Mining

Every machine operating in the demanding mining industry needs bearings. They ensure the smooth operation of belt conveyors, crushers, excavators, trucks and many other devices on which the efficiency of mines and quarries depends. In such extreme conditions as the mining industry, bearings must meet extremely high requirements.
Durability and reliability are the key features of bearings used in machines operating in the mining industry. Subjected to enormous loads, vibrations, dust and pollution, they must be made of the highest quality materials and using the latest technologies.

Modern bearings for the mining industry are:

• Greater resistance to abrasion and seizures: This is particularly important in dusty and polluted environments, where particles of rocks and minerals may penetrate the bearing and cause its damage. Modern bearings are equipped with high-class seals that protect them against dirt, moisture and excessive loss of grease.
• Longer service life: Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and special lubricants and seals, these bearings last longer compared to traditional models. This means fewer breakdowns, less frequent repairs and saving time and money.
• Higher efficiency: Modern bearings are characterized by low friction resistance, which translates into lower energy consumption and higher machine efficiency.
• Improved vibration resistance: Vibration is another factor that may negatively affect the service life of bearings operating in difficult mining conditions. Modern models are designed in such a way that they can dampen vibrations and protect the bearings against damage. Perfect examples include: Vibration-insulating spherical roller bearings from the X-life series by Schaeffler.

Albeco — Your supplier of the most efficient bearings.

In our online store you will find high-quality bearings designed to work in the harshest conditions, including in machines operating in mines and gravel pits. The wide range of machines used in the mining industry means that almost every type of bearing that you can choose from our over 65,000 stock items will find its application.

We provide the most innovative technological solutions in the field of bearings, allowing to reduce failures and downtime related to maintenance work.

Our extensive offer includes:

• Covered spherical roller bearings - especially NTN bearings from the KIZEI series, ensuring better retention of lubricant inside the bearing and protection against external solid contamination compared to open spherical roller bearings.
• Vibrating (vibro-isolating) spherical roller bearings - bearings intended for vibrating machines, including gravel screens, which are characterized by high load carrying capacity and resistance to high loads, high speeds and accelerations, and centrifugal forces.
• Spherical bearings - including spherical bearings from the special FLURO series for operation in difficult conditions, e.g. in loading cranes.
• Taper roller bearings - used, among others, in heavy industrial gears or truck hubs.
• Ball bearings - all types of ball bearings widely used due to their simplicity and universality, also in the mining industry, in particular premium ball bearings from SKF and FAG.
