More bearing arrangement you engage with , you know their bearing types, tolerances selected, speed, lubrication, failures modes, More experienced bearing application engineer you would be...

Looing at the preface always helps to spend time and read and re read the book or not ;-)

Preface

This is the third edition of Ball and Roller Bearings. In more than 40 years following the publication of the first edition and 14 years after the second edition, it has become a standard work worldwide in the field of rolling bearing engineering for designers and operators, scientists, lecturers and students. In addition to the original German edition, it is also available in English, Italian, Chinese and Japanese. It follows the same structure as the second edition, which has been out of print for quite some time. The findings and developments of recent years have called for updating throughout, and in some parts a considerable extension of the contents. But towering above is the finding that endurance strength is also possible with rolling bearings, an idea first announced by FAG at the beginning of the 1980s. It is reflected in the 'adjusted rating life calculation' and its application in the field, detailed in all the examples of Chapter 8.Furthermore, significant topics such as materials, lubrication, housing design, rolling bearing damage and rolling bearing monitoring have been substantially extended along with some smaller sections, so the third edition again provides its readers with a state-of-the-art manual and reference book required for successful application. Although it was possible to omit all the tables contained in today's bearing catalogues, the manual is now 150 pages longer due to the large amount of new material. The authors of the first edition, Dr Paul Eschmann and Karl Weigand, both retired now for several years, have proudly followed the creation of the new edition; sadly, this opportunity was not granted to Ludwig Hasbargen, who died comparatively young in 1975.The editors would like to thank the engineering staff at FAG Kugelfischer Georg Sch?fer AG for providing their experience during the revision of this edition and for the support obtained in each of the diverse sections, the editorial coordination which was run by Günther Heurich. The revision was once again under the reliable leadership of Prof. Dr Johannes Br?ndlein, who is also thanked for his willingness to undertake the final updating.
