Hybrid Couplings

Both synchronous motor and variable frequency motor trains apply high vibratory torque loads to drive them when they synchronize at start-up or experience due to resonant frequency interference at certain operating speeds, respectively.? To combat these loads, the equipment can be increased in size or dampened to reduce the magnitude of these loads.

? ?

KOP-FLEX? offers both solutions ? large size couplings as well as MAX-C? WB type torsionally resilient damping couplings. MAX-C couplings provide dampening with high dampening SBR rubber blocks loaded in compression with WB wedge shaped blocks.

A MAX-C resilient coupling, coupled with high performance disc or diaphragm or gear coupling, provides an economical high speed coupling combination. MAX-C is used on one end and one of the three different types of high performance couplings on the other end joined together with a spacer.? Advantages of hybrid couplings are:

  • ?Reduced torsional loads
  • ?Lighter weight, economical design
  • ?No lubrication required on MAX-C end
  • ?High shock load capacity
  • ?Only KOP-FLEX can offer this hybrid coupling from a single source
