The RotaLube® Inaccessible Chain Lubrication Kit enables engineers to lubricate chain safely & effectively whilst machinery is in operation, without the need to remove guards.
36% of bearing failures are due to poor lubrication practices, something that can be difficult to to maintain in the harsh environment of the food & beverage industry.
The choice of coupling to connects an electric motor with a mixer's paddle or impellor is critical to the successful operation of the machinery.
Improving the efficiency of your electric motor can reduce the likelihood of machine failure, extend component lifespan and help to reduce energy consumption.
Poor bearing fitting practices are responsible for around 16% of premature bearing failures, so it’s easy to see why the choice of method for bearing mounting is so important.
There are many possible reasons why your bearing has failed, but the only true way of finding out the cause is by performing root cause analysis.
Condition monitoring is often talked about when looking at how to extend the life of machinery, but how does it work? And how effective can it really be?
When it comes to downtime in fans, there is no tolerance. A breakdown could cause anything from unpleasant working conditions to a complete halt in production. But what is the solution?
From costly downtime to catastrophic machine failure: everyone knows the potential consequences of premature bearing failure. At ACORN, we want to help you avoid this.
Bearing seals are perhaps one of the most underrated components on any machine. They perform the essential role of guarding against contamination whilst keeping hold of the lubricant. When a seal fails, it is often quickly followed by bearing failure: a costly consequence.
In this article, we look at the sustainability challenges that you face when selecting replacement machine components, and simple solutions that could boost the sustainability of your business.
We’ve put together our top tips to help you to succeed in prioritising food safety on your production line, without compromising on what is important to your business.
Premature bearing failure, which is when a bearing fails before reaching its expected service life, is a common occurrence. But that doesn’t mean you have to accept it.
Find out how component selection can reduce the risk of worker injury in mines and quarries.
The recycling industry is a particular challenge when it comes to component selection. Split bearings are a revolutionary product for this industry. Read more to find out why.
There is no denying that bearings are under a lot of stress. This stress causes wear, eventually leading to bearing failure. But is this inevitable? Or is there a way to make bearings last longer?
In the Food & Beverage industry, ensuring products are safe and free from contaminants is paramount. However, when it comes to lubrication contact can be unavoidable, so find a lubricant that keeps your products safe and your plant complying with food safety standards.
