Abstract
To investigate transferring mechanism of form error of bearing elements and rotational accuracy in cylindrical roller bearings, according to the
bearing components motion and geometric relationships, a prediction model for rotational accuracy of cylindrical roller bearings based on
roundness error of the inner raceway is presented. The effects of roundness error (i.e., amplitude, order) in the inner raceway, the number of
rollers and radial clearance on the radial runout of inner ring are analyzed. Analytic solutions of the radial runout of inner ring are deduced
when shapes of bearing elements are an ideal circle, which verifies the correctness of the presented model. The results show that the proposed
model has better precision accuracy.

cylindrical roller bearings, considering roundness error in the

inner ring is presented. The influences of the amplitude and
