The Lecoimpex team organized a momentous celebration event in Târgu Mureș, to which the company’s coworkers, JTEKT Europe, partners and friends were invited.

Bartha Carol, the General Manager of Lecoimpex, made a brief presentation of the company’s start-up period, 1992-1996, when Leco began to distribute industrial spare parts.

Bartha Carol highlighted the fact that the good decisions, the high quality products and a valuable team led the company to success. He was also talking about the technical services the company offers to customers, services that come to complete the wide range of products LECO distributes.

The second speaker, Fodor Venczel, the Commercial Director of Lecoimpex, was talking about the company’s present and its future plans. The LECO team is full of new ideas and constantly innovates, this process leads the company to continuous growth. In 2019 LECO launched a new web shop with 60-70 thousand products, most of them with detailed technical description, which facilitates the buyer’s decision and act of buying.

Fodor Venczel also spoke about important news at the level of physical stores: „we purchased a new headquarter in Bistrița, where we implemented a new store model, the self-service shop. A Self-service shop makes the products more visible and it gives a better shopping experience for the customers. We also plan to buy a new logistic center in Târgu Mureș, which will offer the possibility to have another and bigger self-service shop and to have a much bigger warehouse than the current one.”

The last speaker was Eliade Rotariu, a special guest, business trainer and coach. He was talking about the crisis and resilience offering a series of useful tips for this complicated period of life.

During the celebration JTEKT Europe – represented by Mr. Dimitri Loutfi, Senior General Manager AM Europe, handed over an AWARD to Lecoimpex - Mr. Bartha Carol, CEO as an appreciation for the long term, trustful and fruitful partnership.

The evening ended with a festival where the employees and the guests had the opportunity to share their thoughts.

FAQ

What is an angular contact ball bearing?

An angular contact ball bearing uses axially asymmetric races. An axial load passes in a straight line through the bearing, whereas a radial load takes an oblique path that tends to want to separate the races axially. So the angle of contact on the inner race is the same as that on the outer race. Angular contact bearings better support "combined loads" (loading in both the radial and axial directions) and the contact angle of the bearing should be matched to the relative proportions of each. The larger the contact angle (typically in the range 10 to 45 degrees), the higher the axial load supported, but the lower the radial load. In high speed applications, such as turbines, jet engines, and dentistry equipment, the centrifugal forces generated by the balls changes the contact angle at the inner and outer race. Ceramics such as silicon nitride are now regularly used in such applications due to their low density (40% of steel). These materials significantly reduce centrifugal force and function well in high temperature environments. They also tend to wear in a similar way to bearing steel—rather than cracking or shattering like glass or porcelain.

Most bicycles use angular-contact bearings in the headsets because the forces on these bearings are in both the radial and axial direction.
