GENERAL MANAGERS MESSAGE

FACTORY

Buna Ziua I started my career in the Romanian bearings Industry in the year 1971 at Rulmentul Brasov in the city of Brasov, Romania. Since 1973, I have been part of Rulmenti Alexandria which have been the pillars of my experience and knowledge of the Romanian bearing Industry. My career at Rulmenti Alexandria started in the production department and until Privatization I was the General Manager. During my time I have under seen technological development at the Alexandria factory with the help of Koyo Japan. I was also part of the successful privatization of Rulmenti Alexandria which is now SC Koyo Romania. I remained as Vice President and Advisor at SC Koyo Romania until 2006. It was already known to me that production of URB Brand Ball and Tapered Roller bearings was going to stop in the near future and hence together with my colleagues, partners and associates from the Romanian bearings industry, we conceived of developing a progressive bearings production model to keep alive our proud Romanian bearings history and tradition of over 50 Years. We established Ulpia Rulmenti Bucuresti URB SRL Romania in 2007. The Ulpia Rulmenti Bucuresti U.R.B. Trademark is registered with the State Ofces of Inventions and Trademarks Authorities (OSIM). Our pioneer production model is based on a vertically integrated system, from leading-edge Research and Development, raw Material procurement, extreme operational exibility, short delivery time and producing top quality bearings typical of a consistent premium-class bearing source. Ulpia Rulmenti has reinvented the art of bearings production by matching the worlds latest production technologies while at the same time keeping Romanias long standing bearing production heritage alive. We have created a production model which will be a benchmark not only for bearings producers in Romania but also worldwide. The world today consists of an unprecedented demand for top quality, precision engineered, extremely reliable bearings matched with seamless after sales service. Ulpia Rulmenti uses the best quality of raw materials and consumables while applying precision production processes to provide a perfect solution for those who are looking for top quality Romanian bearings in conformance to the latest international bearings quality standards. We are proud to say that we are Romanias First fully integrated supplier of complete range of Ball and Tapered Roller bearings under one factory. From 2012,we have introduced full range of Spherical Roller Bearings. We will not stop here and in future incorporate additional ranges of bearings under the U.R.B. Brand as per our customers requirements and demands. I thank you for your support and cooperation and look forward to working with you for a long term mutually successful business p partnership. Welcome to Ulpia Rulmenti.

MAINTENANCE

6. BEARINGS LUBRICATION Safe operating and long rating life of bearings depends on the lubricant type and quality and on the lubrication method. Bearing Lubricants are used for certain purposes such as a. To reduce friction between the rolling elements and raceway of inner and outer ring during operation b. To distribute heat uniformly in contact areas and to remove it outside through lubricant circulation. c. To reduce noise in bearing within certain limits d. To evacuate heat produced during operation; e. To Ensure Anticorrosive protection of bearings The lubrication method used for bearing is classied in two categories: oil lubrication and grease lubrication. a. OIL LUBRICATION Oil lubrication is recommended for bearing operating at high rotational speed and for high temperatures, and is also effective in reducing bearing vibration and noise. We are using Castrol Clean S-80 oil for lubrication and Castrol Safecoat 66 for anti-rust preservation from Germany. b. GREASE LUBRICATION Grease lubrication is widely applied due to easy maintenance during operation. There are two method for lubrication: closed lubrication (bearing with shields/seals, lled with grease for life) and feeding method, in which bearing and housing is lled with proper amount of grease and relled at regular intervals. Amount for grease should be, generally 30-40% of inside volume. Relling method: for relling the same brand of grease as initial lling shall be use. Relling interval shall be according to equipment manufacturer recommendation. 7. BEARINGS HANDLING 1. General Instruction Due to high precision of bearings, careful handling is needed in order to avoid damaging. - Keep bearing and operating environment clean; - Handle carefully to avoid damaging components; - Use proper tools for handling; - Keep bearing protected from humidity, to avoid rust; operators should wear gloves when handling bearings; - Follow bearing operating standard established by equipment manufacture. 2. Storage of bearings. - Keep bearing is original package; this guarantees the bearing quality as long as is not damaged; - Store bearing is closed spaces; when storage is made for longer period, is recommended to have a constant temperature, around 20 C and humidity less than65%. - Avoid storage in places exposed directly to sun rays or placing bearings against cold walls or near heating bodies. 3. Bearing Mounting a. Before mounting, clean up to the shaft and the housing and check whether they aws or burrs; b. Remove completely lapping agents, casting sand or chips from inside the housing; c. Check the dimensional, form and nish condition accuracy for the shaft and housing; d. Apply a thin lm of machine oil on tting surface, before mounting; e. Remove bearing from their original package just before mounting; rust preservative oil witch cover the bearing is fully compatible with lubricants, and is no need to clean in up; however, if bearing is used for measuring instrument or at high rotational speed, it is recommended to remove the rust preventive oil with a clean detergent, just before mounting. f. Mounting procedure and specic dies, recommended by original equipment manufacturer, shall be used, in order to avoid bearing damaging due to heavy load applied for mounting. g. After mounting make a manual run test; if no abnormalities are observed, such as knocking, excessive torque. Un-smooth rotation, make a trial operation by using power source and check and conrm running without abnormal noise, vibrations increase speed up to max designed speed. h. If some of listed abnormalities are found during manual or power test, stop operation immediately and perform inspection for defects.

PRODUCTION

HISTORY OF ROMANIAN BEARINGS INDUSTRY

1949 Bearings Production was originally founded in the

year 1949 in Rulmentul Brasov which is honored as the cradle of the Romanian bearing industry.

1949-1959 Under the Central administration of The

Industrial Head Ofce of Bearings and Assembling Components of Romania (CIROA) a total of six subsidiary units were to be developed to create the entire bearing industry of Romania

1961 URB Trademark was registered by the central

administration which became the valid common trademark currently being used by all the bearings manufacturers in Romania.

1970 Licensing Agreement with Koyo -Japan for Technology Know how and machinery supply to Rulmenti Alexandria.

1974 Production began at Rulmenti Alexandria 1995-1998 Further agreement for Production Modernization with the help of Koyo - Japan undertaken with a view for Privitazation.

1998 Privatization from Rulmenti Alexandria to form SC

Koyo Romania

2006 Closure of S.C. Rulmentul S.A. Brasov 2007 Establishment of Ulpia Rulmenti Bucuresti URB SRL 2009 Koyo Romania stops production of URB bearings 2010 Production begins at Ulpia Rulme Rulmenti.
