Bearing software saves time, boosts accuracy

    Nov. 4, 2004
    Engineers involved with bearing application design and selection can benefit from Version 2.5 of Reali-Design software.

    The program shortens the selection process from hours to minutes (versus manual methods), while reducing error risk by accurately computing bearing life and loads, maximum safe operating speeds, and axial play due to internal clearances. A free copy of the Reali-Design V2.5 software is available on CD or can be downloaded. The software works on PCs running Windows 95 or later.
