This year’s Bearing World exhibition took place for the first time as a virtual event from October 19-23 2020. Virtual event organizer Forschungsvereinigung Antriebstechnik e.V. (FVA) provided a platform of exchange focusing on bearing types and all the components involved. Klingelnberg presented as a sponsoring partner with a virtual exhibition concept that combined various forms of digital content and live chats with Klingelnberg experts.

The event host counted more than 1,100 participants in total. Top speakers from the roller bearing and applied industry and leading research institutions presented talks on a broad range of topics. Interested attendees also had the opportunity to get to know the various companies on a virtual tour of the exhibition. The online information offering included product videos and other ways to download detailed documentation, among many other things. Throughout the five-day event, Klingelnberg experts in roller bearing measurement technology – Dr. Christof Gorgels (head of precision measuring centers product line), Holger Haybach (product management, precision measuring centers), and Stefan Staab (business development) – were on hand for live chats.

“Bearing World is a fantastic platform for showcasing our expertise in the area of bearing measurement technology and our Klingelnberg Done-in-One measurement solutions,” noted Staab in summarizing the event. “We are already looking forward to continuing our dialog with event attendees.”
