NSK launches new interactive 3D game on Canadian oil, gas and mining industries
Written by Gillian Marsh August 25, 2010
NSK Canada announced the launch of a learning program focusing on the oil, gas and mining industries in Alberta and Saskatchewan to “support and improve the productivity of critical production equipment.”
The first part of this program is a new 3D action online game titled NSK Bearing Match (www.nskbearingmatch.com). In the game, players must fix critical machinery with the correct NSK bearing to avoid machine failures. Each of these NSK bearings in the game is used within many industries served by NSK Canada.
“This fun, interactive game experience is a reflection of the creative thinking that goes into the development of our products and the crafting of unique customer solutions,” said Oswaldo Almeida, sales manager aftermarket for NSK. “We feel it is important that our customers and the market understand how innovative we are as a company. It is a key priority for NSK to develop innovative value-added initiatives aimed at enhancing customer support.”
Players of NSK Bearing Match from Alberta and Saskatchewan will be eligible to win prizes, which include Apple iPads and Visa gift cards, according to NSK. So get online and play!
