What is the key problem? Multiple customers have needed a proof of concept demonstration and investigatory tests of bearing systems.
What was Xdot’s solution? To assist these clients, Xdot has leveraged our in-house test rigs to rapidly test new bearing concepts. We have been able to assist our customers in evaluating their concepts before they committed funds and personnel to a significant in-house effort.
We have partnered with an aerospace customer to test a new high-speed ball bearing assembly, a process machinery developer to evaluate magnetic backup bearings, and an aerospace customer to validate performance of a foil bearing they’d developed.
