New demands on shaft couplings

For applications involving a speed-controlled drive it is important that the entire speed range is kept mainly free from resonances, which means vibration analysis is a vital consideration when selecting a suitable coupling.

KTR's torsionally flexible ROTEX jaw coupling dampens vibrations and shocks effectively while reliably compensating for axial, radial and angular displacements. Manufactured from T-PUR as standard, they offer a temperature range of -50 to + 120˚C.

Specifically for applications with variable speeds, the company also offers BoWex HEW Compact, which has a very high elasticity and almost linear damping characteristics in operation. Stand D130
