Fig. 1 above shows catostrophic failure of a bearing. fig. 2 shows the bearing after being repaired.
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.
