How Rotating Equipment Performance works

Updated: Jun 22, 2020

Whether you want to solve a specific rotating equipment problem, increase your plant and equipment performance, or improve your overall maintenance strategy and efficiency, SKF is your partner. With access to unique application insights, together with the right products, connected technologies and solutions, we can help you get the performance you are looking for from your rotating equipment.


Speak to us and we can help identify your key areas for maximizing savings and improvements, and give you access to the latest connected technologies and services without the need for large capital investment. With different service levels to choose from, you can either maintain a product-based purchasing approach while seeing the benefits of improved performance, or evolve to a performance-based approach and remove many of the risks.


Traditionally, bearings are purchased on price. This transactional approach however ignores many interrelated elements, which contribute to rotating equipment performance and overall total cost of ownership.


In response to these challenges, we have created SKF Rotation For Life – an integrated solutions programme focused on improving the overall efficiency of your rotating equipment. For a fixed monthly fee, you secure a long-term, performance-based agreement, which combines bearing technology, failure detect-ability and reliability services into an integrated package. It's a win-win contract, very well documented and tracked through key performance indicators.


Benefits of the SKF Rotation For Life programme include:

  • Improved rotating equipment reliability

  • Reduced overall operating cost of critical assets, leading to a reduced total cost of ownership

  • Lower capital expense through better supply chain processes and services

  • Predictable disbursement thanks to fixed monthly fee based on agreed on performance targets

  • Short payback with short implementation programme

SKF Rotation For Life includes all or part of the following:

  • Lubrication management - system and lubricants

  • Sealing solutions

  • Condition monitoring services and technologies

  • Root cause failure analysis

  • Mechanical services such as inspections, bearing mounting and dismounting

  • Knowledge transfer through customized training

  • Bearing service life maximization

  • Bearing rework/re-manufacturing
