The function and damage causes of harvester gearbox bearings

The harvester gearbox is an important part of transmitting the power output from the engine to the header and harvester to complete the harvesting operation. The bearing is responsible for supporting and rotating. Therefore, once the bearing is damaged, problems will occur in the components within the gearbox, resulting in the harvester being unable to operate normally.


There are many reasons for bearing damage, which may be long-term use and wear, or damage caused by external impact or friction, such as long-term operation under difficult conditions, improper use, etc.


Effects of damaged harvester gearbox bearings

If the damaged bearings are not replaced in time, the harvester can still run, but the following problems may occur:

1. Increased noise: The harvester will emit abnormal noise during operation, causing discomfort to the operator.

2. Decreased energy efficiency: Once the bearing is damaged, a large amount of friction heat will be generated, thus consuming power. If this loss continues, the energy efficiency of the harvester will be significantly reduced.

3. Spread of damage: Bearing damage may spread to other engine components, causing more serious damage to the harvester.


How to solve the problem of damaged harvester gearbox bearings

In view of the problem of bearing damage, the bearings should be inspected and replaced in time, and the gearbox should be maintained and maintained regularly to reduce friction and loss. When replacing bearings, you should choose bearing products with reliable quality to avoid using low-quality and inferior bearings, which may cause more serious problems. At the same time, timely repair and replacement of bearings can not only extend the service life of the harvester, but also save more maintenance costs and time.


Harvester gearbox bearings are essential components in agricultural harvesting operations. If the bearings are found to be damaged, they must be maintained and replaced in time to ensure that the harvester can operate normally. At the same time, daily maintenance of the harvester is also very important, which can reduce the failure rate of the machine and improve the working efficiency of the machine.
