Commercial & precision flexible couplings from SDP/SI
Flexible Couplings have the ability to compensate for shaft misalignment and are designed to accommodate various types of load conditions. No one type of coupling can provide the universal solution to all coupling problems; hence many designs are available, each possessing construction features to accommodate one or more types of application requirements. SDP/SI offers many […]

Voith HP coupling
HP Coupling The HP Coupling was specifically designed for realistic test scenarios of combustion engines where a dummy gearbox is bell-house-mounted to the engine. In these scenarios, the HP Coupling protects the test rig against damaging torsional vibrations and shifts the natural frequency below idle speed. A viscous-hydraulic damping system and an isolation function give […]
Regal Rexnord torsionally soft couplings
Torsionally soft couplings use an elastomeric element to reduce harmful torque impulses. Our torsionally soft couplings increase shock absorption and damp vibration, making for lower noise levels and increased operator comfort during use. Torsional resonances are shifted to below operating speed ranges protecting the driver and driven equipment from torsional-related failures. CENTAMAX The rubber-in-shear […]
Regal Rexnord flange couplings
Flange couplings that are designed to be mounted on engine flywheels typically come with SAE connections and are used to connect diesel engines to hydraulic pumps or splitter gearboxes. These elements help to absorb shocks and vibrations, reducing wear on the engine and the connected components. They also help to compensate for any misalignment between […]
Torque limiters and couplings: ROBA-DSM
Couplings from mayr power transmission ensure reliable torque transmission and safely limit forces and torques. The shaft couplings connect shafts in the power train and compensate for misalignments. Depending on the design, they are either rigid or flexible. The mayr torque limiting clutches reliably limit torques and forces and thus prevent damage to the power […]
AFS Brake delivers fast, reliable, positive braking action
By Ringfeder editor Medium-duty applications — like starting and stopping medical diagnostic equipment and robotics — require reliable, precision-engineered brakes. Our AFS Multiple Disc Air/Hydraulic Spring Set Brake meets these requirements, delivering high-performance, fast and reliable action. Here’s how it works: The AFS applies braking torque when air or hydraulic pressure is removed from the […]
ComInTec axial force limiter
DESCRIPTION Safety coupling with linear limitation of force. Releasing both compressive and tension once it reaches the calibration force. The setting force can be adjusted by turning the adjuster nut onto the springs and re-engagement is automatic. The possibility of connecting linear motion is also very distant from each other. No axial play Protection in […]
