As competition increases in your industry, it is essential that all equipment perform optimally and operate at its full potential to stay ahead of the curve. For many, downtime is a constant headache: lost production, additional labor and maintenance costs can significantly increase the overall cost of operation. Obviously, you fall behind the competition.
We understand your pain.
Fortunately, there is a proven answer to reducing production losses and overall machinery costs. This is the use of split roller bearings.
It's time to raise the bar with new split roller bearings
Split roller bearings are a powerhouse that not only incorporates all the advantages of a standard split roller bearing ; such as increased durability, superior sealing, cost savings, energy savings and ease of assembly, but it is also more compact, allowing your machines to have a smaller footprint. Another distinguishing feature is that it runs at a faster speed than any other split bearing.
From fans and blowers to material handling systems, it features high speed and solid design; the ideal choice for a wide range of applications where both elements are required.
The need for speed
In general, making machines faster and more compact saves more money. A good example of this are electric cars. Increasing the speed, for example from 1,800 rpm to 3,600 rpm, allows the machine to be smaller for the same power output, resulting in lower material costs, shorter processing times, simpler winding, and so on. Furthermore, the machinery is also lighter to transport and install.
Good things come in small packages
Compactness and smaller, lighter machines go hand in hand, and this is particularly important in some applications. In the case of a screw conveyor (mainly used in mining machines for transporting goods), a bearing is typically placed in a central position, in material handling, where this bearing position creates a barrier to the flow of material. By reducing the overall diameter of the housing, the barrier becomes narrower and allows for greater performance than a similar conveyor design.
The big advantage
In fact, there are many solid bearings on the market that are compact and high speed, but unfortunately do not offer the other benefits of a split roller bearing. Packed with features like no other, that's what sets the new split roller bearings apart from the rest.
