Waviness on the bearing components can cause high vibration levels in most applications. As the amplitude of these waves is as small as some nanometers, you can understand the importance of measuring accuracy and resolution. Waviness testers from SKF allow analysis of the waviness on the components and thus give the production engineer a powerful tool to improve the production process. Because low noise and vibration of bearings is becoming more important, there is a high demand on the measuring accuracy and resolution.

Track rollers are designed to run on all types of tracks and to be used in cam drives, conveyor systems, etc. The outer ring running surface is crowned as standard. With the exception of single row cam rollers, track rollers are also available with a cylindrical (flat) outer ring running surface.

Feature : Accommodate high radial loads The thick-walled outer ring enables high radial loads, while reducing distortion and bending stresses.

As a major engineering company, SKF needs to make sure that it provides products and services that meet its own high standards. Measurement and quality-assurance systems, based at our own Quality Technology for test and measuring equipment (QT), have provided the means to do that for the last 30 years.

To ensure the optimum reliability of your bolted assemblies, it is essential to obtain the right level of tightening preload as well as the precise mean to achieve it. The right solution is to perform the bolt tightening with a hydraulic bolt tensioner On the strength of its experience in the area of hydraulic tightening, SKF has developed a broad range of hydraulic bolt tensioners, both standard and customized :

The inner and outer components of the SH bushing are threaded to correspond to a divided taper angle. A nut with screws is fitted to the inner component. When the screws are tightened, the outer component is subject to axial pressure and "climbs" up the thread on the inner component. The slotted inner component will be pressed against the shaft and the outer component, if slotted, will be pressed against the hub (fig 1).

SKF Power Transmission is a product line that provides a complete range of components including high quality belts, chains, couplings, pulleys, sprockets, bushings and hubs. Required in virtually every industry, our power transmission solutions enable processes to run by connecting moving parts in machinery. Regardless of whether the challenge lies in designing equipment that increases plant efficiency or to improve overall profitability, SKF's experience and expertise can help you meet your goals.

Many applications require spherical bearings that are suitable for oscillating movements and that can accommodate misalignment. Rolling bearings only partly fulfil these requirements as they are generally designed for continuous rotation and can only accommodate limited misalignment. Therefore, SKF manufactures spherical plain bearings, rod ends and bushings to provide an economical solution to these challenges.

SKF designs, develops and manufactures a wide range of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) and generators for a wide range of applications and industries. These motors are ranging in power from tens of kilowatts to 1 MW and in rotation speeds - up to 100,000 rpm.

SKF Coupling Systems develops, produces and sells products and solutions based on the oil injection method. These products reduce downtime and make maintenance cheaper in the capital intense equipment where they are used.

A noisy application might be caused by wavy bearing components, local defects in the rings and balls or by dirt particles in the bearing. While basic requirements on a bearing like stiffness, load capacity, speed limit and service life play a critical role in applications, low noise and vibration are becoming even more important.

But with the right lubrication solution you can create new opportunities to increase uptime and productivity. Along with helping to reduce premature bearing failures and machine downtime, proper lubrication can increase energy efficiency. At SKF, we can help you realize the true potential of lubrication. SKF lubrication solutions range from specialized lubricants to state-of-the-art lubrication systems. Integrated SKF lubrication solutions combine our expertise in bearings, seals and condition monitoring with our tribology knowledge – the study of friction, wear and lubrication.

Linear drive systems typically use screws to transfer rotary into linear movements. This requirement is well achieved by our high efficiency driving products: miniature and large rolled ball screws, ground ball screws as well as different variations of roller screws. The second part of Linear Motion are linear guides and tables. The key know-how here is to find the most suitable guiding solution providing the needed accuracy, stiffness and positioning at the appropriate cost. To provide the best fit for your guiding needs, our comprehensive range includes linear ball bearings, profile rail guides, precision rail guides and linear tables and slides.

While SKF has a rich history in the research and development of bearing technology, it also has deep roots in the field of lubrication technology. Through the development of a number of grease test rigs, we continue to deepen our understanding of lubrication theory and pass that knowledge on to our customers.

When checking features such as tapered seatings, roller set bores or outside diameters of cylindrical roller bearings, conventional measuring methods and instruments are not always suitable. SKF has a solution.

The powerful SKF oil injection method is applied to SKF various types of rigid OK couplings, Supergrip bolts, hydraulic rings and nuts, as well as Flexible couplings offering our customers substantial savings in downtime for all industries and applications where they are used.
