NSK bearings - Helping you maintain your production momentum

NSK believes that unplanned downtime is not an option - Keep your machinery running all year round!

Working closely with the cement, ready-mix concrete & aggregate industries we continue to build on our experience & knowledge of your industrial processes, applications and problem areas. Through close partnerships with equipment manufacturers and end users, NSK engineers ensure they understand your requirements, environment and applications to help solve problems with reliable solutions. Our products are engineered to enable you to overcome unplanned downtime and give solutions to the inherent problems of contamination and vibration.

NSK offers bearings, services and solutions to work on the critical factors - reliability, quality and reduced maintenance - improving your uptime and your bottom line.

Is contamination your biggest problem?

Plant reliability is key to achieving production targets.

Improve the life and performance of your machinery regardless of the conditions - wet, heat, dust, vibration or load.

Contamination is ever present and eventually it wears away at your machinery's effectiveness, often creating unplanned downtime - 80% of premature bearing failure is still the result of poor,or low, lubrication and high contamination levels.
Through our FOUR CORE TECHNOLOGIES NSK drives innovation in material, lubrication, sealing and bearing design  - creating bearings which resist spalling, flaking, wear and seizure caused by damage contamination.

NSK partnerships provide you with tailored solutions to suit your purpose alongside industry experience and engineering knowledge which will continuously help improve efficiencies within your applications:
Kilns, Grinding Mills, Ball Mills, Pump & Gearboxes, Hydraulic Roll Press, Fans & Air Handling Units, Motors & Conveyors

What can help eliminate failures?

The primary failing point in conveyors is the bearings in the pulleys, followed by the bearings in the motor and gearbox, even though bearings are not always the root cause of the problem. Extending the life of the bearing is vital to extending the life of the conveyor belt.

NSKHPS™ high performance spherical roller bearings were designed to do exactly this - reduce failure rates & give longer life. 
NSK TF - Tough Steel bearings were developed to reduce wear from contaminants extending the production run in arduous areas.
NSK Molded-Oil bearings help you over come your lubrication problems, reducing failures and the need for lubrication maintenance. 
NSK Long-life-VS spherical roller bearings offer high operational reliability with little maintenance requirements, designed to undergo the heaviest of stresses, vibration and misalignment.

With this selection of bearings your problems are minimised. NSK engineers can advise you on choosing the most suitable bearing for your machinery, applications, processes & conditions, ensuring you get the most out of your machinery.

How can you make a pump run forever?

Nothing lasts forever, but you could make them run for longer!
Most companies ignore their pumps until they fail, then the main concern is what is the quickest way to get them running again.  Pumps are vital components in the cement & related industry machinery and processes, therefore it is critical that they run efficiently and effectively. With proper maintenance and lubrication they could run for longer. 

The most common failure for centrifugal pumps (the most common industrial pump used in the world) are the seals, the lubricant and the bearings.  All three points are related, if the seals fail the bearing can fail, if there is not enough lubricant, the bearing can fail quickly afterwards.

By talking with NSK engineers you could benefit from longer life in your pumps - they can advise and help you respond to the problems on your site concerning machinery, sealing, fit, lubrication and maintenance issues & practises to ensure you get the most out of your bearings and therefore pumps.
