Babbitt bearings are found in many industrial applications, such as: Electric motors Gearboxes Line shafts Mixers Turbines Large air moving equipment Babbitt bearings are found in power plants, mills, in the military, municipal buildings, the rubber industry and in the pulp and paper industry. CMT manufactures and repairs Babbitt bearings using the spin cast methodology […]
DC runout table motors suffer wear and tear, can be repaired
DC runout table motors are found in the steel processing industry. Runout table motors live in harsh, wet, high vibration environments and experience many electrical and mechanical failures. CMT can repair any runout table motors. CMT can install new feet, seals and bearings on the motors. CMT can do complete mechanical repairs and electrical winding, […]
Turn to CMT for all Babbitt bearings needs
Babbitt bearings rely on oil-fed lubrication to work and can be in service for decades in turbines, large motors, fans and blowers used in power plants, military ships and in industrial manufacturing facilities. When Babbitt bearings come out of tolerance or fail, turn to CMT. CMT uses the spin cast method to ensure the highest […]

CMT can fix motors and gearboxes
A disassembly evaluation at CMT indicated the rolling element bearing failed because of service conditions. The DC roll motor and gearbox needed new shafts, bearings and gears because of improper alignment. Alignment is important in double shaft extensions. If one or both sides aren’t aligned, bearings are destroyed and shafts can twist. In addition to […]
Potato. Potatoe. Centrifugal castings. Babbitt Bearings.
Babbitt bearings are integral to all heavy industrial machinery. Babbitt bearings are sleeve bearings made of certain types of alloys, which are melted down and cast to produce the bearing surface. Babbitt bearings are used for high speed, rotating equipment, such as compressors, turbines, electric motors and large power generators (like those in power plants). The […]
