INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Main Housing Body

Precision aluminum CNC machined housing for bearing support in industrial machinery.

Component Specifications

Definition
The Main Housing Body is a critical structural component manufactured through CNC machining from aluminum alloys, designed to precisely house and support bearings in rotating machinery. It provides dimensional stability, thermal management, and vibration damping while ensuring proper alignment of bearing assemblies under operational loads.
Working Principle
Functions as a rigid enclosure that maintains bearing alignment through precise geometric tolerances, dissipates heat generated by friction, and transfers mechanical loads from rotating shafts to the machine frame while minimizing deflection and resonance.

Technical Parameters
  • Weight 2.5-8.5 kg
  • Hardness 95 HB (6061-T6)
  • Dimensions Custom per application
  • Load Capacity Up to 15 kN radial, 8 kN axial
  • Surface Finish Ra 1.6 μm or better
  • Operating Temperature -20°C to 150°C
Standards
ISO 286-2, DIN 718-2, ISO 1101
