Application of German SKL bearing in agricultural machinery industry

Time:2022-09-16 14:16:00click:585
Industry application overview
Agricultural machinery and equipment need to operate under many similar challenging conditions. Mud, dust and debris, extremely hot and cold temperatures, rain wash, and sometimes corrosive chemicals and other harsh conditions are everywhere. After being idle for a long time, it is necessary to carry out high-intensity operation. Rising fuel costs and new environmental regulations can only complicate the problem. SKL bearings provide solutions for equipment at all stages of the crop cycle. You can achieve high reliability at lower cost of ownership and operation. SKL's complete logistics system enables you to obtain any spare parts and transport them to any place where you are.
Typical customers in the industry
Sam Deutz-Fahr is a typical customer of SKL bearings in the agricultural machinery industry, and agricultural tractors are the main force of agriculture. They must work intensively for a long time under harsh road conditions. Therefore, focusing on safety, availability and productivity is the main driver of many industry trends, such as automation, intelligence and power management. The main objectives are to achieve higher efficiency, reduce friction loss, reduce fuel cost, and improve power density and reliability. The time for the tractor to travel back and forth in different places away from the work site should also be taken into account. Therefore, it is necessary to drive fast and maintain a compact tractor design to facilitate turning, so as to really improve the working efficiency of the equipment. SKL bearings have specially developed a wide range of bearing, sealing and lubrication systems for many applications under harsh conditions.
Industry application examples
SKL bearings provide the bearing, sealing and lubrication system for Sam Deutz-Fahr, which brings huge potential benefits to Sam Deutz-Fahr: the equipment productivity is increased by 150%, the total cost of ownership is reduced by 30%, and the installation and maintenance are easier.
