Bearing manufacturers and their customers are seeking solutions to speed time-to-market of new products, increase customer confidence during sales cycles, and generate new revenue streams. Physical testing capabilities and industry standards are important for the product design and validation process.

However, some of the bottlenecks such as the cost and time can increase the risk of developing innovations, increase the time-to-market of new products, and cause customer to have low confidence of product performance at new product launch.
