Paper industry

Schaeffler provides customized bearing technology and services for the paper industry. Schaeffler has extensive expertise. Due to decades of cooperation with paper machine manufacturers and maintenance production departments, many paper mills benefit from Schaeffler's solutions, which make it possible to economically and safely improve production speed with greater reliability.
Paper machine is a giant in the field of Mechanical Engineering: it is not uncommon to have a length of 200 meters and a width of 10 meters. In just one minute, nearly 2000 meters of paper flew about 120 kilometers across the machine on the roller and roller. The rolling bearings used here are highly required in terms of humidity, heat, shaft deflection, high speed and long service life. Only the extremely reliable rolling bearings can achieve good paper quality. Bearing arrangement is more complex, so it is necessary to innovate. Through continuous product maintenance and further development, Schaeffler can almost always meet new challenges through reliable and cost-effective solutions.
