​The development of green and efficient steel-making continuous casting process to produce high load bearing steel balls has become the industry's pursuit goal

To support carbon neutrality, a new 100% bioplastic heat-resistant cage for rolling bearings is available from NSK. Compared to conventional plastic cages made from fossil fuels, use of the plant-derived material contributes to reducing CO2 emissions. Plastic cages are also lighter, achieve lower friction, and support more advanced, complex shapes than steel cages. Functional evaluation tests of air conditioner fan motor bearings with NSK bioplastic cages versus conventional plastic cages confirmed equivalent performance in noise level, friction, and operating life.

IMPCO Machine Tools, Lansing, Mich., received orders for five microfinishing systems to be delivered to the OEM plants in Mexico and the USA. Order total is $3.5 million. Each robot-loaded system is designed to microfinish thebearingdiameter to millionths of an inch (1 µm) on a family of 300 mm rotor shafts used in the drivetrain of electric vehicles.

​The precautions for the use of common bearings mainly include the following points.

Hybrid bearings have rings made of bearing steel and rolling elements made of bearing grade silicon nitride, which make the bearings electrically insulating. They can extend bearing service life by offering enhanced bearing performance, even under difficult operating conditions.

Schaeffler carried out a training campaign for schoolchildren in Chemnitz together with Microsoft and Helliwood to strengthen their digital skills. There, the participants were able to put their newly acquired skills into practice by visiting a training company. The global automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler is conducting this training initiative together with the international hardware and software manufacturer Microsoft and with Helliwood, a division of the association for youth and social work.
