings, use bolts class 8.8, 10.9, 12.9
tighten with a torque wrench using the guide below.

GEARED SLEWING RINGS

The fixing and the setup of the pinion must be as near to the red painted area as possible. This will give the
correct position to allow the maximum effect of the coupling play.
(g) Between the teeth that must not exceed g = 0, 04. Module

L U BRICATION

The most common grease used is lithium based (Ep) and corresponds to the standard: DIN 51825 K2K – 20
and ISO L-X-BCHA2. It is also possible to use equivalent greases working within the temperatures of -20 C° and
+ 120 C°.
Listed below are some of the equivalent greases recommended:

ESSO Beacon EP2


MOBIL Mobilux EP2
AGIP GRMU / EP2
SHELL Calithia EP2

Please note: lubrication must be periodical and based on the machine usage.
For low temperature application, special grease must be used.

W ORKING C ONDITIONS

Industrial slewing rings have optimal working conditions based within -20° and + 60°.
For any different requirements, please contact our technical dept: slewingrings@rimaspa.it
