Since 1976 and the founding of its subsidiary S2M, SKF has prided itself on being the world leader in active magnetic bearing and high-speed permanent magnetic technologies for electric motors.
SKF's Magnetic System solutions focus on high reliability, exceptional energy performance and high speed.

SKF is the world market leader in the development, manufacture, promotion and sale of active magnetic bearings and high speed motors, and many applications use SKF technology.

On the one hand, more than 120,000 turbo molecular vacuum pumps (mainly for the semiconductor sector) now work with SKF magnetic system components.

On the other hand, more than 700 turbomachines in SKF magnetic bearings are used in Natural Gas upstream, midstream and downstream operations. In addition, SKF is again pioneering with magnetic bearings in the first Natural Gas centrifugal compressors laid directly on the seabed.

We want to share with you our passion for technology and the vast possibilities these different industry applications offer.

SKF is ready to serve you with world-class products and capacity, smart resources and vision to help you succeed by innovating.
