Overview How can you improve productivity and meet increasing demands without driving up costs? You’re under constant pressure to run machines at higher speeds for greater throughput, which pushes production lines past their limits. Your purchasing department is directed to choose lower-price replacement parts, and even OEMspeciied parts are often designed to be ‘just good enough.’ In this vicious cycle, maintenance downtime creates higher repair costs and makes it harder to meet output targets. Running machinery to failure leads to reactive maintenance, which is the highest-cost approach...

Bearing remanufacturing Replacing bearings can be an expensive proposition, both in new bearing cost and lost productivity. At SKF, we take bearings that were slated for scrapping and expertly remanufacture them to like-new condition for extended service. All ball and roller bearings — regardless of OEM —10" to 315" in diameter • Slewing ring bearings • Ball and roller: thrust, radial, multi-row • Roller: cross, three-row, cylindrical • Contact ball: four- and eight-point • Thin section ball and roller • Caster bearings • Backing bearings • Bearings smaller than 10" may be remanufactured as...

Rope sheave remanufacturing The rope sheave is a key element in the paper-making process. If sheaves are not running properly, the rope can slip, resulting in rope wear, paper tail tears, and broken ropes, requiring unscheduled shut-downs. Lubricant leakage damages the paper, and the need to access hazardous locations puts maintenance personnel at risk. SKF replacement rope sheaves operate maintenance-free for two years or more, and are an excellent solution for the ‘wet end’ of paper mills where humidity is an issue. the bad performers with rope sheaves rebuilt by SKF, unplanned downtime...
