Introduction
This document provides comprehensive information on Flender Mechanical Power Transmission Couplings, distributed by jbj Techniques. It details various coupling types, their specifications, applications, and benefits.
Flexible Couplings
Flender offers several flexible couplings, including:
  • N-EUPEX: Cam couplings with torque from 19 Nm to 62,000 Nm.

Flender Mechanical Power Transmission Couplings available from jbj Techniques FLUDEX couplings are hydrodynamic fluid couplings which operate on the Fottinger principle. FLUDEX® couplings limit starting and maximum torque in the drive train and, through the property of rotational slip, serve as an aid to starting the motor, as overload protection in the event of fault and for isolating torsional vibration. To compensate for shaft misalignment, the FLUDEX® coupling is combined with a displacement coupling e.g. of the N-EUPEX® type. Railway Couplings Couplings for rail vehicles developed, tested...
