Given the range of applications for shrink discs, Ringfeder has always offered a wide range of sizes. But sometimes, engineers may need a larger model than they carry. In these cases, Ringfeder will customize one of its standard shrink discs to fit a customer’s needs—which is exactly what they did for an industrial gearbox company […]
How sweet it is: Coupling assists in sugarcane processing application
By Matheus Mendes The sugarcane industry is one of the most flourishing segments of the Brazilian Economy. With a production of up to 624 million metric tonnes of sugarcane in the 2017 harvest season, the country holds the world record production for both sugar and ethanol from this raw material. Uniting technology in both agricultural […]
What are the main functions of a coupling?
Couplings transmit torque in drive systems. But they are able to do more. These are the three essential functions of a coupling. Transmitting torque Power and speed result in torque. Only with the transmission of torque a machine can be operated. Compensating misalignment “If a coupling is not installed in the ideal physically straight […]
