The 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Expo (CIAAE) was grandly opened at the Zhuhai International Airshow Centre on 12 November. SKF (SKF) with industry-leading high-performance aviation solutions appeared again, showing the aviation airframe bearings, ceramic ball bearings and other cutting-edge aviation bearing products, as well as green and clean SKF oil recirculator (RecondOil Box) and other equipment, to help China’s civil commercial aviation development.
With the continuous development and growth of China’s civil aviation industry, SKF, with its long-term experience and expertise in the aviation field, provides a solid backing for its customers in China’s civil aviation with its advanced bearing design concepts, stable and reliable product quality and integrated solutions, as well as comprehensive inspection, maintenance and failure analysis services.
In terms of products, SKF not only guarantees the reliability of the products, but also provides bearing weight reduction solutions, effectively reducing fuel consumption and emissions, increasing the payload of the aircraft, and helping customers reduce operating costs. At the same time, SKF RecondOil Box oil recirculator improves the performance of equipment by purifying the oil, and reduces equipment downtime and maintenance costs caused by oil contamination.
In terms of maintenance services and production, SKF, with its rich experience in the bearing field, provides users with perfect maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services, which effectively reduces resource consumption and carbon emissions. In addition, SKF also promotes zero-carbon manufacturing and clean production in its various manufacturing bases across China to honour its green commitments with practical actions. As sustainable development becomes a global consensus, SKF is committed to creating cleaner skies with the aviation industry through its solutions.
In terms of localisation strategy, SKF adheres to the strategy of ‘Rooted in China, Helping Aviation’ and has been deeply cultivating the Chinese market for many years. In order to better meet the needs of the Chinese market, SKF has set up a local production line for aviation airframe bearings at its Xinchang production base, and is actively developing its aviation bearing production and testing capabilities.
Yang Jun, Vice President of SKF China, said, ‘China’s civil aviation is in a stage of rapid development, and we are full of confidence in this market. SKF will further strengthen cooperation with the local industry chain, support local innovation, and help China’s commercial aircraft flourish with advanced products and solutions, and we look forward to continuing to energise the industry’s development in the future, and guarding the clean skies with our industry colleagues.’
Looking ahead, SKF will continue to take innovation as its wing and sustainable development as its beacon, and keep launching more intelligent and clean solutions to help the development of China’s civil aviation industry, soaring together in a broader blue sky.
