The International Armoured Vehicles Conference 2023, starting from 23rd- 26th January 2023, provides the perfect opportunity for Carter Manufacturing Ltd. to exhibit their wide range of defence bearings and tools for diverse military applications. The IAV 2023, which is being held at the Twickenham Stadium, in London, encompasses the most advanced military and defence technology that applies to a variety of complex applications relevant to the armed forces.
Some of the most challenging applications for our bearings are found in the defence and military sectors, where manufacturers are always vying for the latest technology to rotate crucial military equipment with escalating speed, precision, and resilience. Carter Manufacturing Ltd. have a momentous history of more than 20 years of providing industry-leading precision bearings that are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, loads, and speediness of these demanding military applications.
Carter Manufacturing are exhibiting a wide array of bearing products, at the IAV 2023, such as the Silverthin precision thin section bearings, which are ideal for defence applications where weight and space are limited. In addition to ground combat and security vehicles, these bearings are utilised in helicopters, fighter jets, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), freight, airlifts, and commercial aircraft. Military Turret Bearings are a remarkable solution where minimal weight and maximum corrosion resistance are both crucial requirements. Moreover, wire raceways are placed inside thin support rings to create specialised bearings called the UNASIS Ultra Lightweight slewing bearings, which are up to 60% lighter than those made solely of steel, while still having a higher load capacity and a wider diameter.
