Taking steps to complete its offering of precision couplings, in 2010 R+W has begun manufacturing a new line of high torque elastomer insert couplings. The growing popularity of curved jaw (elastomer) style couplings for precision applications has driven the need for R+W to expand well beyond its traditional torque capacity of 2,150 Nm up to a maximum torque of 25,000 Nm.
Available with split clamping collars or keyway and set screw connections, the three new body sizes allow for backlash free, vibration damping power transmission, paired with strong torque density. Dual flexture and jack shaft versions are also available for spanning longer distances and compensating for larger misalignments. Unlike the pre existing range of R+W elastomer couplings, which use a single spider element between the new hubs, the new larger sizes will use individual vibration damping compensation elements to fit between each mating set of coupling teeth.
With English and metric bore diameters up to 170mm, the new high torque line of elastomer couplings is already available, with the catalog coming later in 2010.
