The continental dynamic pressure oil film sliding bearing industry is still in the growth period, and there is still a lot of room for expansion in the application field of products, and the industry is expected to maintain a rapid growth trend in the future. Today, let's take a look at the company's investment logic.

In the growth period of domestic dynamic pressure oil film sliding bearings, energy power generation + industrial drive and other multi-point flowering

The continental dynamic pressure oil film sliding bearing industry is still in the growth period, and there is still a lot of room for expansion in the application field of products, and the industry is expected to maintain a rapid growth trend in the future. According to the forecast of the Prospective Industry Research Institute, the average annual compound growth rate of the market size of dynamic oil film sliding bearings in China from 2020 to 2026 will be about 13%.

The downstream demand is strong, and the energy power generation + industrial drive is flowering: the safety requirements in the field of energy power generation - nuclear power are extremely high, and they have been dependent on imports, and there is a large space for import substitution in domestic sliding bearings; 

Driven by the large-scale wind turbine, the "localization + sliding rolling" of wind power bearings is expected to accelerate

The localization rate of wind power bearings is still low. At present, the main shaft bearings and gearbox bearings in the domestic wind power industry mainly use rolling bearings, relying on imported overseas brands such as SKF, NSK, FAG, etc. The company is an authorized distributor of SKF, with the rapid growth of market demand in the field of wind power, the scale of the company's distribution of SKF rolling bearings business has been on the rise in recent years. Wind power gearbox bearings have great potential to "roll instead of slide", and the company's dynamic oil film sliding bearings are expected to benefit. Ultra-large wind turbines are an effective measure to achieve grid parity for wind power (for every 10% increase in wind turbine diameter, the power generation of the whole turbine will increase by more than 8%), and the development of super-large wind turbines has become a significant trend of wind turbines. If the wind power gearbox with a power of more than 10MW still uses rolling bearings, the excessive radial size of the bearing will lead to the increase of fatigue peeling and wear of the inner and outer rings of the bearing, raceway and ball, which will restrict the cost-effectiveness and reliability of the gearbox. In contrast, sliding bearings have the advantages of small radial size, strong bearing capacity and low cost, and can be applied to wind power main bearing gearboxes, which can significantly improve the torque density of wind power gearboxes and reduce the unit torque cost.

Nuclear power, ships and other fields supporting bearings in the forefront of the country

The company's dynamic oil film sliding bearings effectively solve the supporting bottlenecks of host customers in key areas with extreme working conditions and special environmental requirements in the fields of nuclear power, wind power, and ships, and help improve the autonomy rate of major equipment such as advanced nuclear power technology and equipment, ship electric propulsion systems, heavy-duty gas turbines and "ethylene three engines" in the mainland.

Today bring such a dynamic pressure oil film bearing faucet,

1. The Company's dynamic oil film sliding bearing products mainly focus on energy power generation, industrial drive, petrochemical industry and shipbuilding and other fields.

2. The company has the core self-developed technology of high-speed sliding shaft of dynamic pressure oil film, and has strong technical barriers.

3. The downstream fields of wind power, nuclear power, thermal power and industrial drive have strong demand, and the logic of domestic substitution is strong.
