Preassembled bearing units from NKE – Easy to install, versatile combination options

Preassembled bearing units from NKE – Easy to install, versatile combination options

Austrian bearing manufacturer NKE is presenting its range of ready-to-mount bearing units at this year's international Motek, international fair for assembly and handling technology and automation in Stuttgart, Germany. The bearing units, which consist of a bearing fitted in a cast or pressed housing, offer simple, reliable and cost-effective bearing solutions for material handling systems such as conveyors. They are also used in heavy and agricultural machinery as well as in the steel industry. The housings of the bearing units are made from cast iron or pressed sheet steel and can be combined with a range of different bearing inserts. Having a high stiffness, cast iron housings are resistant against deformation and can therefore absorb moderate to high loads. For applications with lower loads, galvanised pressed sheet steel housings are available. These have a much lower weight than their cast counterparts and are exceptionally easy to install.
