Exhibitor Press Release: JESA SA

Friday, 29 July 2022

JESA SA, is a company specialized in the design, development and production of customized bearings and integrated bearing assemblies. The company was founded by Joseph Egger in 1969 and begun trading in ball bearings before starting its own bearing production factory in 1971. JESA markets its solutions worldwide in sectors as varied as the automotive, textile, linear guidance, medical technologies and others.

Since 2003, JESA also has a subsidiary in China to develop these activities and manage its network of subcontractors. In 2008, JESA expanded its activities in China by creating its own production factory of components and bearings for the headquarters in Switzerland. The JESA group has been part of POLYGENA AG for more than 20 years and employs today 300 people.

More than 50 years of experience have made JESA the specialist in customized solutions, containing bearings and machined parts, together with engineering polymers. JESA does not have a fixed product range that can be consulted in a catalogue. Each customer generates a different project, which then results in a specific product.

The JESA research centre, also based in Switzerland is at the leading edge of innovation. Its huge experience in high-end materials, bearing geometries and plastic injection molding creates a unique conception focused on the design of solutions adapted to the specifications of our customers.

During the fair, JESA will showcase track rollers, overmolded bearings, high requirements bearings and bearing units illustrating its know-how in those specific realisations. JESA SA will also expose an exclusive innovation with the presentation of TORLON® PAI overmolded bearing. The TORLON® PAI is a melt processable plastic with outstanding mechanical properties, combining advantages of metals (high strength, low creep, high wear resistance) and those of plastics (high elongation, low density, processing complex shapes). JESA is one of the very few companies in the world with a mastery of TORLON® PAI injection process.

The bearing show will be the perfect opportunity to see the JESA’s products and latest innovations as well as getting interesting exchanges with JESA’s bearing specialists.

JESA SA will be exhibiting on stand 437 at The Bearing Show on the 6th – 8th September 2022.
