Precision joint with plain bearing G/GD
KTR precision joints consist of a joint center piece and two hubs that are interlinked by straps. The bearing of the joint heads is made by plain bearings with precision joints type G and GD. The plain bearings type G and GD limit the maximum permissible speed to 1,000 rpm. The maximum diffraction angle of KTR’s […]
Miki Pulley brakes for satellite dishes applications
Signals are effectively transmitted with the latest satellites when equipped with the newest Miki Pulley BXR-LE brakes. They effectively control satellite dish positioning using less power over long periods of operation. The Miki Pulley brake opens and allows for free rotation when the satellite dish is panning and tilting and snaps closed when power is […]
First coupling development by KTR think tank
KTR has developed a new all-purpose coupling for use in a broad range of applications from main to auxiliary drives in construction equipment and general industry. The zero-backlash and torsionally soft EVOLASTIC is available in ten base sizes and with variants in between covering nominal torques from 100 to 5,600 Nm. Spacers for large DBSE (distance between shaft ends) […]
Timken MDSD Series coupling
The compact design of the MDSD (Mini Disc Single Disc) Series accommodates applications that allow for a minimum amount of space for the coupling. The MDSD Series coupling also features a high torsional stiffness over the MD and MDS Series. The MDSD Series also has the lowest inertia of the mini disc designs. Features Zero […]
