Pillow blocks for planting machineEnd of April we visited a customer in Belgium who is a manufacturer of agricultural machines. Baekelandt Jan & Baekelandt Konstruktie BVBA produces machines to plant, wash, pack and transport all kinds of vegetables. This varies from cauliflower, leek, courgettes, celery, strawberries and many other vegetables.
They mount our UCP206 P6V2 with solid base to this planter. This is a solidly built machine with a long service life. By using high-quality QBS pillow blocks in the vital parts, maintenance is kept to a minimum. QBS bearings and bearing units are an important part of this. Beauty comes in all sizes
Maintenance at water treatment plantThis summer, maintenance is planned for the water treatment plant at Dunea in the province of South Holland (The Netherlands). Together with an installation company, Q-Bearings was asked to make an inventory of the bearings that needed to be replaced. These are mainly located in the screw conveyors which move residue and dry bulk products. This mainly concerns ball bearings, spherical roller bearings and thrust bearings in various sizes. Do you also need advice to replace your old bearings? We are happy to make a non-binding offer for you. Dunea produces and supplies drinking water to more than 1 million customers in the province of South Holland. Drinking water is obtained from dune water, a combination of river water and precipitation. This is done in a unique method, watch the video here.
Green, greener, greenestWe love green, because AVR machines are also equipped with bearings from Q-Bearings. For the cultivation of potatoes and other tuber crops, there are numerous machines for planting, harvesting or storing them. Agricultural machines like these are often exposed to harsh conditions such as mud, rain and dust. There are also long periods of inactivity followed by intensive periods of work. For this Q-Bearings supplies a reliable and complete range of bearings.

The 6 brass cage spherical roller bearings will be used in bulk grabs. They are ideal for applications that require a high radial load carrying capacity and where misalignment must be compensated. Our product specialist Koen is happy to advise you on choosing the right bearing for your application. Don’t hesitate sending us your inquiries at martine@q-bearings.com or via the contactform. New colleague: Martine De VosOn February 1st, Martine De Vos joined the Q-Bearings team. She will be fully occupied with internal sales handling such as quotations and orders. Martine is not quite a stranger to the business, as she has over 32 years of experience in the bearing industry.
“I think it's such a special and interesting matter that I dare to believe 'For once in the bearing business, always in the bearing business'. I also ran my own sandwich store for a few years, but have always returned to the bearings. It is only a small part of cranes, cars, grabs or windmills, but so crucial and indispensable – that fascinates me” she says. After 14 years working for her previous employer, Martine decided it was time for a new challenge. “I know Alex and Koen for a long time and it just feels good to be able to work with them again and to make Q-Bearings a success together. We are very flexible in the brands we offer and have a lot of know-how plus a good service. The customers also know us – the 3 musketeers are back together: sales – technology – customer service – the complete package needed for a success story in the bearing business.” You can reach Martine by email or via our contact form. |
