Case study · KIS
Making off-centre loads understandable.
The project
This KIS film places slewing rings in a cement-mixer application. Its accompanying explanation focuses on tilting moments: loads acting away from the bearing’s rotational centre. It connects bearing performance to structural support, alignment and the way force reaches the rolling contacts.
The animation
The cement-mixer application provides context for a slewing-ring explanation. The film introduces the component within the machine, creating a clear starting point for a discussion of rotating support and loading.
