Skf

SKF is a Swedish company producing self-aligning ball bearings. It was founded in Gothenburg by engineer Sven Wingquist in 1907. The SKF brand stands for Svenska KullagerFabriken, or "Swedish Bearing Factory". The company then began producing seals, mechatronic products and lubrication systems. Their products allow rotation for industrial machinery, aircraft engines, trams, subways, bicycles and household products.
Also in 1907, the RIV factory was founded in Italy, manufacturing ball bearings and steel balls. In the course of the 1910s, the company grew considerably and opened a second factory. Destroyed during the bombing of the Second World War, they were rebuilt in 1947. In the 1950s several other RIV production centres were opened and, in 1965, the company became part of the SKF Group, taking on the name "RIV-SKF Officine di Villar Perosa S.p.A.". RIV-SKF grew and became SKF Industrie S.p.A. in 1988.
In 1993 the wheel hub bearing 3 (HBU 3) was introduced, equipped with a sensor for use in the ABS braking system. In 1995 the CARB® toroidal roller bearing was launched and in 1999 the Explorer spherical roller bearing series was born. The innovations continued throughout the 2000s, always with the same approach that allows SKF to be among the market leaders, boasting more than one hundred production plants in 70 countries. In Italy, the company is present with three companies: SKF Industrie S.p.A., which specialises in the production and sale of rolling bearings, RFT S.p.A., which produces rubber and metal seals and gaskets, and SKF Metal Stamping S.r.l., which deals with steel strip stamping.
Internationally recognised for its quality and technological solutions, SKF pays particular attention to the sustainability of its production. As early as 1997, the brand was awarded ISO 14001 certification for environmental protection, and today it continues its efforts to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.
