The Timken Company is adding 250 part numbers to its portfolio of single and double row angular contact ball bearings in time for the Hanover Fair 2019 (Hannover Messe) in Germany.

For designers who have had to compromise by using larger couplings than otherwise necessary, or coupling styles that are less desirable, the new elastic metal insert couplings could be just the solution.

Rolling bearings of different designs but with adjusted, identical outside dimensions reduce the number of different parts contained in modular systems. Economies of scale significantly reduce the manufacturing costs.

Safe and accurate transmission of torques is essential for precision drives of cross cutters. This is ensured by the use of steel bellows couplings with force-fitted shaft-hub connection.

By changing to NSK Molded-Oil mounted-unit inserts, an international drinks producer has overcome repeated problems of premature insert failures on the drive system of four vital sorting conveyors. The move has improved service life notably, leading to an annual saving of more than € 5000.
