Axial cylindrical roller bearings have a contact angle of 90°. They only allow axial forces and bending moments. No radial forces can be used. Therefore, uy, uz have to be entered instead of Fy, Fz.
The options dialog (
-button behind bearing type) allows to specify if the left or the right ring shall be considered the “inner ring” on which loading applies. The default setting “Left ring is considered as inner ring” results in a positive axial load to be entered.
An axial clearance can be entered; its only influence is an offset to the axial displacement.
No tolerances are considered for axial cylindrical roller bearings.
