Fujitsu today announced that it has built a platform for NSK Ltd. to support a business model that enables co-creation of value with user companies throughout the product lifecycle of bearing products. This system, which leverages Fujitsu Sustainability Value Accelerator, an offering provided through Fujitsu’s Uvance business model focused on addressing societal challenges, will collect and utilize bearing data across departments, processes, and companies throughout the entire product lifecycle, and provide services for condition monitoring and maintenance. The initiative will promote the reconditioning and reuse of bearing products, supporting NSK’s corporate philosophy of contributing to a sustainable society through global environmental conservation, and enhance corporate value.
The platform is planned for introduction to bearing product customers as a “Powered by Uvance” product. NSK is currently conducting verification with early adopters and will continuously enhance this system through these trials, aiming for full-scale operation of the platform from 2026. Fujitsu will support NSK in the deployment of this platform, expanding its reach to more users. Furthermore, Fujitsu will continue to promote the circular economy and the generation of new business opportunities through co-creation with NSK, our Uvance Partner. By leveraging reliable data integration, we will realize value co-creation that transcends individual companies and industries, ensuring traceability and environmental value assurance.
