4.1 Dry bearing
The functional criteria for a radial bearing used in fine mechanics ( 9 ) are, for example:
maintenance-free and preferably dry-running;
tolerance of high relative humidity ;
minimum friction losses.
The key operating parameters are as follows:
continuous slip ;
normal load: F N = 5 N, i.e. p 0 " 0.15 MPa ;
rotation speed: n = 10 tr·min –1...
