SKF involved in solar aircraft project

 Solar has been a focus of modern society concerns, aircraft manufacturers now also try to drive solar energy as aircraft fuel to run, Sweden's SKF Group was the news, actively participate in the construction of solar aircraft project, and efforts to develop suitable solar-powered aircraft bearings and SKF SKF energy efficient solutions. We follow SKF SKF Roller bearing distributor in China to understand the involvement of the solar aircraft project.
 Solar aircraft project is the use of advanced technology and light composite materials, the solar energy as a renewable resource driven, allowing the aircraft to reduce energy consumption, SKF involved in providing solar aircraft project is mainly used for propeller-driven aircraft SKF hybrid deep groove ball bearings, SKF and the use of abundant solar power system knowledge to help build a simulation of solar aircraft project aircraft environment.
 SKF to develop energy-efficient solar-powered aircraft project, SKF bearings and SKF energy efficient solutions that can effectively make this project implementation, expected in 2013 completed the first solar-powered aircraft flight test work Sweden SKF Bearing Group President and CEO Tom Johnstone said: "Shanghai Expo theme with SKF sustainability strategy pursued over the years coincide in the environment, we have been committed to reducing the company's business on the environment impact, focusing on research and development to help customers reduce energy consumption of products and solutions for our Expo to build a good platform for SKF opportunity to work with many local and international customers face to face communication, display our newly developed products and SKF bearings solution.
