Five Minute Facts
What Are Rolling Element Bearing Defects And What Causes Them?
Rolling element bearing defects are typically artifacts of mechanically induced stresses or lubrication issues that create small cracks or defects within the mechanical components of the bearing, leading to increased vibration.

Five Minute Facts
Gear Defects and Faults
Gear faults typically occur in the teeth of a gear mechanism due to fatigue, spalling, or pitting. These can be manifested as cracks in the gear root or removal of metal from the tooth surface. Gears are the main elements of power transmission in many industrial applications and are subjected to significant stresses and loading.
