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.

Prerequisites:
Lessons are explained in depth to allow students to build their knowledge from the ground up.
An engineering background is beneficial, but not required.
Level: Foundation
Access to the course.
After your purchase is confirmed you receive an account to the EngineeringTrainer online learning portal, where you find the course in your dashboard. After opening the course you will be guided step-by-step through the different modules. You receive 1-year unlimited access to the course. This allows you to perform modules again if this is beneficial for your work projects.
The course is mainly based on video content: video lectures and interactve 3D model video demonstrations. The course is packed with 2D images, 2D animations and 3D animations. Interactive 3D models are used extensively to show you exactly how valves and their components work. English subtitles are available and videos can be viewed as many times as desired. The video lectures help you to grasp the important technical concepts.
This course is self-paced and is not subject to specific dates. The course contains 10 modules with a total of 2 hours of content which can be performed at your own pace. A Personal Certificate will be provided to you if you finish the course within the first month after starting. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.
You receive 1-year unlimited access to all 10 modules. This allows you to perform modules again whenever you want to refresh knowledge for your daily work projects.
A personal digital certificate will be made available to participants based on the following requirement:
