There are several steps in the manufacturing process:
- Metal balls start as a wire or bar stock. It is cut to give a pellet with a length approximately the size of the desired ball outer diameter.
- The metal pellet is headed so that it collapses a rough spherical shape.
- The rough balls are fed into a machine that passes then between two heavy cast iron or hardened steel plates. THese crush the balls into the correct diameter and makes them into spheres. As a finishing step the balls are then run through a grinding process to improve precision.
- The finished balls are then heat treated and cleaned.
- A final polishing machine aps the balls to exact tolerances.

No. Baoding balls are totaly differant.
What are wheel bearings and what do they do?
Wheel bearings are small metal rods or balls that are placed between the inside of a wheel and it's axle, in order to reduce friction.
What are the Small balls that help cut down on friction inside machines?
Ball bearings
What do you do if the balls fall out of your skateboard bearing?
I'd buy new bearings but that's just me
What are real world objects that have the shape of a sphere?
Balls. Basketballs, baseballs, softballs, ping pong balls, pall bearings, marbles...
What is the material used in ball bearings?
i think its either iron or steal
How do ball bearings work?
Ball bearings use tiny balls to maintain separation between moving parts of a load bearer. They are effective because they are very cheap to make, and the rolling balls reduce friction between the moving parts of the bearing.
