Aircraft find usage from commercial flights to cargo transport, which ensures the flow of goods around the world, to special flights within the healthcare, military or research and development sectors.
Their flawless functionality must be ensured in every respect. It is bearings that are one of the important components that keep all moving parts of the engine running reliably, smoothly and efficiently.
AKE bearings are designed and manufactured to handle extreme temperature changes, pressures and speeds typical for the aircraft industry. With our bearings, aircraft manufacturers around the world can be confident that their machines will perform as they have to, no matter what conditions they are deployed in.
You will see the high quality of AKE bearings both in the development of prototype bearings for customised aircraft as well as in the production of smaller or larger series. Whether it is a new technology or you are looking for an alternative bearing supplier to ensure your dual-sourcing, we at AKE guarantee an individual approach and the highest European quality.
The fundamental key characteristic of bearings in the aviation industry is that they have the same and stable operating capability under changing in-flight conditions such as temperature, rotational speed and load. The effect is an extended bearing lifetime.
In aircraft, AKE bearings must withstand extreme thermal loads and sudden temperature changes from the environment or from their own operation.
The design and special materials such as the steel 52100, AMS6440, AMS6444, HSS M50, HSS M50 Nil predestine AKE bearings to cope with the changing high speed range as well as high static and dynamic loads caused by gravity and impacts during take-off,and landing, as well as manoeuvring of the aircraft during flight.
In airspace, every ounce counts. That is why we develop AKE aircraft bearings to be lightweight while retaining properties such as durability, precision, speed and load capacity.
