The first set of the third-generation medical CT bearings came off the assembly line successfully

After 3 years’ of research by LYC’s R&D team LYC has developed the first set of the third-generation medical CT bearings in China.

After nearly 10 months bench testing the bearing passed the user acceptance and officially placed this design into small batch production. The product has been developed for the world’s largest CT medical equipment supplier.

This project was listed in their research plan that established a professional R & D team to carry out their scientific research. There was much to take into account with the products special working conditions and characteristics during the development process the R & D team solved many processing problems from similar products within the international market. LYC optimized the design and adjusted the bearings structure more than 30 times. Ultimately the product was finalized and passed bench testing for up to 24 hours everyday; a total of 10 months of testing with 25 million rotations were successfully concluded. The customer finally accepted LYC’s testing result and agreed to a small volume production run. These results laid a sound foundation and new business growth for LYC to develop future products in the high end products for this type of industry.
