Plastic parts from igus UK are being used within wind power applications from the development stage right through to the final production unit.

SKF has extended meantime between failure (MTBF) for British baking firm Warburtons from 6 months to 3 years with SKF extreme temperature Y-bearings (insert bearings), a dry lubrication option that removes the need for using expensive high temperature greases. The new bearings have brought a range of benefits to Warburtons, including reduced maintenance costs, minimised risk of product contamination and the reduction of unscheduled downtime.
