As part of its AIP programme, NSKs Engineering team – alongside the customers own employees – conduct comprehensive reviews on all aspects of a company’s operations, including systems, stock, specific problem applications, lubrication, and even training issues. An analysis of the data acquired is then performed and this leads to recommendations for improvements.
In practice, these recommendations could relate to a specific product solution or even training: covering issues such as how to examine or look after bearings; how to spot failure modes; and how to handle bearings correctly – as this is one of the most common causes of premature bearing failure.
NSK has helped 100’s of customers avoid major process pitfall’s, achieve higher rates of productivity and save thousands of euros every year! To indicate how important these cost savings can be, NSK has launched a Cost Savings Calculator App that allows users to compare their existing bearings set up with an improved NSK solution.
Many examples of the implementation of NSK’s AIP approach can be seen in the various Success Stories available on NSK’s website; or even by using NSK’s Solutions App, where the user is taken through a journey of real life Success Stories. The App’s are available through NSK’s website or directly from all major App stores.
