Solutions for Every Machine Type
Whether your operation is involved in hauling, mineral processing or cement making, SKF has solutions for, and experience in, just about every machine type and application condition.
This page covers three SKF product families for aggregate plants: conveyor pulley bearing housings, horizontal vibrating screen bearings, and condition monitoring systems.
The Reality of Cement and Aggregates Operations
Dust, shock loads, and hard-to-access equipment put rotating assets under constant pressure. These are the conditions behind the SKF solutions on this page.
Reactive work and lubrication challenges on busy assets.
Rotating equipment faults can be difficult to detect early.
Teams must maintain more equipment with fewer skilled people.
Plants need to extend service life while meeting production demands.
01 / Conveyor pulley bearing housings
SKF SAVD Conveyor Pulley Bearing Housings
Coming soon
Compact housing design for demanding conveyor applications.
Developed from SKF experience with SDVD housings in Australia's mining sector, the SAVD series brings an inch-size design to conveyor pulleys in mining, minerals processing, and bulk materials handling.
Compact fitReduced width, lower height, and a recessed seal carrier support tight pulley layouts.
Contamination controlThe TKV taconite seal is designed for harsh, contaminated environments.
Maintenance accessA bolt-on end cover supports grease sampling and visual inspection without removing the housing.
Monitoring readySpot-faced locations accommodate vibration sensors in axial and horizontal planes.
Bearing and service fitDesigned for 222xx and 231xx series bearings. Applicable sizes allow access for a hydraulic nut to support in-situ bearing changes with minimal pulley lift.
02 / Horizontal vibrating screen bearings
SKF Horizontal Vibrating Screen Bearings
Coming soon
Purpose-built for eccentric and orbital loading in three-shaft horizontal screens.
These application-specific spherical roller bearings pair a roller-retaining machined brass cage with SKF Explorer-class materials and geometry.
Screen dynamicsDesigned around eccentric and orbital loading.
Cage constructionHeavy-duty machined brass cage with roller-retaining design.
Roller guidanceFlangeless inner ring and P5 running accuracy.
Material designSKF Explorer-class materials and optimized internal geometry.
03 / Condition monitoring
SKF Condition Monitoring Solutions
Explore handheld checks, portable analysis, wireless sensors and gateways, or wired online monitoring for rotating assets across the plant.
Machine health insight at every level
SKF offers ways to collect vibration and temperature data, identify developing problems, and plan maintenance on hard-to-access equipment.
QuickCollectHandheld vibration and temperature checks.
Microlog dBXPortable route-based collection and analysis.
IMx-1Wireless, automated monitoring.
MultilogWired online monitoring for critical assets.
Portable analyzer
SKF Microlog Analyzer dBX
Microlog dBX collects and analyzes vibration measurements on rotating machinery. It works as a standalone analyzer or with SKF monitoring software for route management and data review.
Field analysis10.1-inch touchscreen and on-device analysis.
CollectionFour channels and tachometer input.
ProtectionIP65-rated enclosure.
ModelsStandard, extended, and hazardous-area options.
Wireless monitoring / Sensor
SKF IMx-1 Wireless Sensor
The IMx-1 sensor collects vibration and temperature data from balance-of-plant assets, helping teams check machine condition more frequently without a routine walk-around to every measurement point.
Machine dataVibration, temperature, and SKF Acceleration Enveloping.
CollectionConfigurable measurement frequency and alarms.
ProtectionIP69K protection against water and dust ingress.
VariantsA hazardous-area sensor option is available.
Wireless monitoring / Gateway
SKF IMx-1 Gateway
The gateway connects the IMx-1 wireless monitoring system with SKF software so teams can review collected machine health data and receive alerts.
System roleReceives data from IMx-1 sensors for automated monitoring.
ConnectivityEthernet/PoE, Wi-Fi, or cellular connection options.
NotificationsSupports email and text alerts through the monitoring system.
VariantsA hazardous-area gateway option is listed in the range.
Wired online system
SKF Multilog IMx-8 and IMx-16
Multilog gathers vibration, temperature, and speed data to support early fault detection and planned maintenance on critical rotating assets.
Channels8 or 16 analog, plus 2 or 4 digital channels.
Continuous dataSimultaneous measurements and local buffering.
Bearing insightSKF enveloping filters for fault detection.
ModelsIMx-8, IMx-8Plus, IMx-16, and IMx-16Plus.
