Timken EnviroSpexx Bearings Reduce Energy Consumption in Industrial Equipment

Companies focused on reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions within industrial operations can address both by selecting Timken EnviroSpexx roller bearings. EnviroSpexx tapered and spherical bearings are designed with enhanced geometries that reduce torque, lowering the amount of electricity needed to operate pumps, compressors, motors, gearboxes, and other continuously running industrial equipment. In a recent study on light industrial gearboxes, Timken EnviroSpexx roller bearings reduced torque by 10 percent per gearbox compared to standard bearings. Over five years of operation, this torque reduction could save $5,000 in energy costs and reduce carbon emissions by 25,000 pounds per gearbox. Similar results were calculated for compressors and pumps. Timken EnviroSpexx roller bearings provide sustainable solutions to help original equipment manufacturers and end users reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.
