Stern Tube Bearing Remetalling
Stern tube bearings are usually manufactured by a cast-iron outer liner with an internal layer of white metal or babbit.
Due to improper lubrication or misalignment, stern tubes may often suffer by wear or damages on the white metal lining, which needs to be re-babbited.
Injegov can perform re babbitting of white metal on the stern tube and other bearing types using a specially manufactured centrifugal white metal casting machine. Centrifugal casting is the best method for rebabbitting white metal and is accepted by classification societies.
Our machine is PLC control and can handle bearings with a diameter of up to 1 m and a length of 2 meters.
Centrifugal casting of white metal on bearings include:
- Cleaning of bearing and removal of old white metal
- Surface preparation and thinning
- Centrifugal casting of white metal on plc controlled specialized casting machine
- Machining of internal diameter on the boring machine
- Dye check and Ultrasonic examination of bonding
