Repair and Rebabbitting of White Metal Bearing

We are the leaders and specialists in the repair and rebabbitting of white metal bearing. We understand the importance of white metal Babbitt bearings as we have been working in the field of repair, maintenance, and operation of high-capacity diesel engines, turbines installed in power plants, and the heavy engineering industry.

Understanding the importance of repair of white metal Babbitt bearings, we have designed a procedure for rebabbitting of old white metal babbitt bearings which not only delivers satisfactory performance but also ensures the long life of bearings after the Rebabbitting process is undertaken by us.

Repair of old white metal bearing

We at RA Power Solutions believe that rebabbitting of old damaged bearings is more complexed than the manufacturing of new white metal bearings . For the repair of Babbitt bearings, various quality control checks are necessary prior to the undertaking of Rebabbitting of white metal. Our experienced technicians follow strictly the procedure laid down in the manual before white metal Rebabbitting and even after the Rebabbitting of bearing and final machining is undertaken.

**White Metal Babbitt Bearing Before Repair**

The correct selection of Babbitt white metal is again of great importance. In most of the cases since the bearings are old, the users are not aware about the grade of white metal which is used at the time of manufacturing of bearing. The old Babbitt metal after removal is subject to metallurgical composition check in order to know the grade and composition of white metal.

Our endeavor is always to use the babbitt white metal of higher grade than the existing one which is really appreciated by our clients as they not only get the satisfactory performance of Babbitt white metal bearings but also long life of the bearings which are rebabbitted by us.

**White Metal Babbitt Bearing Under Inspection**

Advantage of getting rebabbitting and repair of old white metal bearings from RA Power Solutions.

We have observed that in most of the cases end-user replaces the bearings without inspection of bearing sitting area of the shaft. Due to the wear and tear, failure of bearing, bearing line marks, pitting, and various other flaws are observed on the bearing sitting area of the shaft and they need to be removed prior to the assembly of the rebabbitt bearing.

RA Power Solutions have onsite crankshaft grinding and polishing equipments upto 700 mm diameter. These equipments can be send to any site all over the world to undertake polishing of the bearing sitting area of the shaft. Our portable, lightweight onsite shaft polishing machines can undertake the polishing and improve the surface finish without removal of the shaft from the main equipment. The polishing of shaft and enhancement of surface finish results to the long life of not only the repaired white metal Babbitt bearing but also of the shaft.

The types of bearing we manufacture and undertake rebabbitting are not limited to the following categories:

Diesel engines
Pumps
Generators
Compressors
Gear boxes
Propeller shaft bearings
Turbines, alternator, and for all applications

Leading Manufacturer of White Metal Babbitt Bearing | Engine bearing

RA Power Solutions have been working on high-capacity engines installed in power plants, heavy industry, and vessels. The company is having experience four decades of in executing repairs of damaged engines, and rotary equipment. The necessity of the development and manufacturing of white metal bearings was felt and the manufacturing of Babbitt white metal bearings was started about two decades back.

Manufacturing of Babbitt White Metal Bearing

The manufacturing of white metal bearing is undertaken up to the outer diameter of 1500 mm. The bearings manufactured are centrifugally cast in order to ensure that Babbitt white metal is bonded strongly with the steel casing of the bearing. This process of Rebabbitting of white metal also ensures dense formation of babbitt white metal which is free of blow holes, pinholes, and uniform structure. The machining after Rebabbitting procedure is undertaken, maintaining the closed tolerance.

The white metal Babbitt bearings are manufactured either as per the drawings provided by the client or as per the sample of Babbitt bearings.

Rebabbitting of old bearing

We pay lot of attention at the time of Rebabbitting of white metal bearings due to accident or normal wear and tear.

The following checks are done at the time of Rebabbitting of white metal bearings.

Removal of old Babbitt white metal at controlled temperature is of great importance. This is strictly followed by using various sophisticated temperature sensors.
In case the grade of Babbitt white metal is not known, the metallurgical analysis for the composition of Babbitt white metal is done. Normally, we use the same grade of Babbitt material or the higher grade of Babbitt white metal in order to ensure high-quality white metal bearing, which is important for the continuous and satisfactory performance of the equipments.
Steel casing of the old white metal bearings is short blasted and is subject to hardness and ultrasound test for crack. We have experienced that due to excessive load or accident white metal bearing casing develops crack, and it is a disaster in case the bearing with cracked steel lining is rebabbitted. The crack detection test on bearings steel lining is undertaken by our experienced technicians. Again, the higher hardness on the steel lining of white metal Babbitt bearing is not desirable. The hard spots are removed in order to ensure strong bonding between the Babbitt white metal and the steel lining.
As mentioned above, the babbitting of white metal is done by centrifugal process.
Machining of bearings is done on latest CNC equipments in order to ensure maintenance of all critical parameters and tolerances of white metal bearings.

White metal bearings manufactured by us are exported all over the world for different applications including diesel engines, alternator, turbines, gearboxes, etc.
