Voith connection couplings transmit torque, backlash-free in a friction joint. They transfer the most torque in relation to size, which adds high performance and allows for more effective dimensioning of the driveline. Setting and releasing occurs hydraulically, which enables fast installation, service, and maintenance. All models can be customized to suit existing, as well as […]
Vulkan components in all-electric, medium-sized ferry application
ÆrØ is an island off the coast of Southern Denmark. Since the 70s and 80s, the island has been a pioneer community for renewable energy projects. The mayors have obligated themselves to make ÆrØ CO2-neutral before the year 2025. Windpower plants, district heating based on solar thermal energy, and photovoltaic power cover most of the […]
KTR couplings, brakes, and coolers for wind power technology
Even if the wind power industry is a growth sector now as before, the manufacturers are under fierce competition and cost pressure. The index of “Cost of energy“ is decisive, i. e. the ratio of operating expenses to energy yield. This calculation includes the level of efficiency, availability and maintenance effort. This means for the […]

NBK’s FCL-BUSH flanged shaft coupling
The most popular flexible shaft coupling in Japan that is compliant with JIS B 1452-1991 “Flexible Flanged Shaft Couplings”. Simple structure comprised of a flange and coupling bolts. Easy-to-mount. Bushings can be replaced just by removing coupling bolts. This makes maintenance and service easy. While it absorbs misalignment such as eccentricity and argument, it prevents […]
Twin Spring Coupling launches a new hybrid flexible coupling
Twin Spring Couplings patented design allows the coupling to do the job of two different coupling technologies in the one, as well as offering a truly maintenance-free product as it contains no bearings. The Twin Spring Coupling TSC150 can handle high speed/low misalignment, it can also run at lower speeds and higher misalignment like the […]
Precision sleeve couplings now include hex, square, and threaded bores
A full line of precision sleeve couplings that now includes new bore styles to accommodate hex, square, threaded, and different size shafts has been introduced by Stafford Manufacturing Corp. Stafford Precision Sleeve Couplings feature a solid center section with the Accu-Clamp design which incorporates integral self-centering clamping collars at both ends for mating two shafts with […]
$161,000+ raised in first three months of PTDA Foundation’s fundraising campaign
The PTDA Foundation reached nearly 60 percent of our 2020 fundraising goal in the first three months to support PT WORK Force, the Foundation’s initiative to empower PT/MC (power transmission/motion control) industry employers to be more successful in their recruitment and retention efforts. Funding raised in 2020 will continue the work from 2019. Contributions from […]
Hirth couplings from Voith
The Hirth coupling is a machine component that connects and precisely positions shafts, wheels, disks, and cranks in many areas of mechanical engineering to one another. They can be manufactured from most metals and from plastics. In addition, the Hirth coupling is a connection component that is easy to release. But there are other applications […]
Overload protection for hard to access drives from Mayr
In case of adverse operating and ambient conditions due to dust, contamination, spray water, heat or cold, drive lines are frequently encapsulated and therefore hard to access, especially in the heavy machine industry. To protect such drives and machines reliably against overload, mayr power transmission has developed a disengaging torque limiter with the EAS-reverse on […]
