...Fanming Meng; Yuanpei Chen; Yang Yang; Zhiwei Chen Purpose – The severe friction and wear of the spindle in a cotton picker often occur in a picking cotton, which affects the spindle lifetime and its efficiency of picking cottons. This paper aims to investigate the effect of an electroless nick...

...Abdérafi Charki; David Bigaud; Fabrice Guérin Purpose The spindle behavior of machines and systems depends largely on the choice and design quality of the mechanical components used for the displacement between different parts. As far as very high technology is concerned, air bearings are suitable...
