EMA multiple disc electric brakes are a reliable choice for critical applications
By Ringfeder Editor In mission-critical military applications or other rugged, high-performance environments, braking systems must provide superior functionality and excellent reliability. Ideal for these kinds of projects, the EMA multiple disc electric brake ensures smooth and safe operation, delivering three to six times more torque than a single disc electric brake of the same size. […]
Ringfeder: What can vibration dampers do for earthquake-resistant construction?
How does a vibration damping system work? Vibration damping systems encompass energy-absorbing devices which are installed into the building structure to dissipate a large portion of the induced energy. Such energy absorption elements are not normally the main load-bearing components of a structure. Yet, structural deformation or vibrations cause these devices to move resulting in […]
Ringfeder elastomer jaw couplings GWE, TNM, TNS & TNB
Ringfeder’s Elastomer Jaw Couplings of the RINGFEDER GWE, TNM, TNS, and TNB series — originating in the proven GERWAH and TSCHAN series – meet the highest performance and durability requirements in a wide range of sectors, e.g. the steel and metal industry, drive and conveyor technology, power generation, machine tool, packaging and printing machine construction […]
Get to know Ringfeder’s bi-directional, one-way clutch
A clutch that is both bi-directional and one-way might sound like a contradiction. But in fact, we offer just such a clutch. As a bi-directional clutch, the MTL can transmit torque from input to output shaft in either rotational direction. And, its one-way functionality prevents output shaft loads from backdriving into your other power transmission […]
Steel disc couplings TND VDV
Torsionally rigid, absolutely backlash-free steel disc couplings of the new series RINGFEDER TND – originating from the proven TSCHAN, POSIMIN, and GERWAH series — are suitable for the most diverse applications and particularly ideal for all drive tasks requiring freedom from wear and maintenance as well as excellent misalignment compensation and positioning accuracy. The characteristic […]
Ringfeder on protecting buildings during earthquakes
1. Additional reinforcement of the building structure Earthquake-proof buildings generally consist of shear walls, cross braces, diaphragms, and moment-resisting frames. These components all serve to redistribute forces. For example, shear walls that are composed of several panels help buildings in motion keep their shape. Cross braces absorb compression and tensile forces by pushing back the […]
Ringfeder — Dynamical torsional stiffness: some couplings need finer tuning
The coupling is normally the softest element in the drive line, literally – but by no means the weakest link of the chain. Its configuration plays a decisive role in the functional capability of the driving and driven machine and in the reliability and lifetime of the entire drive system. The optimum adjustment of the […]
