SKF Automotive Division has introduced the SKF Wheel End Monitor, which the company said is designed to detect early stage wheel bearing damage in heavy-duty trucks, trailers, buses and other commercial vehicles. The new device, which is mounted on the outboard side of a commercial vehicle's wheel, monitors vibration changes and alerts the driver through a flashing red warning signal of an impending bearing failure. When the system detects a defect, the vehicle is then brought in for immediate inspection and repair. This advanced detection increases safety by avoiding collateral damage to adjacent wheel end components, SKF said.
