SKF Agri Hub for harsh tillage

SKF’s re-lubrication-free unit extends service life by up to 100%, cuts maintenance and speeds tillage for greater profitability. To maximise farm productivity, tillage machinery is getting bigger. Larger diameter, heavier tillage discs allow deeper tillage penetration, but they endure the same harsh contaminants and even heavier loads than smaller discs. Shock impacts with stones can cause structural cracks, while failed seals can allow contaminants to cause disc bearing failure. SKF Agri Hub for harsh tillage can handle these operating challenges and more. Designed as a heavy-duty alternative to standard-sized hub units, SKF Agri Hub for harsh tillage connects disc harrow arms to larger diameter tillage discs (>610 mm/24 in.). By combining larger components and a unique dual sealing system, the unit’s service life is increased by up to 2 times compared to standard units, while eliminating the need to re-lubricate the disc hubs after each use. It also allows higher tillage speeds in harsh soil conditions. The unit’s dual seal solution incorporates both an SKF Mudblock seal and a cassette bearing seal for exceptional sealing performance – field tests confirm up to 100% extended service life compared to alternative harsh tillage hub units in the market. SKF Agri Hub for harsh tillage also features a larger flange and shaft to accommodate larger diameter discs operating at higher loads and tillage speeds. Part of the proven SKF Agri Hub range, SKF Agri Hub for harsh tillage is backed by SKF’s global capabilities, including extensive engineering support and fast delivery options. SKF is a leading global supplier of bearings, seals, mechatronics, lubrication systems, and services which include technical support, maintenance and reliability services, engineering consulting and training. SKF is represented in more than 130 countries and has around 17,000 distributor locations worldwide.

DEMAG’S NEW DOUBLE V-GIRDER QUADRUPLES LIFTING CAPACITY

Image
Demag, one of the oldest crane manufacturers in the world established almost 200 years ago, has developed a new Double V-Girder crane which is capable of a 50T lifting capacity – four times that of the Single Girder. The double-girder overhead travelling cranes offer exceptional load capacity for a low deadweight. Their outstanding crane geometry also provides for extremely good travel characteristics, which minimises wear on the end carriages and crane runway. The load hook can be raised between the two crane girders, which allow large lifting heights to be achieved. The crane offers high long and cross-travel speeds thanks to high-performance double-girder design. The girders can be adapted to building structure requirements and has minimum approach dimensions thanks to the compact travelling hoist design. “Since the launch of the V-Girder in 2016, 60% of all our single girder cranes produced locally are now V-Girders”, said Richard Roughly, Senior Manager: Sales & Mark
