C&U Bearing: Research & Development
Our research and development, testing and analysis capabilities are consolidated in the C&U Research & Development Center. With a staff of more than more 170, the R&D Center leads our efforts in product innovation, application research and quality enhancements. The R&D center develops an average of 400 new products annually.
Our R&D engineers work continuously to advance bearing performance, service life, noise management, sealing technology and lubrication. To continually improve the durability and performance of our products, we regularly reevaluate our materials, manufacturing processes, quality control, testing and inspection technologies.
The C&U R&D effort is organized into dedicated specialist departments:
- Product Design Department
- CAE Research Department
- Material Analysis Department
- Chemical Analysis Department
- Measuring and Testing Department
- Performance Experiment Department
- Trial Production Workshop
Our Technical Research Department focus on design analysis:
- Steel heat treatment analysis / research / design
- Lubrication and grease analysis / research / design
- Material analysis
- Bearing life / vibration / noise / seals research
- Bearing measurement and technical analysis
Our Bearing Testing works to maintain quality assurance:
- Endurance, environmental, and conditional testing
- Component development testing
- DVP review and reporting
