Fit-for-purpose fitting tools reduce failures Situation Constant brinelling/denting of small bore bearings fitted to a customer’s conveyor roller was a reoccurring problem. Their current fitting kit had parts missing so the fitters were using standard tools, hammers etc creating unforeseen stress and damage to the bearings on fitment.

Ref: PS211

Solution An easily transportable fully cased fitting kit from simatec - including dead weight hammer and a selection of dies allowing for a more accurate fitment - was supplied from stock at ERIKS and delivered to the customer’s site the following day. Damage and premature failures were literally reduced overnight.
