General requirements for household appliances
Reduce noise & vibration
Household appliances are usually working in indoor places. Excessive vibration and noise levels associated with household appliances are strongly required to be eliminated. Excessive vibration can cause premature equipment failure. High vibration levels also increase energy consumption. High noise levels, in turn, result in a poorer life environment for personnel and family. ZGB offers a range of solutions for exceptionally smooth and quiet bearing operation.
Energy saving
The cost for energy rises day by day. Reduced energy consumption is of ever increasing importance. Energy consumption can be reduced in several ways. However, the most important for bearings is to reduce the friction inside, by choosing low-friction grease, optimized seals and shields design.
Environment concerning
When environmental legislation becomes more stringent, environment protection also comes important of ever, especially in household appliance, which is the closest part to personnel. Even the bearing is an inner part of a household appliance, ZGB bearings all pass RoHS to make sure that no single piece is with harm.
Less weight
In many applications of household appliances, especially when we talk about a portable tool, the reduction of weight is extremely important. As a result of the engineering knowledge application on new materials, advanced calculation tools and integrated solutions, it is now possible to increase the power density. This improvement has a strong impact on weight and size reduction with the highest level of reliability.
