For more than 60 years, Flender-Graffenstaden is recognised as the world leader for Gearboxes used in Industrial Power Generation applications including either gas turbine or steam turbine driven generators.
The double-jointed gear couplings of the ZAPEX ZW series compensate angular, parallel and axial misalignment of shafts. They are particularly suitable for use under rough operating conditions such as drives in the iron smelting or cement industry.
ARPEX all-steel couplings are free of backlash, have a compact design and are characterized by a low power-to weight ratio. They are suitable for use at high ambient temperatures and particularly for machines that must be driven precisely, e.g. paper and printing machines, pumps, compressors and high-speed generators.
Due to their torsional flexibility N-EUPEX couplings offer the possibility of moving critical torsional vibrations from the operating area of the mechanical equipment in such a way that no negative effects on the drive train are to be expected.
BIPEX couplings are used for all mechanical engineering purposes where an uninterrupted transmission of power is required even in the presence of unavoidable shaft misalignments. bipexBIPEX couplings are particularly suitable for the connection of driven machines with uniform torque loads.
RUPEX couplings are used as flexible compensating couplings in all applications requiring a reliable transmission of torque under harsh operating conditions. The conical seats of the buffer pins facilitate mounting and guarantee rupexmaintenance-free operation. The optimized shape of the barrelled buffers allows simple plug-in assembly and low circumferential backlash.
The FLUDEX coupling is a fluid coupling on which the coupling parts on the input and output side are not mechanically connected and thus resistant to wear. FLUDEX couplings limit the starting and the maximum torque in the drive train and serve as starting aid for the motor, as overload protection in case of malfunction, and for torsional vibration separation.
Flender manufacturers the SIG (standard industry gear) and SIP (planetary) gear unit ranges. All Torque Transmissions distributes the entire range, with delivery ex Europe.
