The main purpose of the research was to determine the possibilities and experimentally verify the benefits of using thermoplastic materials in a cutless plain bearing. The tested bearings were subjected to equal loads and rotational speeds, using water as the lu****bricant. Analysis showed that they achieved the best vibration damping at lower speeds, between 600 and 1100 RPM. Comparative studies of bearings made of different materials, such as available on the market bearings made of rubber, bearings printed with a 3D printer from PETG, PLA, ABS or Tribo filament materials, revealed differences in their vibration damping ability and operational stability. Conclusions from the study suggest that higher vibration acceleration may increase the radius of the trajectory, which may affect the function and performance of the bearings. The importance of the operational stability of water-lubricated plain bearings cannot be assessed solely on the basis of the RMS of vibration acceleration or trajectory radius. Both of these parameters are crucial from the user's point of view, especially in the context of various applications such as electric boats.(original abstract)
