The right product With their forward-looking bearing arrangement solutions for feed
spindles, main spindles, rotary tables and linear guidance units,
for every application INA and FAG have been at the forefront of the world market for
decades. The bearing components alone, however, are often no
= longer the decisive factor for these machine subsystems.
Our customers have of course benefitted directly from significant
Optimum benefit performance improvements and unique selling propositions thanks
to our ready-to-fit products; these compact, ready-to-fit bearings
for you are used in accordance with the simple principle: unpack, screw
mount, use. In order to optimise the entire machine tool system,
however, it is becoming ever more important not simply to support
the subsystems but to integrate important functions such as
measurement, sealing, lubrication, braking etc. in the components
themselves. This intellectual approach is fulfilled comprehensively
by the new concept added competence in the Production Machinery
Sector since it attaches central importance to systems solution
thinking for the bearing, bearing position and entire system.
This means that you can now access a product range that gives
optimum coverage to all your applications in the machine tool.
Since direct drives and mechatronic solutions are used ever more
frequently in machine tools, we have incorporated a further strong
partner in the form of IDAM INA Drives & Mechatronics in our
spectrum of capabilities. In this way, we can now supply you from
a single source with bearing elements and the appropriate drive
system to give complete systems that are precisely matched to each
other. This opens up completely new technical and economic
design possibilities for your requirements as well as significant
advantages in the time and process chain.
In terms of products, we offer you a comprehensive, precisely
balanced range, precision technology and top product quality.
In order to match the pulse of your developments as closely as
possible, furthermore, we have a worldwide network of engineers,
service and sales technicians working for you and ensuring that
we maintain close contact with you in your own location.
In conclusion, we are convinced that we will always have the right
product for your application. Just contact us to see what we can do

Double row axial angular contact

ball bearings for screw drives

Features Bearings of series ZKLN..-DAC are double row, self-retaining axial

angular contact ball bearings. Due to the 60 contact angle, they can
support radial forces clearance-free and high axial forces from both
sides.

Sealing/lubrication Due to the non-contact minimal gap seals integrated in the standard
design envelope and greasing with a lithium soap grease to GA28,
these bearings are maintenance-free and are thus particularly
economical (for information on GA28, see TPI 123). There is
therefore no need for lubricant feeds, separate seal contact rings
or seals. This reduces the number of components, the mounting
requirements, the costs of producing adjacent components,
the design envelope required and the risk of errors in mounting
work, Figure 3, page 7.
The gap seals give low bearing friction and allow high speeds with
little heat generation in the bearing.
Due to the high quality FPM material, the seals are extremely
resistant to aggressive media such as oils and cooling
lubricants and thus increase the long term operational reliability
of the bearing arrangement.

Operating temperature Sealed axial angular contact ball bearings are suitable for operating
temperatures from 30 C to +120 C; this is limited by the grease,
seal material and the plastic cages in the ball and cage assemblies.
Caution! The operating temperature influences the dynamic bearing
characteristics. The values given in the dimension table are based
on a room temperature of +20 C.

Design and safety guidelines

Load carrying capacity Bearings of series ZKLN..-DAC are optimised in relation to axial load
and rating life carrying capacity and life. Since maximum use is made of the design
envelope, high axial load carrying capacity and rigidity is achieved.
Under comparable loads, this gives longer bearing arrangement life
compared to bearings generally available on the market, Figure 1.

Life calculation The formulae for calculating the basic rating life Lh are given in
TPI 123. Calculation of the resultant and equivalent bearing load
required for life calculation is described in the following paragraph
and Figure 2.

Resultant The bearings are axially preloaded to a defined value if the

and equivalent bearing load P recommended precision locknuts are used and the correct nut
tightening torque is applied. The resultant axial bearing load Fa res
is determined from the axial operating load FaB and taking account
of the axial preload according to Figure 2.
Caution! A load in excess of the limit value will lead to the rolling element
row without load lifting off the raceway; for limit values see Figure 2.
As a result, higher wear will occur under rapid acceleration.
For extreme moment loads and statically overdefined systems
(locating/locating bearing arrangements), please contact us.
The calculation program BEARINX can give a precise design in this
case.

Static load safety factor The static load safety factor S0 indicates the security against
permissible permanent deformations in the bearing. Calculation of
the static load safety factor is described in TPI 123.
In machine tools, S0 should be 4.

Speeds The thermal reference speed is the speed at which an equilibrium

temperature of +70 C is calculated to be reached at a room
temperature of +20 C.

Practically relevant limiting speed In machine tools, it is normal practice to aim for a maximum
for applications in machine tools permissible bearing temperature of +50 C. This is necessary
in order to minimise the influence of heat generation on machine
accuracy. The dimension tables therefore indicate practically
relevant limiting speeds for machine tool applications that
are below the achievable bearing speed. These limiting speeds
are based on the following conditions:
bearing preloaded, no external operating load
25% operating duration
max. equilibrium temperature +50 C.
If the speed is to be determined for a different application or
higher speeds are necessary, a thermal balance analysis can be
carried out. Please contact INA/FAG in this case.

Design of Adjacent constructions (the shaft and housing) must be designed in

adjacent construction accordance with the data in the dimension tables.
The abutment diameters for the shaft and housing shoulders da
and Da must be in accordance with the dimension tables.
Caution! Da and da are recommended minimum abutment diameters.
If these values are not used, rib diameters d1, D1 according to
the dimension table must be observed.

Mounting guidelines
Caution! Bearings should only be fitted and dismantled in accordance with
the Fitting and Maintenance Manual TPI 100. This TPI is available
upon request.
During fitting of bearings, mounting forces should be applied only to
the bearing ring to be fitted. Mounting forces must never be directed
through the rolling elements or sealing rings.
The characteristics of the bearings are only valid when used in
combination with INA precision locknuts and the associated
tightening torques given in the dimension table.
Axial angular contact ball bearings are self-retaining and the
individual bearing components are matched to each other.
The inner rings must not be removed from the bearing during fitting
and dismantling. If the inner rings have been separated from the
bearing, please contact INA/FAG. Never use force to fit the bearing
parts. This can lead to plastic deformations in the rolling element
system that may render the bearing unusable.

Location of inner ring When clamping the inner rings using the recommended precision
locknut, the tightening torques given in the dimension tables must
be observed, Figure 3. The tightening torques for the individual
bearing sizes are only valid for the INA precision locknuts listed.
In order to counteract settling, it is recommended that the locknut
should initially be tightened to twice the tightening torque MA
and then relieved of load again. It should only then be tightened
again to the necessary tightening torque MA.
Caution! If other suitable locknuts are used, the manufacturers guidance on
calculation of the necessary tightening torque should be observed.
Only locknuts with a minimum accuracy of the end face to the thread
of 5 m should be used.
