Introducing the world’s first hybrid bearing life model from SKF
SKF has unveiled a pioneering model that, for the first time, enables the working life of hybrid bearings to be determined more realistically.Gothenburg, Sweden, 19 June 2019: Called the Generalized Bearing Life Model (GBLM), its development will ensure that SKF customers and distributors choose the right bearing for the right application, every time. Until now, it has been difficult for engineers to predict whether a hybrid bearing will outperform a steel one in a given application, or whether the possible performance benefits that hybrid bearings enable are worth the extra investment
