SKF has won a prestigious Golden Mousetrap award for the SKF Machine Condition Indicator (MCI). Golden Mousetrap awards are bestowed by the trade publication Design News to celebrate companies, products and people that energize North American design, engineering and manufacturing.

SKF’s condition monitoring tool, which offers a cost-effective and easy-to-use method of monitoring machine health, was voted Best Product of the Year for Electronic & Test in the category Test & Measurement.

Torsten Bark, product line manager for the SKF Machine Condition Indicator, says, “On one hand the SKF Machine Condition Indicator is as simple as a ‘check engine’ light. On the other hand an advanced algorithm prevents the unit from false alarming. The MCI truly has SKF knowledge engineering behind it.”
