Types of slewing bearings

Liebherr is one of the world's leading producers of slewing bearings. Our portfolio comprises many different types, manufactured in a wide range of dimensions and designs.

All of our slewing bearings can be manufactured with internal gears, external gears or without gearing. Special gearing, such as helical and worm gears, are also available upon request. The seal concept is also configured for each individual case of use, and takes account of particular environmental conditions, such as particularly saline or dusty air. The bearings can also be coated for extra corrosion protection.

Tapered roller bearings

Tapered roller bearings can be subjected to radial and axial loads. They are suited to high load conditions. The tapered form of the rolling elements ensures optimum rolling characteristics. The play-free bearing mounting makes the tapered roller bearing particularly suitable for the highest precision and accuracy requirements

Tapered roller bearings with no gearing

Optimum rolling characteristics and ideal power distribution are guaranteed by the layout and design of the tapered rollers. This design is used, for example, as the main bearing in wind turbines or in tunnel boring machines.
