Raise efficiency & lower costs

Published:  12 January, 2023

RUBIX, a leading UK supplier of industrial maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) products and services, has announced it has released a new brochure, produced with bearings manufacturer SKF.

‘SKF Cooper Split E-Series Bearings’ is a 6-page brochure that highlights how to reduce downtime, enhance worker safety, and increase efficiency, particularly in harsh or inaccessible applications where mounting, dismantling or maintenance can be a challenge.

Replacing damaged or worn bearings in heavy machinery that requires servicing or maintenance can be a problematic. Often faced with complex dismantling and assembly procedures – involving costly production losses from machinery shut down - it can take more than one person many hours to change a solid bearing. In extreme cases, it may even be necessary to break and replace a piece of expensive equipment to remove a faulty solid bearing.
