PTC help Changjiang Bearing achievements "product first"
Bearings are widely used machine-building industry, demanding documents and supporting basic pieces, known as the mechanical joints. Bearing structure is simple and complex, it is not only necessary to consider the R & D materials, manufacturing process and application conditions, but also involves the calculation and analysis of large-scale. Most of the current bearing industry 2DCAD traditional design method, based on the calculation of Excel, as well as the structure of pure 3D tool design and analysis, and bearing the design of a simple R & D system, so the prevalence of domestic bearings industry low R & D and innovation, product reliability and life cannot meet the technical requirements, such as the current problem, but also so that the lower production capacity, production scale effect cannot be reached.
Chongqing Changjiang Bearing Co., Ltd. was founded in 1992, after ten years of development, has built a six in the country's manufacturing base, with the annual production capacity of 1 million sets of bearings and auto parts capacity. The company's own brand “CJB” bearings are widely used in automobiles, motorcycles, construction machinery and many other industries. Changjiang Bearing has been committed to become a world-class Bearing manufacturing base, it is precisely for this reason, Changjiang Bearing an urgent need for a standardized, industry research and development characteristics of the product management system to improve efficiency and quality of product development. After a thorough study and analysis, Changjiang Bearing finally select the deployment of the PTC Product Development System.
The implementation of the PTC product development system includes an integrated 3D parametric solution Pro / ENGINEER, it provides a comprehensive structural design function; Mathcad engineering calculation software can easily cope with a large number of complex projects, the implementation of automation between the two drivers model can accurately verify the design. In addition, WindchillPDMLink and ProjectLink provide Web-based management platform for collaborative design effective drawing management, automatic update BOM and 2D drawings for the follow-up project to provide a single data source, and implementation process management, process planning and information sharing.
“Through the application of PTC's Product Development System, we set up the enterprise data sources a single product so that all R & D personnel in accordance with the same set of standards for system development work to enhance the standardization of the level of the enterprise, significantly improved the quality of project delivery.” Chongqing Changjiang Bearing Shares Cui Ltd. said, “Model-driven automation to further validate the design, greatly reducing the design error, by improving the design efficiency and quality of design, innovation and speed up the Changjiang Bearing goal to reach.”
BI Pu Beijing Innovation Technology Co., Ltd. (BPLead) Project Director beneficial Xu said: “We are much honored to have the opportunity and Chongqing Changjiang Bearing Co., Ltd. to ensure the smooth implementation of the project and the successful on-line. The gold medal as a PTC and Windchill agents preferred service provider, we will, as always, to provide customers with the localization of the most professional services and support to meet the needs of customers. “
“PTC's comprehensive Product Development System build a strong design, manufacturing processes and to effectively connect and greatly improve the efficiency of product development and shorten the development cycle of new products.” PTC Asia-Pacific vice president of channel sales John Condon said, “PTC is committed to helping Chongqing Changjiang Bearing Co., Ltd., as such customers, the use of PTC Product Development System to achieve the vision of enterprise development.”

New energy-efficient bearing lines launched
New spherical and cylindrical roller bearings have been developed that meet the stringent SKF energy-efficient performance class criteria, says Tom Johnstone, SKF Group CEO and president. "Extensive testing results verify significant friction reduction compared to SKF standard bearings," he reports.
SKF energy-efficient spherical roller bearings exhibit at least 30% less friction and corresponding reduced energy consumption, considerably lower bearing temperature, extended grease life and extended relubrication intervals, according to the company. Five sizes of open bearings are the first to be introduced for industrial ventilation fan applications as part of the total SKF energy-efficient solution for fans. Additional sizes will be offered based on customer demand.
The first SKF energy efficient cylindrical roller bearings to be introduced are of the NJ series, which are designed to handle axial loads in one direction. Compared to the current SKF standard NJ series bearing, the new SKF energy-efficient cylindrical roller bearings exhibit a friction reduction of at least 30% in axial loaded applications and have a higher dynamic load rating. These new ultra-low friction bearings are intended for a wide range of applications, initially for industrial and wind energy transmissions.
The SKF energy-efficient spherical and cylindrical roller bearings are the latest in the company's energy-efficient performance class of rolling bearings. Manufacturing will be initiated during the second quarter 2009.
In 2008, in connection with the 100-year anniversary of SKF, the company introduced the energy-efficient single row deep groove ball bearing and the energy-efficient tapered roller bearing. The ranges in these two bearing types continue to expand as customer demand is increasing.
"We will continue to develop our energy efficient range of bearings as it is fundamental to our commitment to develop integrated energy efficient solutions based on our engineering knowledge in our five platforms," Johnstone notes.

AUTO SHANGHAI 2009
Auto Shanghai 2009 is organized by China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Shanghai Sub-Council and China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, Automotive Sub-Council, co-organized by Shanghai International Exhibition Co Ltd and MMG-Messe Muenchen International/IMAG-International Messe-und Ausstellungsdienst GmbH, Specially Supported by China Machinery Industry Federation, Supported by The Society of Automotive Engineers of China (SAE China).
Auto Shanghai 2009 will preempt the whole 11 indoor exhibition halls and outdoor temporary venue of Shanghai New International Exhibition Center with a total exhibition scale of 170,000 square meters. Regarding the setting of the schedule, the organizer would make April 20th and 21st 2 days as the media day available only to domestic and overseas media, which aims at facilitating the reports and journalists to report the Auto Shanghai in a comprehensive way and to conduct the interview in a detailed and unfeigned way. April 22nd to 28th are exhibiting day.
The theme of Auto Shanghai 2009 is ‘Art of Innovation’. One of the fiercest challenges we face in 21st century is the global climate changing. The environment is certainly influenced by the rapid development of automobile industry. However such an industry with 100 year long science and technology accumulation will keep creating new technology such as development and promotion of new energy and hybrid power, and the application of energy saving and emission reduction as well, by this way the automobile and latest technology are perfect combined. Auto Shanghai 2009 is expected to not only showing newest automobile and technology, but also innovating the exhibiting design, facility and method, to cultivate an artistic and harmonious atmosphere, within which the visitors and reporters could enjoy automobiles---the perfect art product under the exhibition hall roof, and feel the strength and culture foundation of automobile manufacturers.
The organizers and the co-organizers are going to inheritance the people oriented service standard and innovating and shaping its own character when the show is beginning its 13th pre-organization, which will make the show one of the most ideal and most important show and trading platforms.
