Market Intelligence Study on the Ball and Roller Bearings Market

May 9, 2017

With developing countries focusing more on manufacturing efficient high-speed trains, the top industry players in the railway power transmission bearing market have started focusing more on developing durable insulated bearings, which are used in high-speed trains. In 2015, the total number of locomotives, electric multiple units (EMUs), Diesel Electric Multiple Units (DMUs), and Diesel–Electric Multiple Unit (DEMUs) manufactured was about 1,584 units in North America and 4,9561 units in Europe. This subsequently resulted in the consumption of one million bearings in North America and Europe alone. It has also been noted that the application of roller bearings in traction motors and reductors is relatively high compared to ball bearings. Consequently, the demand for roller bearings is higher than that of ball bearings in the power and transmission segment for railway vehicles. However, at present, insulated bearings are being replaced by hybrid bearings as they are made of ceramic material and have a longer operating life compared to other bearings.
