‘Bearing Technology’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Split roller bearings used on colliery conveyors from
Revolvo, which we summarised at the time by saying "SRB Split Roller Bearings from Revolvo are being used at the Hatfield Colliery near Doncaster. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release SKF units improve continuous-cast milling from
SKF UK: "Two SKF solutions have been developed to deliver benefits to continuous casting mills. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK
- take a look at Parker team to develop wind-energy technology
which says: "Parker Hannifin has expanded its range of products, systems and customer services in the power sector. ".
Take a look also at the news release from SICK (UK), SICK to exhibit at manufacturing technology event,
as well as SKS to distribute XYZ machines tools in Scotland from SKS Engineering,
and Nitrogen generators cut costs of food packaging from Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK.
