Scan 2D barcodes printed on NSK bearing boxes to assess bearing authenticity and immediately access inspection reports. The app also enables easier factory automation and IT-based plant management. CSV and PDF export of key information empowers customers to track usage history, improve product traceability, and even simplify bearing selection. *Note: Only certain models of precision bearings are currently supported (Bearings with an “N” marked beside the 2D barcode on the box). Features 1. Access key bearing data online Access inspection report data for each individual bearing. Data typically includes a unique identification number, precise dimensions, runout, and more. The data can be exported in CSV and PDF formats, enabling plants to improve product traceability and implement automated, IT-based plant management. 2. Assess product authenticity The app checks 2D barcodes against the NSK database, and provides information that can help determine if a product is genuine. The number of accesses from each unique 2D barcode is tracked and displayed, allowing customers to infer product authenticity. 3. Quicker and easier ordering Scan an NSK 2D barcode to display the bearing number for quick and easy ordering from local distributors and sales offices. 4. NSK sales office and distributor locator Find NSK products near your location. 5. Other services Access online tools from the NSK website.

This App can analyze the vibration of equipment through acceleration data received wirelessly, and perform OA and FFT analysis, and displays the analysis result on the tablet screen. The Bearing damage can be identified using the bearing frequencies estimated from the FFT analysis. Bearing replacement recommendations can be managed by entering threshold values for the bearing vibration levels. In OA analysis, normal or abnormal results can be displayed by setting threshold values for acceleration, velocity, and displacement. In addition, equipment / component condition is judged based on ISO 10816 vibration evaluation criteria. You can select NTN bearings from the preset bearing list registered in the app, and create multiple measurement points with the preset rotational speed and thresholds. For non-NTN bearings, you can create an original bearing list by entering the bearing internal specifications or bearing vibration frequencies. Data storage and history management are available, and the change over time of vibration measurement results can be viewed in a line graph. Data that can be managed in history is OA, FFT, and time waveform. Saved measurement data can be imported from a tablet to a user’s computer and edited with a spreadsheet.
