What is a Bearing?

NSK Services - What's a Bearing?: A guide to bearing components, their special features and uses.

Bearings for Automatic Transmission

Bearings for automatic transmissions - from bearing and friction plates to one-way clutches, each component is thinner, lighter and more efficient. Our goal: to reduce energy loss by half.

Electric Power Steering

Electric power steering - Energy-saving EPS - designed to reduce the amount of wheel turning and effort needed and to improve steering effectiveness by using electric power instead.

Hub Unit Bearing

Hub Unit Bearing - revolutionised by a new cold extrusion technique, they surround the axis of each wheel and handle many kinds of forces: forward propulsion, turning and stopping.

Steering Column - Electric Tilt Telescopic

Electric tilt telescopic steering - designed to anticipate your every move, the telescopic shaft adjusts in length to match the pre-programmed seating position. Our lighter and more compact design uses smaller motors that require 40% less power.

Electric Accessory and Engine Bearings

Electric accessory & Engine Bearings - bearings used in the engine, in the alternator and motors of the electric accessories. Designed to be strong enough to withstand tough conditions like heat, vibration, sudden changing loads, water, sand and dust.

Automotive

Global Account Management - From the development stage up to customer-service following start of mass-production, we offer the required solutions to our customers: a strong local coordination and a most efficient implementation in all targeted countries.

Fans and Blowers

NSK Industries - Fans and blowers: NSK bearings for different types of fans and drive systems

Maintenance training for precision bearings

NSK Industries - Maintenance training for precision bearings: NSK engineers provided a bespoke training course focussed on precision bearings for machine tool spindles to a french car manufacturer

Mixing Machine

NSK Industries - Mixing Machine: A tyre manufacturer detected clearance inside bearings on his mixing machine. He was ready to stop the machine and dismount the bearings.

Machining Centre - Valve Manufacture

NSK Industries - Machining Centre, Valve Manufacture: NSK Sealed Angular Contact Bearings increase spindle life from 4 months to 1 year.

Tyre Manufacturing

NSK Industries - Tyre Manufacturing: By introducing a higher specification NSK Ball Screw, life time was extended, increasing uptime and efficiency whilst reducing unplanned failures.

CNC Spindle

NSK Industries - CNC Spindle: Within a big Automotive production plant the machine tool spindles often broke down due to spindle failures. The maintenance department of the production plant had to change the bearings every 2 weeks.

Motor Spindle

NSK Industries - Motor Spindle: improvement of bearing performance and reliability, significant reduction in manufacturing costs

Machine Centre

NSK Industries - Machine Centre: A worldwide manufacturer of automotive components was having significant unplanned stoppages due to the failure of the Ball Screws in the Machining Center.

Machining Centre

NSK Industries - Machining Centre: NSK proposed a sealed spindle bearing with significant improvements in bearing life.
