Radicon launch extended range of gear couplings

Aug. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- The Radicon range of Elign gear couplings are ideally suited to accommodate Radial, Angular and combined Radial and Angular misalignment, whilst also permitting axial movement of the shaft.

A Gear Coupling is used to join two rotating shafts for efficient transmission of mechanical power. Although the shafts are accurately aligned at the time of installation, it is likely that during the operation the alignment may get disturbed due to a variety of reasons. This is why a gear coupling is the ideal solution to compensate or minimise the effect of misalignment.

The Elign gear coupling range is first and foremost dependable and provides quality efficient operation in high torque applications. Radicon’s experience and expertise in manufacturing high quality reliable products is further enhanced with the Elign gear coupling range, and the product can be counted on, even in the harshest of conditions.
The Elign gear coupling is a simple, compact and light unit for transmitting the same power when compared to the couplings of similar capacity available in the market. It is manufactured out of tested quality forged carbon steel and passes through a number of quality checks.
