Description
ARPEX all-steel couplings have proved themselves for over 30 years in all fields of engineering where reliable and maintenance-free transmission of torque is required in the case of shaft misalignments. The compact and rugged design ensures a long service life and a high degree of operational reliability.
Examples of application
Type approvals of many Classification Societies are on hand for the use of ARPEX couplings in shipbuilding.
Other examples of application are
Pumps
Compressors
Ventilators
Paper machine drives
Special designs are used in
Wind turbines
High-speed generators
Advantages of the product
