VULKAN Drive Tech Drive Solutions for E.O.T. Cranes

Overhead E.O.T. gantry cranes for general purposes (i.e. port cranes) or those used for special applications such as in the steelworks industry (i.e. roll mill & coil cranes, furnace loading cranes, ladle cranes, etc), require independent drives for hoist winches, trolley traversing and bridge travelling. Each drive has specific requirements to which the couplings and brakes must comply: a high number of starting per hour, elevated number or reversals, limited space availability, large inertias and dynamic torque values, as well as synchronous torque transmission. Service & Emergency brakes...

To face all of these requirements, VULKAN Drive Tech has product portfolio that is specific for belt conveyors applicatio torsional flexible couplings, torsional rigid couplings, service and backstops focusing on the following three major key a Efficiency To minimise service and machinery lay down costs, VULKAN Drive Tech has developed fluid couplings with specific slip index, optimized for belt conveyor applications and couplings with special elastic elements that are made of chemical contamination resistant materials. These increase the lifetime of the products considerably. Brakes are...

s developed an extensive ons, including fluid couplings, and emergency brakes aspects: Design Couplings, brakes and backstops have an extremely high interaction rate within the design of a conveyor belt drive train. VULKAN Drive Tech provides specific designs to closely match the integrated installation of couplings and brakes (or backstops), with a view to optimising product performances. State of the art engineering, 3D CAD tools, in-house testing are the foundation of VULKAN know-how. Drive Solutions for E.O.T. Cranes VULKAN Drive Tech

FLEXOMAX Nominal Torque Range: 3 – 1,288,800 Nm FLEXOMAX FLEXOMAX is a family of torsional flexible couplings which are used for high speed shaft installation. It is characterized by claw design and shaft to shaft design together with custom versions for radial removability without the connected machinery. VULKAN Drive Tech

FEATURES FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS FLEXOMAX G, FLEXOMAX GSN, FLEXOMAX GBN The three different designs available are FLEXOMAX G, FLEXOMAX GSN and FLEXOMAX GBN; each of which is developed to fulfill specific requirements in terms of nominal torque transmission, shock loads absorption, axial, radial and angular misalignments capacity. The elastic element of the three designs differs as regards material and geometry and this means that it complies with even the most demanding application requirements. FLEXOMAX is available in more than 30 different versions and 50 different sizes. This ensures it will...

DENFLEX Nominal Torque Range: 1 – 560 kNm DENFLEX DENFLEX is a tooth gear coupling that is torsionally rigid and used for synchronous torque transmission. The tooth gear profile allows the transmission of high torque values within minimum sizing of the coupling and compensates axial, radial and angular misalignments with low reaction forces generation. VULKAN Drive Tech Drive Solutions for E.O.T. Crane

FEATURES RIGID COUPLINGS It is particularly suitable for low speed shaft applications where high torque within limited size and weight is mandatory. The modular design of its components allows a huge variety of design compositions, which in turn fit even the most demanding applications. The tooth profile is the core of this coupling and DENFLEX features a specific design that guarantees the minimum surface contact area between teeth. This ensures that friction and the consequent wearing of the parts is reduced, hence increasing the lifetime of the product. The spline design of the tooth...

ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKES Nominal Torque Range: 15 – 11,545 Nm ELECTROMAGNETIC DISC BRAKE Large machinery might require service and parking brakes due to the high inertias of the machinery components. VULKAN Drive Tech has a wide range of failsafe ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKES used for this scope, which are specifically designed to comply with service, parking or emergency working profiles.
