Copper bearings play a crucial role in mechanical equipment and must be properly handled in case of severe wear and failure.

Firstly, it is necessary to conduct a detailed inspection and analysis of the worn and failed copper bearing shells. Check the specific location, degree, and surface condition of wear to determine whether it is caused by poor lubrication, excessive load, or improper assembly. This is an important basis for subsequent processing. If the wear is not too severe, you can try repairing it. For example, by using scraping and grinding methods, the uneven surface after wear can be corrected to achieve the appropriate fitting accuracy again. At the same time, it is necessary to inspect and polish the shaft neck and other components that match it to ensure a good overall fit. When the wear is extremely severe and its performance cannot be restored through repair, it is necessary to replace the copper bearing shell with a new one in a timely manner. When replacing, it is necessary to strictly follow the assembly requirements to ensure accurate installation position, and select appropriate lubricating grease to ensure good lubrication conditions and avoid similar wear and failure of the newly replaced bearing shell.

In short, in the face of severe wear and failure of copper bearing shells, identifying the cause, repairing or replacing it reasonably is necessary to restore normal operation of the equipment as soon as possible.
