Bearing block and production system having such bearing block

The invention relates to a bearing block (135) and to a production plant (10) having such a bearing block (135), to a bearing block (125) for supporting a slowly running body in a production plant (10) for producing hot mass (15), in particular a continuous casting plant, wherein the bearing block (135) has a bearing block housing (145) having a bearing receptacle (175), a cooling channel system (261) having at least one cooling channel (325), and a rolling bearing (230) arranged in the bearing receptacle (175) having a rolling bearing outer ring (280), the bearing receptacle (175) having a first inner circumferential side (170) surrounding a rotational axis (130), wherein the bearing housing (145) has a first contact surface (146), and wherein the bearing housing (145) is designed to transmit a bearing force (F) from the rolling bearing outer ring (280) to the first contact surface (146), wherein the cooling channel (325) extends in a circumferential direction about the rotational axis (130) and is designed
