A global leader in the manufacture of mining equipment required a sustainable high quality product supply specifically suited for the harsh conditions under which their continuous mining equipment normally operates. After scrutinising numerous alternative product supply channels without success and with varying results, from poor quality product to unreliable deliveries, the manufacturer approached SKF South Africa for a solution. According to SKF South Africa Product Manager - Power Transmission, Frans Pienaar, SKF was able to offer a sustainable power transmission solution, which forms part of the company’s other core technologies – bearings and units, seals, mechatronics and service.
“Our comprehensive solution, which comprises a SKF 160H cottered roller chain, meets our customer’s needs seamlessly ensuring that our customer trusts the SKF roller chain to transmit power to the driving mechanisms of their equipment.” The high quality chain provides excellent durability and reliability with the advantages of convenient onsite repair as well as customising capabilities in space constrained applications. Quick, easy maintenance and the diminished risk of unplanned stoppage due to breakages offer the lucrative benefits of reduced down time and increased uptime.
“The fact that we are able to offer unsurpassed quality products from a single world class supplier as well as a dependable product supply from a reliable supply chain, gives our customers confidence in our products and capabilities. The reliability of our products, combined with our customer loyalty, is what makes SKF unique in providing the most affordable, reliable and sustainable solutions that our customers can rely on,” concludes Pienaar. According to Pienaar, this project enabled SKF to expand its product offering to include SKF power transmission products to existing industrial OEM customers.
