Rolling-element bearings are high-precision components that need to be stored and handled carefully to perform as designed. Proper storage and
handling of a bearing before, during
and after installation is important because once debris enters a bearing, it
reduces the life.
Wind is a form of solar energy.
Winds are caused by the uneven heating
of the atmosphere by the sun, the
irregularities of the earth’s surface, and rotation of the earth. Wind Turbines
convert the kinetic energy in wind into
mechanical power.
Richard (RJ) Seguin, CBS and technical
sales representative at AMI Bearings,

As part of the year-long festivities,
Glenn’s adjunct Lewis Field main campus will be open to the public May 21 and 22, and Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio will hold its open house June 11 and 12.
Power Transmission Engineering is collaborating with the Bearing
