Austrian NKE Rolling Bearings for Industrial Gearboxes are widely used in various industries

Figure 1: NKE produces rolling bearings for industrial gearboxes

NKE, the manufacturer of the bearing industry, will exhibit various bearing solutions for industrial gearboxes at the Hannover Messe with the theme of "Power Transmission and Control Technology" this year. Apart from cylindrical roller bearings, it also includes Typical gearbox bearing products include spherical roller bearings, tapered roller bearings, angular contact ball bearings and deep groove ball bearings.

Rolling bearings for industrial gearboxes must withstand severe and difficult operating environments.

NKE's various types of bearing solutions are now available to meet the diverse needs of a wide range of operating conditions in industrial applications. Bearing manufacturers in Austria, a major feature is the special production of single row cylindrical roller bearings, the application of this type of bearing is relatively extensive.

In addition to cylindrical roller bearings, NKE's standardized industrial gearbox bearing portfolio also includes spherical roller bearings, tapered roller bearings, angular contact ball bearings and deep groove ball bearings, etc. The company also cooperates with its customers in research and development. Special bearing products for gearboxes.

In addition, NKE also provides gearbox manufacturers with comprehensive technical services including engineering consulting, design support, analysis, and training. All bearing products manufactured by NKE have undergone rigorous quality inspection procedures and have been developed using the most advanced equipment and manufacturing processes.

These special types of bearings are designed and manufactured according to the customer's specific requirements and are now available to customers. NKE gearbox bearings are widely used in various industries, such as the general mechanical engineering industry, mining and transportation systems, heavy machinery, steel industry, wind turbines and so on.

To date, NKE has produced about 3,000 cylindrical roller bearings of various designs and sizes suitable for high radial loads and medium to high speed operation. At the same time, these products are made of the cleanest rolling bearing steel, and the service life is relatively long. The high quality raceway surface can reduce wear while continuously reducing the operating temperature.

In addition, the inner and outer rings of these cylindrical roller bearings are independently installed, which makes installation easier. The NKE plant in Steyr has a short lead-time for bearings, and it also enables efficient and reliable operation.
