Highly specialized in mechanical motion, our engineers strive to provide the best solution. Our experience and cooperative approach have learned to be the binding factor to create progressive designs.
Are you ready for a new and progressive approach, providing the best sustainable and reliable solution for your mechanical motion challenge?
Our history
Our company was founded in the 90's
In cooperation with an innovative manufacturer of composite bearing material, we started to explore the use of composite in many ways. Together with two leading manufacturers of friction materials, DRIE-D started with the supply of robust, reliable products for different applications.
Our mission
To create new limits in engineering and design of composite bearings and friction solutions, sustainable, maintenance free and preserving the earth for the next generation. DRIE-D gathered a team of dedicated engineers, pure specialists thriving on the challenges of the modern engineering world.
Decades of experience
Over the years we have been involved in progressive project in diverse markets, challenging our creativity and innovative approach in design and engineering. In these projects we learned that our knowledge and experience was the binding factor pushing the limits by the use of progressive composite bearing design. When technical feasibility is challenging, we are determined to find a solution that will set a new standard for the whole industry.
DRIE-D: Present and the future
Setting new standards in solutions for everything that needs to rotate or slide (or a combination of both). With the use of our patented D-glide®, composite bearings allow higher loads than virtually all other plain bearings and have less friction and less wear.
As a competent player in friction materials, we provide reliable and robust friction solutions for different applications. With our knowledge of friction materials and our experience in challenging projects, we create progressive, sustainable and reliable friction solutions.
Combined, our knowledge of D-glide®, composite bearings, friction materials and our experience in challenging projects all come together in container handling and port equipment, resulting in improved components for mechanical motion.
