5th International FVA-Conference

The Expert Forum for Bearings –
Rolling and Plain Bearings!

25 - 26 June, 2024 in Würzburg, Germany

You have expertise in the field of rolling bearings and would like to present it to the community?
Come to BEARING WORLD Conference, share your work and discuss the latest trends. 

Submission deadline: 30 October, 2023

In technology, wherever there is movement, rolling ele­ment and plain bearings are essential. Bearings transmit operating forces bet­ween moving machine components – and therefore play a crucial role in the functionality, efficiency, and service life of the overall machine or system.

The stresses on rolling bearings in particular are very high, and will continue to increase in the future. As will expectations of reliability. Therefore, appropriate bearing selection and dimensioning as well as the optimal design of the bearing environment are indispensable. This requires constant growth in expertise based on practical expe­rience and scientific knowledge.                 

Contribute to the program by providing your knowledge – and take advantage of the opportunity to share information! We look forward to receiving your proposals.
