Huco has launched an e-commerce service at www.hucodirect.com, that allows end users to order precision couplings direct from its manufacturing headquarters. The online platform has been created to allow small-volume orders to be delivered globally, with next day shipping on standard orders. The service is suitable for design engineers or MRO operatives who frequently need […]
Voith SmartSet coupling with controlled slip and release
SmartSet is a torque limiting coupling with controlled slip based on the same technology as SafeSet, with the additional ability to also slip without releasing, to reduce short duration and dynamic torque peaks without interupting production. The SmartSet principle is simple: controlled slip torque for process improvement. The SmartSet coupling has the ability to slip […]
Voith SafeSet coupling with instant release
The SafeSet principle is simple: friction and adaptability. No material fatigue or wear ensures constant torque protection during operation. The SafeSet coupling includes a twin-walled hollow sleeve. Friction is generated upon expansion by pressurized hydraulic oil. The integrated shear tube holds pressure to ensure a constant but easy adaptable torque transmission. In an overload situation […]
Voith adds intelligence to torque limiting couplings with Dtect
Voith introduces Dtect, its intelligent monitoring system that provides real-time data of driveline performance and coupling status. Based on this, the operator can take actions to prevent potential problems and avoid unplanned downtime. By supporting better decision making, Dtect helps to increase productivity as well as significantly lower production and maintenance costs. Dtect enables comprehensive […]
New from Ruland: CNC tool shelves and rail mounts
Ruland Manufacturing now supplies Ruland designed CNC tool shelves and rail mounts that assist manufacturers maintain a 6S compliant work environment (Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain, Safety). Tool shelves can fit existing machine mount systems depending on the manufacturer. If mounts are not integral to the machine, Ruland rail mounts can be quickly […]
Ringfeder locking assembly in a ball mill for cement production
Edited by Mike Santora The Challenge After maintenance engineers had examined the ball mill unit thoroughly, the cause of the problem seemed to be the shaft-pinion connection, or to be more exact, the locking assembly that connected the solid shaft with the pinion. Measurements showed the assembly to be out of tolerance by a whopping […]
Vulkan RATO S for flexibly mounted engines and rigidly mounted engines
The highly-flexible RATO S coupling is a torsionally flexible rubber coupling that compensates radial, axial and angular shaft displacements of the connected machinery. The torque is transmitted by elements loaded in shear. The different torsional stiffnesses and damping factors available provide the possibility to satisfactorily tune the torsional vibration behaviour of the drive system. The […]
GAM’s EDC elastomer drive shaft coupling
This is GAM’s EDC Elastomer Drive Shaft Coupling product line. The EDC is part of GAM’s family of zero backlash drive shaft coupling solutions. Offered in four sizes with torque ratings up to 110Nm, the EDC is available in standard lengths up to 3m. Longer lengths are possible if application information is provided during sizing. […]
R+W stainless steel mesh inserts help in high-temp environments
Precision elastomer insert couplings offer technical advantages in a wide variety of power transmission applications. With the rigid jaw hubs machined from solid round bar stock, the torque density can be superior to that of almost any other type of backlash free flexible coupling, depending on the stiffness of the elastomer insert which is used. […]
NBK’s new XGHW-C flexible couplings
This video showcases NBK’s new XGHW-C flexible coupling. These flexible couplings feature vibration absorption function added to high rigidity couplings. Additionally, this coupling has a structure with both high rigidity and vibration absorption. The individual dynamic vibration absorbtion is separate from the inertial rotor and elastic body in order to achieve vibration absorption. NBK […]
