Stratalign Limited provides industry throughout New Zealand with solutions to all lifting, hoisting and material handling challenges. One of those solutions is the Stratalign workstation gantry light crane system which is ideally suited for use in all industrial, processing and manufacturing environments. These gantries improve productivity in the workplace as they handle loads up to 2,000kg, while the heavy crane systems go through to 10,000kgs. This light-weight gantry system is durable and because of its closed profile construction, the system is prevented from being exposed to dust or particle build-up. Finishes in both powder coating and galvanising are available making them durable for any environment. Stratalign’s wide range of freestanding or wall mounted jib cranes also use the same unique track system to provide a friction free movement of the trolley. Stratalign also stocks Nitchi, San-Ei and Balken electric and air chain hoists.

An axial lubrication groove in the upper section of the housing ensures optimum lubricant supply for bearings in every bearing position (for example, using FAG CONCEPT 8 compact lubrication system for grease and oil). The design also integrates good anti-corrosion characteristics and reduced cleaning requirements, due to inclined run-off areas as well as a projecting upper housing section. “The focus during development of the new SNS housing was on compliance with customer and application-specific requirements,” says Mr Grosvenor. “Criteria such as the bolt-on Taconite seal, single branded solution of bearing, housing and sleeve, increasing plant reliability, robustness and improved condition monitoring played a major role.” To enable improved condition monitoring of the bearings, connections are now provided on both sides of the housing as standard for Schaeffler’s FAG SmartCheck condition monitoring device. However, if these two connections are not accessible, a centre mark in the upper section of the housing indicates the optimum mounting position for condition monitoring. Schaeffler can also supply the housing with connections for its new Concept 8 automatic lubrication system. FAG Plummer Block Housings are suitable for a wide variety of spherical roller bearings, including the latest FAG split spherical roller bearings, which are typically applied on worm, bucket and belt conveying equipment, materials processing plant, motors, bucket wheel excavators and reclaimers, elevators, winches and sheaves, mixing and stirring plant, mills and crushers, sintering plant, drum type kilns, fans and ventilators, dust extraction plant, drive and transmission shafts, ventilation plant, rolling mills, ships and paper machinery, and primary product and food and beverage processing. Also, due to the introduction of new, industrystandard mounting arrangements and dimensions, the housing can be installed as a direct replacement (retrofitted) for a wide variety of conventional plummer block housings. The FAG brand SNS Plummer Block Housing is designed to reduce the total cost of ownership of industrial machinery widely used in Australia and New Zealand, where it is supported by longestablished Schaeffler operations whose local expertise complements the company’s global leadership. FURTHER HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SNS HOUSING INCLUDE: • 100% interchangeable with conventional solutions • Easy and precise mounting due to locating surfaces that are reworked by machine and alignment marks • Predefined mounting positions for condition monitoring technology (for example, FAG SmartCheck for vibration diagnosis in real time) • Grease outlet holes supplied as standard to simplify maintenance • Suitable for standard un-split spherical roller size range 115mm to 530mm, 4-7/16” to 19 ½”, including Schaeffler’s premium performance X-life class of spherical roller bearings • Also suitable for Schaeffler’s unique easily installed FAG split spherical roller bearing, size range 150mm up to 410mm, 5-15/16” to 16” • Plummer block housings of series SNS are suitable for spherical roller bearing series 222, 223, 230, 231, 232 and 240.
