Timken’s Paper Industry Bearing Training program helps paper mill and roll shop operators reduce downtime and improve machine performance. A combined schedule of in-class and hands-on training covers every phase of bearing performance in the mill – from pulp to finish.

Topics include: 

• Bearing fundamentals
• Metallurgy
• Installation and removal
• Bearing damage analysis
• Bearing repair
• Condition monitoring

Held at Timken’s Tyger River facility in Union, South Carolina, this training equips mill operators to better understand how spherical and other types of bearings are manufactured, removed, installed, maintained, lubricated and repaired. This two-day program is facilitated by Timken’s team of paper industry engineers and metallurgists.
