By installing SmartCheck condition monitoring devices on 58 critical drives, Schaeffler’s European Distribution Centre has seen a range of benefits, including the prevention of unplanned downtime, reduced maintenance costs and increased machine availability.

 Owners and users can significantly extend the working range of their cobots by installing Schaeffler driven linear units as horizontal axes.

The new XZU conical thrust cage needle roller bearing by Schaeffler is used in lightweight and collaborative robots, both as an articulated arm bearing and as a main bearing support for Schaeffler’s new RTWH precision gearbox.

With Schaeffler OPTIME, comprehensive and automated condition monitoring is now a cost-effective proposition for maintenance personnel and facility operators. Schaeffler OPTIME is an efficient and easy-to-use low-cost solution designed specifically for the comprehensive condition monitoring of all indirectly process-critical assets across entire machine and equipment parks.

CONCEPT2 provides a constant and optimum supply of lubricant to the bearings.
