Why take this course?
This anti-friction bearing course explains bearing functions, loads, friction, lubrication, components and terminology. It compares ball, cylindrical, tapered, spherical and needle-roller bearings so engineers can relate bearing design to an application. This self-paced online course includes video lectures and a completion certificate with PDH credits.
What you'll learn
After completing this course, you...
• Understand bearing theory (friction, loads etc.) and terminology.
• Know the different bearing types (thrust, angular, self-aligning etc.).
• Know their components,
• Know the basics of lubrication,
• Understand which bearing is suitable for which application and why.

About the course
Learn about anti-friction bearing components, designs, and applications. Ideal for all engineering industries.
Humans have been using anti-friction bearings (rolling contact bearings) for thousands of years. But what are anti-friction bearings? Why are there so many different types? And why does every engineer need to know a little bit about them?
In this course, you will learn:
History of anti-friction bearings.
Bearing theory (friction, loads etc.).
Bearing functions.
Bearing lubrication.
Bearing components.
Bearing terminology.
Ball and roller bearings.
Bearing types (thrust, angular, self-aligning etc.).
Which bearing is suitable for which application.
And a lot more!
This course gives you all the fundamental understanding you need about the bearings and can also be used later as a refresher course. Whatever your level of understanding, or engineering background (mechanical engineering, HVAC, chemical engineering, oil & gas industry, power engineering, etc.), this course will provide you with a strong understanding of bearings and their details.
