High Precision And Mini-size Ceramic Bearings
With widely using of the ceramic bearings in all kinds of industries, they have the different requirements of frame, category, material, and precision of the ceramic bearings. During the production, the requirements need to be improved by a long experiment, but on the small type (inner diameter less than 10mm), the precision of product is hard to meet the requirement of customers by the routine processing craft.
According to above problem, we have an adjustment of the manufacturing machine and processing craft. We use a new processing craft aiming at the ceramic bearing whose inner diameter less than 10mm, and purchase the new processing machine, which insure the production of the high precision and mini-size ceramic bearing from the hardware.
