When machinery operates under extreme conditions, it often encounters severe loads that can significantly affect the service life of bearings and the uptime of industrial applications.
Maintaining machinery effectively is crucial for maximising efficiency, minimising downtime, and controlling costs.
Maintaining efficiency and reliability is essential in many industries. This means bearings face many challenges, the most significant being misalignment issues, which can increase wear, reduce efficiency, and lead to costly downtime.
Keeping on top of maintenance schedules can be time consuming and costly, particularly if you are facing frequent breakdowns and excessive downtime.
Proper maintenance is key to maximising bearing life and equipment uptime. A bearing’s expected lifespan depends not only on its quality but also on the care taken during installation, maintenance, and dismounting
When a food manufacturing site in Kirkcaldy, which holds an impressive BRC AA+ rating, faced a crucial challenge: ensuring that its lubricant usage aligned fully with the BRC Global Standard for Food Safety (Issue 9), they weren’t sure where to turn
Bearings are the unsung heroes in most machinery. They allow for smooth rotation or linear movement, letting equipment run with minimal friction.
When a prominent recycling company that processes medical waste, approached ACORN due to persistent issues with bearing failure, they were determined to prevent persistent unplanned downtime.
A UK-based leader in waste management, who were operating in the energy and manufacturing sector, was managing several single-point lubrication units on their equipment.
When it comes to the performance and longevity of industrial machinery, few components are as critical as bearings.
