Disc & Gear Couplings

Description: Disc and gear couplings offer numerous advantages, particularly in high speed, heavy-duty applications. These products have been subjected to the most intensive technical scrutiny and design development as commitment to product integrity and reliability. Also available is the design of specialised, high performance disc and gear couplings to meet the requirements of virtually any drive system. Regarding advantages engineering ensures extended troublefree service-life into every detail; quality assurance maintains product standards as a function of manufacturing; and post-sale services ensure, deliver and guarantee customer satisfaction throughout the working life of the equipment. In addition to the above, customers are getting the following advantages along with the product: long life and enhanced performance; improved power to weight ratio; high misalignment capability; maximum bore capacity; and high reliability. Regarding coupling selection one can choose suitable coupling type, disc or gear; select the applicable service factor (SF) from table; calculate coupling rating at 100 RPM -kW @ 100 RPM = power (kW) x 100 x SF/speed (RPM). One can choose coupling model with equivalent or higher rating and check maximum bore size with equipment shaft diameter as well as check misalignment capability.
