Spindle Designs with High Reliability & Built To Last Spindle Designs with High Reliability & Built To Last

SETCO spindle designs offer the machine builder high performance in a low maintenance package. By applying state-of-the-art spindle technologies, to meet specific application needs, we can deliver a spindle that will increase productivity and improved reliability to reduce product manufacturing costs. As a leader in spindle technologies, our expertise provides us the ability to achieve higher performance and increase reliability. New greases, specifically designed for higher speed spindles, allow higher permissible operating speeds, lower operating temperatures, and longer spindle life without the necessity to use inherently less reliable and costly air/oil lubrication systems. Improvements in bearing materials and geometries allow for higher load capacities, speed, and precision, while providing lower operating temperatures. And the development of a revolutionary industrial seal design, the patented SETCO AirShield
™ , eliminated the problems caused by contamination and coolant ingress; the most common reason for all spindle failures. Historically, the most common spindle failure is caused by bearing failure due to contamination from coolant ingress, condensation, contamination, or chip damage. In most cases, contamination enters the spindle because the spindle seal failed. The SETCO AirShield

Eliminates Bearing Contamination Problems Eliminates Bearing Contamination Problems

™ eliminatedspindle failure due to bearing contamination and proven itself as the best and most reliable spindle seal in the industry. This statement is proven by extensive testing over 5 years without a single failure attributable to the AirShield performance and backed by the longest and best warranty in the industry. The SETCO AirShield
™ is the most reliable spindle seal in the industry and carries a 3-year standard limited warranty! 5 The patented AirShield™design is the only spindleseal that offers both dynamic and static protection for 100% elimination of coolant ingress and spindle contamination. Unlike other spindle air seal systems, the AirShield™design does not inhibit spindle bearing lubrication. It is non-contaminating and maintenance free requiring only clean and dry shop air. 5 SETCO
