Bearings for Non-ferrous Metal Rolling Mills

Operating Conditions

Non-ferrous Mill Operating Conditions

Variable Radial & Combined Loads

Non-ferrous rolling processes create changing radial loads and, in some positions, combined radial and axial loads.

Surface Quality & Precision

Strip, foil and finishing mills require stable rotation, controlled runout and consistent roll support to protect product surface quality.

Heat, Coolant & Contamination

Hot rolling, cooling systems and process environments may expose bearings to heat, coolant, metal particles and contamination.

High Speed & Low Friction

Thin strip, foil and finishing lines may require higher rotational speed, low friction and stable temperature.

Continuous Production

Non-ferrous rolling lines require reliable performance and predictable maintenance with limited production interruption.
