Thrust Bearing
Advantages and Disadvantages
• Advantages
Plain bearing are cheap to produce and have noiseless
operation. They can be easily machined, occupy small radial
space and have vibration damping properties.
Disadvantages
They require large supply of lubricating oil, they are suitable
only for relative low temperature and speed; and starting
resistance is much greater than running resistance due to
slow build up of lubricant film around the bearing surface.

Bearings
Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages
Rolling bearings can be easily applied on the axis from any
direction in space
The high rotation efficiency and little heat productivity
Disadvantages
They are high cost, they cannot be used in half, and greater noise.
The load capacity of rolling bearings is much smaller than that of
sliding bearings with the same volume
