Bearing supports and components make a decisive contribution to the reliability and quality of industrial applications. The Industrial division's range includes everything from miniature bearings only a few millimeters wide through to large-size bearings with an outside diameter of several meters. Smart products and the networking of components are coming increasingly to the fore. In "Machine Tool 4.0", sensors measure and report the vibrations, forces and temperature of all relevant bearing positions and thus offer "added value by digitalization".
Industrial Aftermarket
Schaeffler Industrial Aftermarket is responsible for the replacement parts and service business for end customers and sales partners in all major industrial sectors. Industrial Aftermarket reduces maintenance and operating costs, increases machine availability, and thus boosts its customers’ business success through comprehensive, innovative solutions, products, and services for rolling and plain bearings, as well as by consistently applying the total cost of ownership philosophy (TCO). Saving resources is a factor that is becoming more and more important in this context.
In order to increase machine availability, we also offer a wide range of systems for condition monitoring and also perform remote monitoring for our customers. This means that the risk of breakdowns can be minimized for machines that are difficult to access or critical in the event of a failure, such as cruise ships and wind turbines.
