As more intermittent renewable energy resources are added to the power grid, generator connectivity during a grid fault becomes ever more important to mitigate the risk of cascading blackouts. An ...

Flexible shaft couplings transmit torque from one shaft to another, and redress misalignment between them. The trick is that flexible couplings must act Flexible shaft couplings transmit torque from ...

What use are good components if their performance gets garbled in transmission? Couplings, shafts, and locking devices smooth even brute-force inputs for safer, more consistent output. However, ...

Engineering solutions provider BMG’s new reinforced Fenner Triflex couplings, with forged steel flanges, provide an integrated solution for the safe and efficient transfer of torque, even in extreme ...

High performance carbon fibre shaft couplings from Bibby Turboflex, part of the Altra Industrial Motion Group, can dramatically simplify the design, installation and maintenance of power transmission ...

The difference between flexible shaft couplings and rigid shaft couplings is not just in the terminology but in adsorption of torque. Shaft alignment is key to preventing unnecessary wear and damage ...

Torque spikes can melt elastomers and damage couplings. Learn how to prevent it. Torsional vibration is an occurrence that can have a negative effect on coupling elastomer elements. It can also have a ...
