SOME TYPICAL COUPLINGS

1.Flexible Couplings: Flexible Flender couplings have a wide range of possible applications. A broad standard modular system as well as specially designed application-specific coup[1]lings are available.

N-EUPEX cam couplings Rated torque: 19 Nm … 62,000 Nm,

RUPEX RUPEX pin-and-bush couplings Rated torque: 200 Nm … 1,300,000 Nm

N-BIPEX N-BIPEX cam couplings Rated torque: 12 Nm … 4,650 Nm

2. Highly Flexible Couplings ELPEX®:  couplings are free of circumferential back-lash. Their damping capacity and low torsional stiff-ness make them especially well-suited for coupling machines with strongly non-uniform torque characteristics or large shaft misalignment.

  • ELPEX elastic ring couplings Rated torque: 1,600 Nm … 90,000 Nm
  • ELPEX-B elastic tire couplings Rated torque: 24 Nm … 14,500 Nm
  • ELPEX-S rubber disk couplings Rated torque: 330 Nm … 63,000 Nm

3.Torsionally rigid couplings

For transmission of high torques, we offer both ARPEX all-steel couplings and ZAPEX gear couplings in a range of versions. Their purposes of application vary accor[1]ding to specific requirements with respect to shaft misalignment, temperature and torque.

ZAPEX gear couplings Rated torque: 1,300 Nm … 7,200,000 Nm

ARPEX high Performance Couplings Rated torque: 1,000 Nm … 588,500 Nm

N-ARPEX and ARPEX all-steel couplings Rated torque: 92 Nm … 2,000,000 Nm

4. Hydrodynamic couplings: The FLUDEX hydrodynamic fluid coupling works accor[1]ding to the Föttinger principle. It functions entirely free of wear.

5. Application-specific couplings Couplings for rail vehicles must meet high demands. Due to their high degree of stan[1]dardization and wide variety, they can be used in the most diverse vehicle types.

  • Railway coupling Rated torque: 1,000 Nm … 9,500 Nm. Each wind turbine coupling is designed to optimally meet the requirements of the respective wind turbine. The coupling connects the fast-running gear shaft with the generator shaft and is available for wind turbines with a capacity of up to 12 MW.
  • Wind turbine couplings Rated torque: 10,000 Nm … 60,000 N

6. Flexible Couplings: Flexible Flender couplings have a wide range of possible applications. A broad standard modular system as well as specially designed application-specific coup[1]lings are available.

  • N-EUPEX cam couplings Rated torque: 19 Nm … 62,000 Nm,
  • RUPEX RUPEX pin-and-bush couplings Rated torque: 200 Nm … 1,300,000 Nm
  • N-BIPEX N-BIPEX cam couplings Rated torque: 12 Nm … 4,650 Nm
