Advanced Analysis for Wind Applications 

Through extensive testing of thousands of bearings, Timken has developed the Syber Bearing System Analysis, a proprietary method of calculating bearing life. This highly advanced software helps optimize gear box designs, predict potential damage modes and reduce development time and cost.

Syber accommodates all bearing types and 12 types of gear designs. Users can choose from more than 100 plots and animated graphics and performance models, including:

 

  • Contact stress along roller-race contacts
  • System deformation
  • Rib-roller contact dimensions and locations
  • Solid views of pressure on rollers
  • Life depletion
  • Power losses
  • Displacement of gear mesh points versus load conditions
     

Syber analysis results are based upon numerical simulation that has been generally confirmed with experimentation – saving users time and money related to component and system development.
