Voith has achieved an ambitious sustainability goal: As of the beginning of 2022, Voith has successfully reduced the CO2 emissions at all its sites to “net-zero”. Therefore, the Group’s operations will be climate neutral from January onwards. This success confirms Voith’s pioneering role in the decarbonization of industrial production. All Voith sites worldwide undertook enormous […]

Voith universal joint shafts ensure productivity and reduce maintenance costs. The torque capacity extends beyond 20,000 kNm (14 million lbf ft). If necessary, the design layout of our universal joint shafts can be adapted to your drive and operating conditions. Individually designed for high and maximum torques The CH Series is the standard for high […]

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 […]

Highly flexible D Couplings are the standard for engine test rigs for testing 1 to 3-cylinder internal combustion engines. D couplings feature high torsional flexibility and high torque capacity. Development test rigs, continuous-running test rigs, and end-of-line test rigs operate safely and reliably with this coupling at speeds of up to 10,000 rpm. D Couplings […]

Voith extends its comprehensive range of torque limiting couplings by introducing SafeSet EZi, thus meeting the growing demand for maximum performance and highest safety in industrial environments. The Voith SafeSet series of torque limiting couplings suits all applications and is well-known to facilitate an immediate release at a pre-set torque in the event of a […]

Resolving issues with smarter design The Voith FlexPad Roll End Hub (REH) design greatly increases hub body operational life through a significant reduction in wear. In steel mills work rolls are changed regularly. This requires some clearance between roll end hubs (REH) and work roll ends. The clearance leads to wear and continuously growing play, […]

The HyGrip connection coupling consists of a twin-walled pressure sleeve. It is pressurized with oil up to 1 000 bar and sealed with a brass valve. This results in a completely backlash-free frictional connection. HyGrip connection couplings can be specifically designed to meet the exact requirements of the application. The torque transmission capacity and the […]

In November 2020, crane manufacturer Tadano Demag presented its new AC 450-7 all-terrain crane. Voith is going to supply the wear-free integrated acceleration and braking system (VIAB) for the seven-axle vehicle. The system combines turbo coupling and retarder in one hydrodynamic circuit and thus ensures wear-free starting and braking. This allows highly sensitive maneuvering and […]

Controlling the slip and automatically resetting to improve performance and minimize production stoppages, this process-improving torque limiting coupling handles dynamic torque peaks of short duration safely and without releasing. The AutoSet reduces high torque peaks by slipping up to 180°. If the torque peak has a longer duration, the coupling will release entirely thereby limiting […]

This form-locking, self-centering, and easily detachable connection component connects shafts, disks, rotors, wheels and cranks with remarkable precision and maximum torque capacity. The design facilitates backlash-free operation and is suitable when changing forces. Furthermore, this connection component is also easy to release and transmits torque wear-free with a positional accuracy of 1 – 2 angle […]

Increasing productivity and reducing maintenance with an integrated real-time driveline monitoring system is now a reality. Dtect is a digital intelligence system that supports better decision-making to predict potential problems, protect the driveline and prevent costly downtime. This system can be added to your torque limiting couplings to acquire the coupling’s status and in turn […]

High-torque commercial vehicle engines that are optimized for consumption are more demanding on the drive train today than before. This demand results in substantially greater component wear. The advanced Voith Hydrodamp torsional vibration damper works against these conditions. It provides hydraulic damping and isolates vibrations of the drive train to protect against overloads and to […]

Flexible CT Couplings are especially well-suited for industrial uses. This type of coupling is virtually failure-free and is an optimal and cost-effective solution for many applications. Elastomer elements under pressure provide a damping effect. CT Couplings dampen torsional vibrations and shock loads in the driveline. In addition, the coupling balances axial and radial displacements. This […]

The Voith TurboCool coupling optimizes the operation of gas compressor stations with engine-driven cooling fans. This coupling reliably regulates the speed of the fans to maintain optimum cooling performance. The advantages: The cooling system does not freeze up and does not overheat. This increases availability to the compressor station. The cooling system requires less power. […]

SmartSet is a torque limiting coupling with controlled slip based on the same technology as SafeSet, with the additional ability to also slip without releasing, to reduce short duration and dynamic torque peaks without interupting production. The SmartSet principle is simple: controlled slip torque for process improvement. The SmartSet coupling has the ability to slip […]

The Voith Group continued to show solid results in the first six months (October 2019 through the end of March 2020) of the current fiscal year 2019/20, despite a very challenging market environment. Voith’s figures were negatively affected beginning late March by the COVID-19 pandemic, which first appeared in China – one of Voith’s important […]

Variable Speed Coupling TurboCool The Voith TurboCool coupling optimizes the operation of gas compressor stations with engine-driven cooling fans. This coupling reliably regulates the speed of the fans to maintain optimum cooling performance. The advantages: The cooling system does not freeze up and does not overheat. This increases availability to the compressor station. The cooling […]

Technology Group Voith and Swiss holding company PCS Holding are planning to acquire a combined 59% of the shares in Traktionssysteme Austria GmbH (TSA) with its headquarters in Wiener Neudorf. A corresponding purchase contract was signed on April 29, 2020. TSA is the world’s leading manufacturer of electric motors, generators and transmissions for rail and […]

Voith connection couplings transmit torque, backlash-free in a friction joint. They transfer the most torque in relation to size, which adds high performance and allows for more effective dimensioning of the driveline. Setting and releasing occurs hydraulically, which enables fast installation, service, and maintenance. All models can be customized to suit existing, as well as […]
