Enabling superior understanding of bearing behavior for informed, independent bearing design and selection
Romax Spin provides bearing designers and application engineers with the insight to design and select bearings for optimum performance and durability as part of a whole system model. The benefits of using Romax Spin include:
Benefits And Features
Cutting-edge rolling element bearing analysis as part of a full electromechanical system.
Improved collaboration
Access more than 60,000 bearings from SKF, Schaeffler, Timken, JTEKT, and Nachi, or model fully customizable bearings and specify assembly and operating properties.
Application optimization
Accurately predict element and raceway stresses, rib contact, edge stress, roller contact analysis, and contact truncation, considering full system deflection, load analysis, and bearing misalignments.
Unrivaled insight
Time-domain simulation to analyze dynamic behavior and avoid novel failure modes such as skidding.

Frequently Asked Questions
We have low-cost FEA internal tools for advanced analysis. What else would Spin offer us?
Spin is a commercial tool with a proven track record, superior usability, reliable support, and updates. It is much faster and easier to use than FEA and is much more scalable and efficient than internal tools and general-purpose FEA.
We rely on our suppliers for advanced bearing analysis, and they won’t share their detailed bearing data with us anyway.
Bearings are critical for the operation of rotating machinery, and it’s important to have in-house analysis capabilities to make sound engineering decisions and supplier choices. Spin allows suppliers to share data securely using proprietary bearing catalogs so that analyses take into account all relevant details while protecting the creator's IP.
