Spherical and cylindrical roller bearings need to withstand heavy use in industrial applications, while also fulfilling a performance warranty of up to 25 years. The required degree of durability is ensured, in part, by machining the products with ATLANTIC grinding and finishing tools.
In finishing, we are able to achieve surface finish values that are less than 0.02 µm. However, it is not only in terms of surface finish that ATLANTIC abrasives fulfil the most stringent of customer requirements. Roundness values less than 1 µm help to increase the service life of the roller bearings significantly.
