ISO 15243:2017(E) ISO 2017 All rights reserved 7 Introduction In practice, damage and/or failure of a rolling bearing can often be the result of several mechanisms operating simultaneo
38、usly. The failure can result from improper transport, handling, mounting or maintenance or from faulty manufacture of the bearing or its adjacent parts. In some instances, failure is due to a design compromise made in the interests of economy or from unforeseen operating and environmental conditions
39、. It is the complex combination of design, manufacture, mounting, operation and maintenance that often causes difficulty in establishing the root cause of failure. NOTE Be aware that counterfeit bearings are circulated in the market. They might look as original bearings, but their use often lead to
40、very early damage or failure. In the event of extensive damage to or catastrophic failure of the bearing, the evidence is likely to be lost and it will then be impossible to identify the root cause of failure. It is therefore important to stop equipment in time to enable appropriate bearing damage a
41、nalysis (see Figure 1). In all cases, knowledge of the actual operating conditions of the assembly and the maintenance history is of utmost importance. NOTE The spall started just behind the dent in the raceway a). Over a period of time, the spalling becomes more severe b) and c). If not stopped in
42、time, the proof of the root cause disappears d). Figure 1 Progression of bearing damage The classification of bearing failure established in this document is based primarily upon the features visible on rolling contact surfaces and other functional surfaces. Consideration of each feature is required
43、 for reliable determination of the root cause of bearing failure. Since more than one failure mechanism may cause similar effects to these surfaces, a description of appearance alone is often inadequate for determining the cause of the failure. In such cases, the operating conditions need to be cons
44、idered. In some cases, the analysed damage is too advanced, and can be originated from different primary causes. In these cases, it is interesting to look for simultaneous presence of indications to determine the primary cause of the failure. This document covers rolling bearings having steel rings
45、and rolling elements. Damage to the rings of bearings with ceramic rolling elements shows similar failure modes. In this document, bearing life is as described in ISO 2811, which provides formulae to calculate bearing life taking a number of factors into consideration, such as bearing load carrying
46、capacity, bearing load, type of bearing, material, bearing fatigue load limit, lubrication conditions and degree of contamination. ISO 15243:2017(E) ISO 2017 All rights reserved 8 Rolling bearings Damage and failures Terms, characteristics and causes 1 Scope This document classifies different modes
47、of failure occurring in service for rolling bearings made of standard bearing steels. For each failure mode, it defines and describes the characteristics, appearance and possible root causes of failure. It will assist in the identification of failure modes based on appearance. For the purposes of th
48、is document, the following terms are explained: failure of a rolling bearing: the result of a damage that prevents the bearing meeting the intended design performance or marks the end of service life; in service: as soon as the bearing has left the manufacturers factory; visible features: those that
49、 are possible to observe directly or with magnifiers or optical microscopes, also those from pictures, but only with the use of non-destructive methods. Consideration is restricted to characteristic forms of change in appearance and failure that have well-defined appearance and which can be attributed to particular causes with a high degree of certainty. The features of particular interest for explaining changes and failures are described. The various forms are illustrated with photographs and the most freque
