ELCO flexible couplings for effective damping of shocks and vibrations.

ELCO flexible couplings for effective damping of shocks and vibrations.

The torsionally resilient, flexible coupling Couplings Couplings connect two shafts to transmit torque. is responsible for effectively dampening the shocks and vibrations that occur in drive systems during operation. Due to the special spring and damping properties of the profiled coupling Couplings Couplings connect two shafts to transmit torque. sleeves, ELCO effectively limits torsional vibrations. The special design ensures the failsafe and consistent transmission Transmission A vehicle transmission transfers engine power to the wheels and allows for variable driving speeds. of torque. In addition, it permits limited radial and angular misalignments of the shafts being connected and absorbs longitudinal displacements. 

Due to the adaptability and high-quality design, RENK ELCO couplings Couplings Couplings connect two shafts to transmit torque. have proven in tens of thousands of drives used in conventional energy production, in mining and hydropower, as well as in the oil, gas, and the petrochemical industry.
