Researchers at a leading university have developed a new bearing technology that could revolutionize manufacturing processes in a variety of industries. The technology uses a novel material combination and manufacturing process to create bearings that offer improved performance, durability, and reliability.

Plain Bearings: Also known as bushings or sleeve bearings, plain bearings consist of a simple cylindrical design without rolling elements. They rely on a sliding motion to reduce friction and are often used in low-speed, high-load applications such as in agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and industrial machinery. Plain bearings are valued for their ability to handle heavy loads and operate in harsh environments.
