An article deals with a concept of increasing efficiency of a current production process of bearing ring machining. A goal is to substitute a generally expensive technology of cutting when at least the same integrity of a surface is kept. A theoretical part is focused on a characteristic and analysis of a given component including an applied material 100Cr6 from which bearing rings are made. A practical part analyses and suggests an innovation of increasing efficiency of the machining process. Series of samples would be tested experimentally at university conditions (Workroom C2 of Dept. of Machining Technology, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Brno University of Technology) using CNC Lathe Machine SP 280 SY.
The article describes individual production workplaces along with used tool equipment that includes for the process of increasing efficiency the innovation in the form of the change of the production process, changes of most cutting tools and cutting conditions needed for the turning of heat-treated bearing rings. The article also deals with a surface integrity after turning of bearing rings. The integrity is analysed using a touch measuring tools (a manual roughness tester TS100, a tool with an inductive sensor Form Talysurf Intra) and using a touchless measuring tool Alicona Infinite Forces G4, including the measurement of a residual tension in a surface layer (Barkhausen noise) by the tool Rollscan 300.
The article finishes with a wear test of replaceable cutting blades at applied cutting conditions with a follow-up discussion, which describes problematic steps that were done in particular phases of experimental testing, and with necessary concept of further testing of bearing rings.
