Abstract This paper mainly focuses on the calculation and analysis on the radiation noise of the angular contact ball bearing applied to the ceramic motorized spindle. The dynamic model containing the main working conditions and structural parameters is established based on dynamic theory of rolling bearing. The sub-source decomposition method is introduced in for the calculation of the radiation noise of the bearing, and a comparative experiment is adopted to check the precision of the method. Then the comparison between the contribution of different components is carried out in frequency domain based on the sub-source decomposition method. The spectrum of radiation noise of different components under various rotation speeds are used as the basis of assessing the contribution of different eigenfrequencies on the radiation noise of the components, and the proportion of friction noise and impact noise is evaluated as well. The results of the research provide the theoretical basis for the calculation of bearing noise, and offers reference to the impact of different components on the radiation noise of the bearing under different rotation speed.
