Couplings

ELCO flexible couplings for effective damping of shocks and vibrations.

The torsionally resilient, flexible coupling is responsible for effectively dampening the shocks and vibrations that occur in drive systems during operation. Due to the special spring and damping properties of the profiled coupling sleeves, ELCO effectively limits torsional vibrations. The special design ensures the failsafe and consistent transmission of torque. In addition, it permits limited radial and angular misalignments of the shafts being connected and absorbs longitudinal displacements. 

Due to the adaptability and high-quality design, RENK ELCO couplings have proven in tens of thousands of drives used in conventional energy production, in mining and hydropower, as well as in the oil, gas, and the petrochemical industry.
