Applications Elastically set-up drives with the highest level of comfort characteristics The PROPFLEX coupling is a flexible displacement coupling for different application areas. Torque transmission with simultaneous compensation of displacement occurs […]
Ringfeder couplings for advanced motion control systems
Users already know the important role Ringfeder couplings play in heavy-duty equipment, from cranes and hoists to pumps and compressors. But coupling can also make or break applications requiring advanced, precision motion control — like surgical robots, medical device manufacturing, medical imaging, lab automation, semiconductor equipment, and industrial robots. A Rundown of Ringfeder Couplings When […]
New from Ruland: slit couplings
Ruland Manufacturing and Reliance Precision have agreed to cooperate by offering Reliance designed and manufactured slit couplings through Ruland’s eCommerce platform and extensive worldwide distribution network. Ruland will stock and bore to size a wide selection of slit couplings in its Marlborough, MA location. The addition of slit couplings gives Ruland a more complete zero-backlash […]
SKF hydraulically operated bolt tensioners
HYDROCAM hydraulically operated bolt tensioners are designed to offer far greater accuracy compared with alternative fixing methods. HYDROCAM removes uncertainty over the performance and long-term reliability of couplings. It also saves time and reduces risks, with its superior control and safety. Damage to bolts and associated structures is avoided, installation is faster, operation of equipment […]

Shaft end adapters solve compatibility issues
A line of machinable shaft end adapters that can be customized to solve a virtually unlimited range of shaft compatibility and component mounting issues in machinery, materials handling, and packaging systems has been introduced by Stafford Manufacturing Corp. Stafford Machinable Shaft-End Adapters come in three configurations where the female clamps onto the shaft end: one […]
Voith Group’s results remain stable through first half of fiscal year 2019/20
The Voith Group continued to show solid results in the first six months (October 2019 through the end of March 2020) of the current fiscal year 2019/20, despite a very challenging market environment. Voith’s figures were negatively affected beginning late March by the COVID-19 pandemic, which first appeared in China – one of Voith’s important […]
PTDA’s Industry Reports Show power transmission industry to decline
The first quarter 2020 Sales History & Outlook Report (SHOR) released by the Power Transmission Distributors Association (PTDA) indicates the COVID-19 outbreak and oil supply-demand imbalance have resulted in an unprecedentedly steep drop-off in sales across many sectors of the economy. The PTDA Distributors SHOR Index and Manufacturers SHOR Index will likely reach cyclical lows […]
RoCom H Series high-performance clamp coupling
All couplings have an inside relief so the shafts will not touch the beams at the maximum misalignment. Clamps are an integral part of the coupling and use hex socket cap screw with black oxide finish. Tightening torques are the screw manufacturer’s maximum ratings. Set screws are 120° apart. All screws are hex socket steel […]
Vulkan VULKARDAN L highly flexible coupling
Torque range 0.16 kNm – 12.5 kNm Applications Flexibly mounted engines When the driven machine is not in line with the prime mover or when long distances have to be bridged, cardan shafts are used. With a diesel engine as the prime mover, a highly flexible coupling will be required for shifting resonances and damping […]
