Benefits:
ZAPEX gear couplings link machine shafts and compensate for shaft misalignment with weak restorative forces. High transmissible torque combined with compactness and light weight are characteristic of ZAPEX couplings. ZAPEX coupling types are constructed on a modular principle, so application-related solutions can be delivered quickly.
This coupling requires very little maintenance. Regular grease changes at the prescribed intervals prolong the service life of the coupling.
Application
ZAPEX couplings are especially suited for operation in harsh operating conditions, such as drives in the iron smelting or cement industry.
ZAPEX couplings are suitable for reverse operation and horizontal mounting positions and, in the case of type ZNNV, for vertical mounting positions.
