Marine

The marine industry is one of the most critical in the world, linking continents in trade, enabling commercial fishing and creating a wonderful place for recreation. The marine industry however is facing an ongoing increase in regulation and scrutiny on emissions, discharge and lubrications. Marine insurers are demanding high standards and increased maintenance. Applications that have been normally lubricated via grease or oil are being redesigned to accommodate environmentally acceptable lubricants. These changes are creating increased challenges in creating and sourcing acceptable products and compatibility with existing designs.

Kormax brings the best options with a range of bearing solutions to perform in a wide variety of conditions and applications. These include Composites, Naval Bronze, Brass and Polymers. We have solutions for water lubricated bearings to replace rubber lined bearings, high load steering components and wear pads in transmission systems. We work with mariners to select the best solution for every application that will comply with standards, perform well and achieve business goals.

Deliver

A production plan is prepared ensuring production capacity and quality control are maintained to standard. The Supply chain system is set up to ensure all delivery requirements are achieved. Manufacturing commences and delivery satisfaction is measured.

02

Create

The create stage involves conceptual design then detailed design. At conceptual design our application engineers open their minds to a wide range of creative solutions. Through brainstorming and internal consultation we model and analyze a number of ingenuitive options. Options are presented and through rationalization we assist in selecting the best design strategy. Detailed design & modelling is then performed to ensure the product is production ready.
