The digital revolution in railway bearings

Home 5 Bearings segments 5 Railway industry 5 The digital revolution in railway bearings

KINEX BEARINGS is no longer just a bearing manufacturer. We are innovating inspection processes, access to detailed data for every bearing, and even the future of the railway industry itself. Every bearing we deliver comes with its own digital DNA, enabling customers to obtain data that helps optimize and streamline inspection and identification processes.

The main advantage for our partners is cost savings in parameter inspection and monitoring during wheelset assembly and maintenance processes.

> Savings: Control = statistical sample,
time and money

We supply bearings with P6 precision, measured automatically.
Assembly is carried out directly from the box without incoming inspection.
Inspection shifts to statistical sampling – saving time, labor, and costs.
