Bogie bearings for cranes
Improved operation
Bogie bearings with D-glide® composite material
At DRIE-D, we are committed to transforming the way crane bogie bearings perform. With the unique properties of D-glide®, we focus on durability, reliability, and efficiency. Our bogie bearings are essential elements for a more efficient and reliable crane system. D-glide® provides exceptional wear resistance, minimizing or even eliminating the need for frequent maintenance. This approach goes beyond enhancing single components—it’s about setting new standards for the performance of the entire crane mechanism.
Benefits of Bogie Bearings with D-glide®
The integration of D-glide® into bogie bearings offers a multitude of benefits that significantly enhance the performance and reliability of crane systems.
- Long-term operational stability: the superior wear resistance of D-glide® extends the lifespan of bogie bearings.
- Smooth movement: Low friction coefficient of D-glide® not only facilitates smoother movement and reduced wear and tear of counter faces.
- Cost savings and improved efficiency: This material's resilience against wear and tear means fewer replacements and less downtime for maintenance.
- Low friction: The low friction of D-glide® ensures smooth operation, and reduces the stresses in surrounding components, reducing fatigue and increasing the reliability.
These benefits collectively make bogie bearings with D-glide® an exceptional choice for enhancing the functionality and longevity of crane systems.
