Glossary of Key Paramaters

Tilting Moment Torque: This torque is the gravity load multiplied by distance between the position of load and the center of slewing bearing. If the actual torque is greater than the rated tilting moment torque, slewing drive will be overturned.

Radial load: The load vertical to the axis of slewing bearing

Axial load: The load parallel to the axis of slewing bearing

Holding torque: It is the reverse torque.When the drive is rotating reversely, and parts are not damaged,The maximum torque achieved is called holding torque, it is also seen as broken torque.

Self-locking: Only when there is load, the slewing drive is not able to reverse rotate and thus called self-locking.
