Fixed Flange Bearings Become Intelligent

Ex­pens­ive ma­chine and vehicle break­downs due to un­detec­ted faults in heavy-duty fixed flange bear­ings: these will soon be a thing of the past thanks to a new gen­er­a­tion of two- and four-hole fixed flange bear­ings. Their spe­cial fea­ture is that the bear­ings, which are made of lub­ric­a­tion-free high-per­form­ance plastic, are equipped with mini­ature wire­less sensors, en­abling con­di­tion mon­it­or­ing and pre­dict­ive main­ten­ance.
