Increased availability: High performance corrosion resistant steel coatings for rolling bearings hold the key to boosting machine availability

摘要

The demand for rolling bearings that are able to withstand extreme operating conditions is on the increase, including dry-running and media-lubricated bearings. This demand is being fuelled by tighter legal requirements in many industries, an increased awareness of scarce resources and the need for companies to become more energy-efficient. Now the Schaeffler Group has launched a high performance stainless steel for rolling bearings that helps companies achieve these goals. Cronitect provides maximum corrosion resistance under extreme operating conditions, including dry running applications or when bearings come into contact with aggressive media.
