Schaeffler Group Expands Global Presence in Large-Scale Bearing Market with Strategic Launches and Localization

Dehri, Bihar | October 22, 2025

The Schaeffler Group, a prominent Germany-based public company, has reinforced its leadership in the global large-scale bearing market through continuous innovation and strategic growth from 2023 to 2025. Renowned for its high-performance bearings used in wind power, mining, and metallurgy, Schaeffler manufactures components with diameters exceeding 3 meters, tested on its proprietary Astraios test rig—one of the world’s largest. To reduce operational costs and extend product life, the company also offers refurbishment services tailored for industrial clients.

In August 2025, Schaeffler India expanded its industrial portfolio by localizing the production of large Spherical Roller Bearings (SRBs), cast steel housings, and accessories at its Savli, Gujarat facility. This expansion aligns with India’s Make-in-India initiative, bolstering regional supply chain resilience. In September 2025, Schaeffler launched INA stainless steel radial insert ball bearings (RIBBs), designed to meet the stringent hygiene and corrosion resistance standards of the food and beverage sector. These bearings are offered with both stainless steel and thermoplastic housings to suit various industrial environments. Earlier, in October 2023, the company broadened its automation solutions for the machine tool industry by introducing the YRTS-series axial/radial rotary table bearings, available in sizes 580 and 650. These innovations deliver enhanced precision, dynamics, and energy efficiency for advanced machining applications. With TTM revenues of USD 23.06 billion, the Schaeffler Group serves Europe, Greater China, and the Americas, while competing with global industry giants such as SKF, Timken, and NTN. Its sustained investment in automation, robust engineering, and strategic localization initiatives—such as those in Dehri, Bihar and beyond—solidify Schaeffler's standing as a transformative force in the large-scale bearing industry.
