Bearing training tailored to needs

Schaeffler UK offers a broad mix of training courses at basic and advanced levels to suit all delegates’ skill levels. Courses include: introduction to rolling bearings; rolling bearing technology; rolling bearing lubrication; rolling bearing failure analysis; rolling bearing mounting; bearings for electric motors; introduction to condition monitoring; vibration analysis (Levels 1 and 2); and Detector III (Schaeffler’s handheld vibration monitoring device).

Training is delivered by qualified Schaeffler engineers with many years' experience in the design, application and operation of rolling element bearings. Schaeffler specialists in vibration analysis and condition monitoring provide support and share their technical expertise with course delegates.

Dr Steve Lacey, engineering manager at Schaeffler UK, commented: "The content of our training courses is continually updated to reflect the latest developments in rolling bearing technology and condition monitoring. While we provide standard modules for ease of selection, we are happy to discuss the customer’s requirements and tailor the course accordingly. For example, we can provide a combined course that includes content from rolling bearing technology, rolling bearing lubrication and bearing failure analysis modules, rolled into one bespoke course.”

Training courses are held either at the UK Schaeffler Technology Centre in Sutton Coldfield or on-site at the customer's premises.
