Grease test rigs
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. Learn […]
Noise and vibration testers
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. All […]
Waviness and roundness analyzers
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 […]
Couplings
Power transmission couplings that meet your specific requirements Machine designers are under pressure to raise the performance of power transmission systems, in the face of diminishing time and resources. A diversity of coupling systems, including customised products, helps these systems work effectively and efficiently. Factors such as size and torque requirements determine the most appropriate […]
Bushings and Hubs
Simplify installations with easy-to-fit, high-quality bushings and hubs Bushings and hubs are available in many variants, offering specific benefits in power transmission applications ranging from automotive to paper making. Our products are made of high-quality steel. Most are phosphate-coated or blackened to improve corrosion resistance. We offer taper, QD and keyless bushings, as well as […]
Sprockets
Find the perfect sprocket for your application Selecting a power transmission component can be challenging, especially when it is a fundamental part like a sprocket. Products must be available in many sizes, to fit a variety of design envelopes – and avoid the need for customised parts. With our comprehensive range, you will easily find […]
Chains
Reduce maintenance costs with robust quality chain Mean-time-between-failures (MTBF) is an important measure of reliability, and is critical in power transmission systems. Robust chain drives extend mean-time-between-failures, which reduces maintenance costs. Some chain systems are of inferior quality, having low wear resistance and little ability to withstand harsh conditions such as temperature variation and shock […]
Pulleys
Match your pulleys to your belts for extended service life Cost efficiency is critical in engineering, including power transmission projects. Designers need high quality components in order to maintain performance and contain operating costs. The superior quality of our pulleys can significantly extend belt life, which helps to reduce the total cost of ownership of […]
Belts
Improve plant efficiency with accurate belt selection Plant efficiency is a key performance indicator, and one that most manufacturers want to improve. In power transmission, our Plant Belt Drive Mapping service has helped many customers to achieve this. After assessing all belt drives within a facility, our technical experts recommend how best to raise efficiency […]
Machine protection systems
With more than 35 years experience in production and service of instruments for monitoring, analysis and diagnosis of mechanical behaviour of critical machinery, SKF offers total system integration by bringing advanced condition monitoring and protection systems into a plant-wide control platform. This integration leads to the avoidance of costly unexpected down-time and reduced operating and […]
