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 […]
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 […]
Twin Spring Coupling’s flexible coupling technology for replacing U-joints and more
Industrial machinery runs 24/7 365, modern life demands a lot from this machinery and when the equipment is not running it costs money through lost orders, worker down time, and customer dissatisfaction. High speed couplings — couplings, beam and elastomeric, can only run at 4° misalignment before they cause equipment failure through increased vibration and […]
Twin Spring Coupling’s TSC500 for industrial power transmission
TSC500 500-ft-lb replacement for coupling and universal joint in any industrial power transmission application Couplings in an industrial power transmission setup have a number of issues to contend with, annual maintenance, fundamental design flaws coming from a century old technology, industry has evolved but the technology that makes up the standard coupling and universal joint […]
Twin Spring Coupling’s universal joint replacement for the agriculture industry
TSC300 300-ft-lb replacement for universal joint in a driveshaft, steering, axle and any universal joint replacement. As for Power Takeoff Units the punishment is worse. Couplings in the agricultural industry have a number of issues to contend with, annual maintenance, fundamental design flaws coming from a century old technology, the automobile has evolved but the […]
Custom Amerigear Couplings for offshore drilling rig top drive application
A leading global manufacturer of oil and gas drilling equipment needed a robust coupling solution for use on its 1,000 ton top drive. The 2,000 HP drive uses two AC motors, suspended from the rig’s mast, to rotate the drill string of pipe sections into the well hole. These pipe strings can reach lengths of […]
How flexible shafts improve flight
In the history of aerospace manufacturing, there have been several innovative technologies that have changed the shape of flight. Some of these technologies aren’t well known or influential on their own, like the propeller or jet engine, but are instead innovations that occurred behind the scenes, quietly enabling steady improvements to aerospace technologies in various […]
S.S. White Technologies highlights custom flexible shafts for aerospace
S.S. White Technologies, a designer and manufacturer of flexible shafts and related assemblies, highlights bespoke flexible shaft solutions for aerospace applications. Flexible shafts transmit rotary motion much like a solid shaft, but can be routed over, under and around obstacles where a solid shaft cannot be used. Flexible shafts are used in a variety of […]
No maintenance flexible coupling from Twin Spring Coupling
Twin Spring Coupling has announced the release of its new TSC500 (500-ft lbs) flexible coupling solution. Made from 2 counter wound torsion springs and no internal components means a maintenance free flexible coupling with the ability to work at larger angles than traditional universal, CV, Cardan, beam, bellows and other flexible coupling units, at both […]
New flex element/blade triangular bushing design
Ameridrives and Bibby Turboflex, two leading Altra brands, have developed the Tri-Bushing™, a unique flex element/blade triangular bushing design that increases the axial capability of high-performance flexible disc couplings used in turbomachinery applications. Flexible couplings for critical equipment must accommodate angular and axial movement due to thermal growth. In steam and gas turbine applications, machinery […]
