The INA caged needle roller bearing has made a significant contribution to the development of smaller, more efficient and cost effective vehicles. Even today it would be hard to imagine an automotive transmission system that didn’t use needle roller bearings.

Side note — I also believe that the technology of iPhones assisted in the continued success of AUTEC and changed the business, in a positive way. It made me reassess how things could be sold, how to utilize the internet and how to capture the public’s attention.

For the customer, these improvements mean less lubricant stress, reduced friction and lower bearing temperatures, which in turn results in a more energy efficient bearing. Furthermore, the increase in performance capacity enables the bearing to be downsized for the application, with corresponding reductions in the weight of the bearing and its space requirements.

‘It appears that both exoplanets are very different from Mars and the Earth because they have a weaker connection with their sibling planets,’ said Li, a faculty member in the School of Physics. 

The holes in the yokes are oversized and contain a (plain) bearing. The cross is inserted into the first yoke from the inside, then the bearings get pressed in or mounted from the outside. Then the other yoke is positioned “around” the cross and it’s bearings inserted. Since the bearings don’t have to hold much of an axial force (in the bearing axis that is) they can be held in place by a simple press fit or using something like cir-clips or a retainer ring. As long as they stay in place under the centrifugal forces anything’ll do.

The Supplier Award 2017 for Achievement in Quality is the third Toyota Motor Europe award presented to NSK Needle Bearing Poland, with the other awards being in 2008 and 2014. Winning the award is based on a number of KPIs (key performance indicators), including PPM (parts per million), which is used by many OEMs to measure how many defects are supplied in a million parts. Warranty claims and claims management are among the other KPIs scrutinised for the award.
