Zero-Max has published a 12-page Zero-Max catalog of Torq Tender overload safety couplings. These overload safety couplings disengage motor drives for overload protection. They protect motor and drive systems from jam ups and excessive loading. System designers will find this new catalog helpful when examining overload protection options for a particular system design. Available in […]

Composite Disc Couplings for the Wind Turbine Industry
Plymouth, MN – Zero-Max, Inc.announces introduction of its Composite Disc Couplings for the wind turbine industry. “These couplings withstand extreme misalignment while remaining torsionally stiff and have passed the ‘hell hole’ test at Tehachapi, California Wind Farm,” reports James Motz, member of the Wind Team for Zero-Max. “The couplings were tested under conditions simulating a […]
Hydraulic Pumps Benefit From Zero-Max CD® Couplings
Plymouth, Minnesota: New CD Couplings® from Zero-Max are an ideal choice for use with fixed displacement hydraulic pumps driven by servo motors. CD Couplings provide the ideal combination of high dynamic load capacity and high torsional stiffness to ensure reliable system operation. “This new pump drive technology has become increasingly popular because of dramatic improvements […]
Torque Limiters Tag-team to Prevent Overloads
For bottlers, protecting motion and assuring smooth, continuous operation in filler systems are critical in preventing system downtime. To guard against overloads and other system jam-ups, automated filling systems incorporate all types of devices including shear pins, electronic limit switches, and various types of mechanical stopping devices. These options may get the job done, but […]
CD Couplings from Zero-Max
Plymouth, Minnesota: Motion system designers needing to fit a high performance coupling into a small space will find the solution with a specially designed CD coupling from Zero-Max. High power custom CD coupling for small space application Many other difficult coupling needs such as higher misalignment, greater torque capacity and greater torsional stiffness than that […]
