Brazilian Customer Achieves 15% Higher Transmission Efficiency and 30% Longer Maintenance Cycle with FXM140-50SX Bearings
A gearbox manufacturer in São Paulo, Brazil, faced issues of low transmission efficiency and overheating during continuous operation. The hot, humid climate often caused lubricant degradation and accelerated wear, increasing maintenance costs. The company sought a reliable bearing capable of stable performance under high torque and temperature.
We supplied the FXM140-50SX heavy-duty bearing, engineered from premium bearing steel with deep-groove raceways for outstanding fatigue resistance. Combined with high-temperature grease and a sealed dust-proof structure, it maintained quiet, efficient operation under continuous load. Our customized assembly-fit solution improved alignment accuracy and reduced energy loss.
After implementation, the client reported a 15% increase in transmission efficiency and a 30% reduction in downtime. Maintenance intervals were extended from six to nine months, and noise levels dropped significantly. The plant manager stated, “These bearings remain stable even under heavy heat and load, greatly improving uptime.” The FXM140-50SX model has since become part of their standard procurement program.
The FXM140-50SX bearing is now a preferred choice for Brazil’s industrial sector operating under continuous high-load conditions. We will continue to provide high-quality bearing solutions worldwide, helping equipment run more efficiently and durably.
