In 1883, Friedrich Fischer designed a ball mill that, for the first time, allowed machines to be used to produce steel balls with high precision and in large volumes in Schweinfurt, Germany. This idea is considered the historic beginning of the rolling bearing industry, which then started its widespread success around the globe from Schweinfurt. Since its acquisition by INA-Holding Schaeffler KG in 2001, FAG has become a very important part of the Schaeffler Group.
Whether it is high-precision bearings for aerospace applications, sensor wheel bearings for passenger cars, or large-size bearings with outside diameters of over four meters for wind turbines, FAG products are the number one choice for all customers.
