Technology and key benefits Active magnetic bearings operate with no surface contact eliminating bearing friction and wear. Electromagnets generate forces in radial and axial directions to levitate the shaft, allowing it to rotate contact-free. A control system actively monitors and continuously adjusts the current in the electromagnets to maintain shaft position. Their extreme precision and

Oil storage station Modernise your oil storage and handling practices It is well known that approximately 50% of all premature bearing failures come from poor lubrication and contamination. During storage, maintenance and transfer, lubricant can easily get contaminated due to lack of lubrication knowledge or simply lack of attention. It is very common for different
SKF DialSet Quick tool for relubrication calculation DialSet app for smartphones DialSet stand-alone version DialSet online version SKF Re-lubrication Calculation Program DialSet has been designed to help you to set up your SKF automatic lubricators. After selecting the criteria and grease appropriate for your application, the program provides you with the correct settings for your
Grease test kit Portable grease analysis kit for field use Lubricant analysis is a vital part of a predictive maintenance strategy. Until recently, however, oils were almost always analysed despite the fact that around 80% of bearings are lubricated with grease. Tribology expertise and years of research have allowed SKF to develop a complete methodology
