Does your factory or plant experience a lot of downtime? Do you keep seeing repeated bearing costs appearing in your invoices? If it’s happening regularly, it can get expensive, trigger unplanned downtime and result in lost production, increased maintenance costs and additional spare part inventory.
Constantly replacing bearings that are actually designed to last a long time is frustrating and with the associated costs, it can soon mount up.
