Bearings are those components of machines that are mainly utilized for the reduction of friction between moving parts of a machine. Elements mainly utilized for the purpose of reducing friction between moving parts. Instrumented bearings are fitted with the sensor units for the purpose of measurement of angular position of rotatable ring. This angular position is measured against the fixed ring of the bearing. The information thus gathered through sensors are utilized in many applications such as tire pressure monitoring system, adaptive cruise control, anti lock braking system, and many other industrial sectors. The global instrumented bearing market is forecasted to observe growth in its rising from various industrial sectors.
Bearings assist in hassle-free and efficient loading and carrying of loads. Bearings find use in applications such as
