Voith universal joint shafts for small- to medium-sized drives
The S Series is the basic version of Voith universal joint shafts and has been designed for small- to medium-sized drives. The connection flanges are friction flanges. In building the S universal joint shafts, we use high-strength tempered and case-hardened steels that assure the ability to withstand static and dynamic loads. The universal joint shafts […]
Magnetic couplings form KTR
The magnetic couplings of the MINEX range are permanent-magnetic couplings transmitting the torque without contact through magnetic forces between two magnetic rotors. The standard type MINEX-S with containment shroud and magnets positioned radially ensures hermetic separation of driving and driven side in pumps and agitators. As a hysteresis coupling version, it is in turn suitable […]
Highly accurate laser distance sensor tracks targets up to 500 m away
The AS2100 Accurate Distance Sensor is an improved replacement product for the now retired AR2000. “For many years, the AR2000 was a great choice for distance measurement in difficult environments,” said Nick Catalano, Acuity’s General Manager. “Now we have an even stronger option in the AS2100.” A highly accurate laser distance sensor, the AS2100 is…
