Precision bearings - Bearings and bearings housing INA
With high running accuracy, high-speed performance, and exceptional system durability, spindle bearings are ideal for machine tools and other precision applications such as high-speed finishing stands for steel wire, machining centers, motors and transmissions in racing cars, as well as innovative fluid processing applications. These bearings also minimize noise, vibration, and heat generation.
INA was founded in Herzogenaurach, Germany in 1946. The company started out manufacturing handcarts, but also invented the caged needle bearing, leading to a deeper focus on precision products and helping the company develop into bearing manufacturing. For decades, INA has been synonymous with precision quality, in-depth knowledge and manufacturing expertise. Today, INA products are used in industry, with new solutions being developed daily. In 2001 INA bought FAG and the name of the combined company is Schaeffler Group. The company invests heavily in development and has over 24,000 active patents and patent applications. There are over 2,300 new patent applications every year, making it the second most innovative company in Germany according to the German Patent Office.
