NBC Bearings, the flagship brand of National Engineering
Industries Ltd. (NEI), a CKA Birla Group company, has launched its new Low
Noise, Low Vibration Electric Motor Quality (EMQ) Bearings at Mogen Expo, Bengaluru.
The product was unveiled by Dr G M Ramachandran, Chief
Executive Officer, LEDL, and Mr. Sachin Singh Kushwaha, Vice President,
Quality, Ather, marking an advancement in bearing technology for electric
motor, electric vehicle and precision equipment industries.
Designed for noise-sensitive applications, the new EMQ
bearing range enables machines to operate with lower vibration and sound
levels. Engineered with optimised internal geometry, precision-finished
raceways and advanced low-noise lubrication, the bearings deliver stable,
smooth and long-lasting performance. Under standard test conditions, the EMQ
range has demonstrated a significant reduction in noise and vibration, helping
improve motor efficiency, operating comfort and overall equipment reliability.
As electric motors, EVs, home appliances and precision
industrial equipment continue to evolve, manufacturers are facing increasing
pressure to reduce operational noise and vibration without compromising speed,
durability or efficiency. Conventional bearings often struggle to meet
demanding NVH requirements, resulting in higher vibration, increased wear,
reduced service life and greater maintenance costs.
The transition towards electrification and automation has
made low noise and low vibration performance a critical engineering
requirement, driving demand for bearings designed for next-generation
applications.
Rajesh Premchandran, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, NBC
Bearings, said, “The electric motor industry has long faced a critical engineering
challenge: delivering higher speeds and greater efficiency while meeting the
growing demand for quieter and smoother operation. NBC Bearings’ EMQ bearings
are designed to address this challenge at its source. Engineered with optimised internal geometry, superior
surface finishes and advanced low-noise lubrication, EMQ bearings significantly
reduce noise and vibration at the raceway level, enhancing motor performance
without compromising efficiency. Our EMQ bearings have demonstrated a significant reduction
in noise and vibration, enabling manufacturers to meet increasingly stringent
NVH requirements while enhancing product quality and user experience. They
represent a significant advancement for electric motor manufacturers by
delivering quieter operation without sacrificing speed, service life or
reliability, while addressing one of the industry’s most persistent engineering
challenges.”
