About 370 jobs have been cut at Husky Energy Inc. this year with most of the reductions coming in a major round of layoffs in October, CEO Rob Peabody revealed on a conference call Monday to discuss the company’s guidance for 2020 and 2021. The Calgary-based company had refused previously to say how many workers were affected by jo
A retired worker with the Toronto Transit Commission has launched a court case against the agency, alleging it violated the province’s Environmental Protection Act by allowing harmful contaminants into the city’s subway system. Thomas Donnelly filed a private prosecution this week claiming the TTC permitted the discharge of tiny pa
Rittal Systems Ltd., Canada was awarded the Affiliated Distributors (AD) Supplier of the Year Marketing Excellence Award for 2019. “We are pleased to award Rittal with the Supplier of the Year, Marketing Excellence Award as their innovative marketing programs have made a huge overall impact on the sales and
System deflection takes misalignment into account and solves Force = Stiffness x Deflection equation for all components and connections. Misalignment in MASTA is defined in the transverse plane as a displacement along the line of action (where the gears are in mesh during rotation). Main outputs include: component d
All major manufacturers of 3-phase AC induction motors offer "inverter-duty" or "inverter-readyâ models, but while these motors have inverter-rated insulation to protect the windings, the bearings--their most vulnerable parts--are too often ignored.
Richard (RJ) Seguin, CBS and technical sales representative at AMI Bearings, explains how his bearing expertise tripled the life of a customerâ™s bearings.
Good machinery can last a lifetime. But, replacement parts for older equipment may be near impossible to find. So, what do you do when you’re looking to replace hard-to-find bearings and related parts for older machines? Finding obsolete or hard-to-find-bearings and related parts is more advanced than ever before with today’s

Until now the estimation of rolling bearing life has been based on engineering models that consider an equivalent stress, originated beneath the contact surface, that is applied to the stressed volume of the rolling contact. Through the years, fatigue surfaceâ“originated failures, resulting from reduced lubrication or contamination, hav
America suffers $4.4 billion in losses due to earthquakes every year. While that's a drop in the bucket for our $16 trillion plus GDP, it's still a substantial amount of money, and some people are working to lessen those losses. One group is Earthquake Protection Systems (EPS), a company that is designing bearings to better prote
The SKF Generalized Bearing Life Model is (GBLM) an innovative new bearing rating life model that is designed to help engineers calculate bearing rating life in a more realistic manner. The new model is a major step forward for the industry and will play an important role in enabling OEMs and end users to better match bearings and applic
