Pumps & Compressors

VAFEM bearing in Pumps & Compressors

Pumps are used in all kinds of industries around the world:

1. chemicals

2. papermaking

3. irrigation

4. foods


Compressors are used for a wide variety of applications:

1. factory equipment

2. air supply equipment for civil engineering and construction projects

3. home and office air conditioning

4. refrigerators and cold storage warehouses

This demonstrates just how essential pumps and compressors are to industry. VAFEM supplies bearings that support the most important mechanism of these pumps and compressors, that of “rotation.” In this way, the company lends support to every field of industry.

Pumps and compressors should:

1. be environmentally friendly

2. be highly reliable

3. consume minimal energy

4. have low maintenance costs

Needless to say, VAFEM aims for the most appropriate designs and enhanced product quality. The company supplies many types of bearings that offer long operating life, high load capacity and high reliability. The goal is low energy consumption for an environmentally friendly approach and low maintenance costs.

Always bearing in mind environmental issues, VAFEM will continue to concentrate its comprehensive strengths on the development for future generations of pump and compressor bearings that consume even less energy and that have longer working lives.


Our Products For The Pumps & Compressors Industry: Performance, Reliability, Precision


Angular contact bearing

Angular contact ball bearings are designed to support high radial-axial loads at high speeds. VAFEM angular contact bearings are manufactured with the highest quality materials for maximum durability and life cycle. Advanced technology helps ensure tight tolerances (even at high speeds), quiet operation, and minimal friction and wear. Therefore, TFL bearings are ideal for high-performance applications in various pump applications.


Cylindrical Roller Bearings

VAFEM cylindrical roller bearings are ideal for high speed, high temperature, and high load capacity (mainly radial), designed to minimize friction and improve performance and life cycle. They have wide bearing tolerances and single and double row configurations. Available cage materials include steel plate (pressed cage, Z-shaped), copper alloy cut cage, pin cage, and synthetic resin molded cage, which is very suitable for various pump applications.


Double row angular contact bearings

Double row angular contact bearings support radial and bidirectional axial loads but generally have a lower load capacity than two single row angular contact bearings. However, they have a longer service life, mainly when used under axial load conditions. VAFEM double row angular contact bearings are durable, optimized to reduce friction and increase tolerances, and are commonly used in various pump applications.


Hybrid ceramic ball bearings

VAFEM hybrid ceramic ball bearings are designed to maximize the advantages of ceramic balls and steel bearing structures to isolate and eliminate the risk of galvanic corrosion, thereby achieving ultimate durability, life cycle, and performance. In most applications, hybrid ceramic bearings have a longer service life than all-steel bearings. They also generate less vibration than all-steel bearings. This reduces noise levels during operation and provides significant design advantages for compressor and pump applications.


Clutch bearing

The magnetic clutch bearing is a double angular contact ball bearing with an outer ring and an inner ring. VAFEM magnetic clutch bearings are precisely designed and manufactured using advanced materials and technology. This allows them to withstand high speeds and extreme temperatures while ensuring maximum performance and durability in pump applications.


Spherical roller bearing

Spherical roller bearings are designed to work under the harshest conditions. VAFEM spherical roller bearings are designed to maximize the ability of spherical roller bearings to support high loads, compensate for severe shaft misalignment, absorb heavy shocks, and withstand high temperatures. VAFEM spherical roller bearings comply with ISO 15 standards and can be used in pumps for various industries and applications.


Single row deep groove ball bearing

Single row deep groove bearings are the most commonly used type of roller bearings in the world. Versatility and performance are some of their most attractive features. VAFEM single row deep groove ball bearings maximize these functions and achieve excellent performance at very high speeds. They provide support for significant radial loads and moderate axial loads (in both directions). The advanced design of VAFEM single row deep groove bearings also makes them very quiet during operation, very durable, and almost maintenance-free in most pump applications.


Tapered Roller Bearings

Tapered bearings are equipped with truncated cone rollers, divided into three types: slight cone angle, medium cone angle, and large cone angle—the greater the contact angle, the greater the axial bearing capacity. VAFEM tapered roller bearings are used in various applications and are designed to absorb forces and maintain shaft alignment. They are designed to operate quietly and accurately, minimize friction, perform well at high speeds, and provide a long service life in pump applications.
