PR Newswire (US)
CANTON, Ohio, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- The Timken Company (NYSE:TKR)
today announced it has expanded its innovative line of
condition-monitoring equipment to include a bearing tester
instrument. Its portable, compact design helps make the bearing
tester a convenient tool for checking the condition and lubrication
condition of ball- and roller- type bearings in many customer
applications. An economical solution for maintenance personnel,
this technology complements a comprehensive predictive- maintenance
program. "Every day, customers turn to Timken to help maximize
their uptime with cost-effective solutions," said Daniel J. Szoch,
manager for Timken's condition-monitoring solutions business with
the Industrial Group. "Adding the bearing tester to our product
portfolio gives our customers yet another way to increase their
productivity by helping them detect potential failures and correct
them before unplanned downtime can occur." The bearing tester
utilizes shock-pulse analysis for early detection of bearing damage
and marginal lube-film conditions. A built-in microprocessor
analyzes the shock-pulse patterns from the bearing and displays an
immediate evaluation on a green-yellow-red condition scale. The
bearing tester also has an infrared sensor to measure surface
temperature and a stethoscope function to detect sound
irregularities via headphones. In addition to the bearing tester,
Timken continues to expand its broad portfolio of
condition-monitoring solutions that now includes portable
instruments, continuous monitoring devices, online systems and
reliability services. These solutions are applicable to a wide
range of industries to create customer value by helping to maximize
uptime, reduce maintenance costs and improve productivity. For more
