DAC Worldwide’s Journal and Fluid-Film Bearing Trainer (204J-000) is a realistic, heavy-duty learning aide that allows for convenient and consistent training in the identification, installation, removal, and maintenance of a variety of babbet-type journal bearings found on high horsepower, high-speed rotating machines that have high loads.

The trainer contains two student workstations, as a split journal bearing is provided on each end of the device. The bearing allows for common maintenance practices, such as bluing checks, dent repair, and hand scraping. Learners will use these industrial-grade components to study topics such as types of fluid film bearings, manufacturing and inspection techniques, lubrication, and more. Not only do the components provide durability to stand up to frequent use, but they also aid learners in becoming better prepared for the tasks they will encounter on the job.

Practice Hands-On Mechanical Skills for Various Applications

The Journal and Fluid-Film Bearing Trainer features a 36" long formed-steel baseplate with provision for tabletop mounting. It includes two (2) three-inch diameter babbet-lined, split pillow blocks of 2-bolt and 4-bolt varieties, one (1) three-inch diameter machined shaft, combination wrenches, bearing shims, and more. The trainer requires the #204-J01 Tool Kit, Journal Bearing. Optional accessories expand training to include fluid film thrust bearings, radial fluid film bearings, as well as the setting of clearances in multistage pumps.

Expand Training with Additional Mechanical Options

The Journal and Fluid-Film Bearing Trainer is only one of DAC Worldwide’s expansive mechanical training products. Other related equipment includes a Spherical Roller Bearing Pillow Block Assembly Cutaway (200-2045), a Bearing Maintenance Training System (204-000), a Bearing Sample Board (835), and many more!

Advanced Manufacturing Skills TrainersOur learning programs develop job-ready skills that have been proven time and again. Take a look at how we can help you be successful!

Colleges are challenged to offer courses whenever students are available – and frequently, wherever they are available. Students want courses that are available on campus as well as from home while also providing strong hands-on skills for the technology demands facing them. Meeting these demands is no small task.

Amatrol has learning programs that allow colleges to excel in this demanding environment. We offer a full range of learning systems, both in a traditional equipment lab setting as well as in a virtual lab, that meet and exceed students' expectations.
