Optimise asset efficiency here
July 27th 2006

SKF has launched its educational, interactive website, @ptitudeXchange, in order to allow registered users access to a wide range of information and advice from both SKF and specially selected alliance partners.

www.aptitudexchange.com is essentially a knowledge portal consisting of a comprehensive catalogue of overview documents, technical handbooks, white papers, application notes, best practices and benchmarking information, plus interactive tutorials and advisory systems. Designed specifically for use by engineers and analysts across industry, these useful resources cover all of areas of SKF’s business: bearings, lubrication, seals, linear motion and mechatronics, and condition monitoring.

One of the key goals of @ptitudeXchange is to assist engineers to optimise asset efficiency, by focusing on three categories: asset management, reliability engineering and mechanical maintenance.

Initial registration to @ptitudeXchange is free of charge, and registered users can access the majority of the information available at no cost. More detailed information is available via a choice of subscription options.
