Global bearing supplier, NSK, has developed a new cost saving programme, which is designed to deliver real benefits to the operating costs, efficiency and profitability of UK food processors and manufacturers. The value of the cost saving programme has been evidenced by an initial example where NSK has delivered savings of over (GBP)24,000 per annum for a confectionery manufacturer on the operation of just one conveyor line.

Substituting NSK’s new HPS Series of spherical roller bearings for conventional SRB on a baking dough mixing machine is providing cost savings of £93,512 per annum, plus extended product life, improved productivity and reduced maintenance for a major UK bakery chain.

By employing a programme of material substitution and longer life lubrication technology, NSK has achieved cost savings of €337.600 for a manufacturer of micro wind turbines. Moreover, the manufacturer is also benefiting from extended product life, improved reliability and reduced maintenance, as a result of replacing mixed brand bearing products with NSK’s premium brand bearings and long-life grease.

NSK’s cost saving Asset Improvement Programme has succeeded in solving a recurring problem of large bearing failures in a screw pump conveying system at a major cement works. Because of contamination, 27 bearings in one year were consumed by the screw pump system. NSK has reduced this by over 50% with its solution based on Hi-TF™ bearings, at the same time reducing maintenance costs and improving reliability at the plant.

NSK’s Extra Long Life and High Reliability EP steel is saving the operator of a Sendzimir Mill in the steel industry €38,400 annually, by overcoming a problem of inner ring wear on mill bearings that was resulting in reduced bearing life of between 1,500 and 3,000 hours of operation
