The trend in industry to process more material faster and more efficiently calls for a high-torque, high-misalignment, low-inertia servo coupling, with minimal compromise to torsional stiffness. Stainless-steel bellows couplings have the highest torsional stiffness of commercially available flexible couplings, making them the best choice for aggressive servo-driven applications. But in cases where the two shafts […]

Stainless Steel Servo Insert Coupings
Bensenville, IL – Stainless steel SERVOMAX couplings from R+W feature a highly chemically resistant elastomer element that is press fit between two precision machined coupling halves, giving it zero backlash and guaranteed concentricity. The inserts, available in four different Shore hardnesses, depending on the damping and torque rigidity required, are heat treated within the precision […]
Handbook for Mechanical Torque Limiters
As a part of a series of technical handbooks developed for the European manufacturing industry, R+W has released a new handbook for the design and application of safety and overload couplings. Covering the very basics of what torque limiters are, the varieties available, and why they are used, all the way though complex theories and […]
