Disc couplings
The METAFLEX disc coupling in metal and stainless steel is a torsionally rigid link-shaped coupling.
Renk is one of the world's leading manufacturers of spur gear couplings. Only a limited range of standard couplings is presented on our website.
For further information on, for example, high speed couplings for speeds up to 40 rpm, please contact our sellers.
For decades, the RENK toothed coupling has been a reliable product all over the world. With this spindle coupling based on the arc tooth technology, RENK has taken this technology a step further and developed a shaft coupling that is mechanically rigid yet movable in all directions.
The shape of the teeth enables purely mechanical mobility without any elastic elements. This product is primarily developed for applications where large torques must be transmitted as compactly as possible.
The spindle coupling can accommodate large deviations and is perfectly suited to most applications in steel mills, whether cold or hot rolling mills.
The primary task of overload protection in machinery systems is to protect valuable machinery from damage due to the occurrence of unexpected and increased torques.
However, it is impossible to completely rule out machine breakdowns caused by sudden overloads that cannot be predicted.
However, a single incident of damage can be far more expensive than an effective overload protection type HYGUARD®.
Appropriate safety equipment is therefore still necessary to protect such systems.
With HYGUARD® hydraulic safety couplings, the torque is transmitted exclusively via friction between the hydrostatically loaded surfaces of the shaft and hub. It works without slipping as long as the preset torque is not exceeded. If the torque exceeds this value, the hydrostatic pressure is quickly released, shutting down the drivetrain immediately.
Commissioning requires some time. The system only needs to be placed under pressure once more.
We at Bengtssons Maskin are proud to offer spur gear couplings from COLOR. These spur gear couplings are at the forefront when it comes to power transmission and mechanical flexibility. A spur gear coupling is a mechanical device designed to safely and efficiently transmit torque between two shafts that are not necessarily exactly aligned. These couplings are known for their ability to handle both high torques and allow some angular misalignment without compromising performance.
The design of the arc tooth coupling is characterized by its arc-shaped teeth that allow a smooth and flexible connection between the coupling halves. This construction enables a high degree of axle alignment as well as absorption of shocks and vibrations.
The couplings are often greased to reduce friction and wear, extending their life and reliability. With angular error tolerances of up to +/- 0,75 degrees for standard models and even higher for special designs, these couplings offer exceptional flexibility in applications where precise shaft alignment is challenging.
Spur couplings are versatile and find use in a wide range of industrial applications. They are particularly valuable in demanding environments where large torques need to be transmitted reliably, for example in heavy industry, steel mills, and in applications with high speeds up to 40 rpm.
Their robust construction makes them ideal for use in cold and hot rolling mills, where they can handle the large deflections and heavy loads that often occur.
One of the biggest advantages of spur gear couplings is their ability to handle high torques and speeds without compromising reliability. This makes them ideal for use in applications that require exceptional performance, from high-speed applications to situations where large power transmission is necessary. Also, thanks to their design, spur gear couplings require less maintenance compared to others connection types, which leads to lower operating costs over time.
