Bearings from Spyraflo save machining, material and assembly time; they simplify assembly and their compact design means they take up less space in congested mechanisms.
Bearings from Spyraflo save machining, material and assembly time; they simplify assembly and their compact design means they take up less space in congested mechanisms.
The patented Self-Clinching and Self-Aligning bearings solve design problems for machine and equipment makers where enhanced bearing performance and downward pricing are major drivers.
By having the bearing mounted securely into the chassis of a fabricated machine, the Spyraflo solution is ideal for any designer packing shafts and multiple components into tight fitting situations.
The broad range of Self-Clinching, Self-Aligning bearings is finding more and more applications in a wide variety of OEM markets, they include: postage meters, digital printers, vending machines, ATMs in addition to more aggressive applications such as lawnmowers, cargo handling conveyors and personnel gangways.
By ensuring smooth running shafts, low cost assembly and zero maintenance, these bearings have spurred a virtual revolution in how bearings are incorporated in the design and assembly of machines and equipment.
"Micromech is a recognised motion and control specialist whose service and technical support make them the obvious choice as out distributor", said Peter Allen the CEO for Spyraflo.
"We believe that together we can build on Spyraflo's current UK success and find many more manufactures who have not yet discovered the advantages of "Self-Clinching Bearings".
"The pressures to speed up production and value engineer to take costs out of manufacturing will be often answered by the installation of Spyraflo bearings", agreed Trevor DeWilde of Micromech.
"We are delighted by our appointment and believe the Spyraflo solution will be the answer for those seeking enhanced bearing performance and simplified designs", Trevor added.
