Turbine Bearing

After readings were taken from damaged areas on a 52 inch babbitted ball mill bearing,  we hand scrapped specific areas for many hours to achieve a complete bearing surface contact.  Developing  the skills of  scrapping a  babbitt  surface is to know  where  and how much to scrape,  making it an art as much as a craft.
