Rexnord offers a broad range of clutches for customers, including Stearns Clutches, Marine Gear Drive Clutches, BSD Overload Clutches, and BSD Pressure Operated Clutches for a variety of applications. Stearns features clutches for industries including material handling, mining, energy and wind energy. BSD multi-disc torque limiter clutches are mechanical, infinitely-variable overload protections suitable for applications with high speeds and high slipping frequencies. BSD pressure operated clutches are friction clutches most efficiently used in industrial equipment where systems are to be engaged or disengaged. Tested and proven for more than 70 years, Rexnord also offers the Falk B7B Marine Air Clutch. A reliable engine-to-gear connection.
Engineered for Industrial ReliabilityRexnords rigid/flanged gear couplings are specifically crafted for intensive operations in industrial settings. Their superior alloy steel construction, anti-corrosive finish, and ISO precision rating provide lasting durability and consistent performance, even in environments exposed to harsh conditions. With a sealing system for grease lubrication and a robust metallic retainer, these couplings offer reliable, long-term operation with minimal maintenance.
Efficient Performance and Flexible AlignmentDesigned to handle up to 10,000 Nm torque and high speeds up to 4000 RPM, these gear couplings also manage angular misalignments up to 1.5, ensuring smooth power transmission in critical applications. Their precision-engineered structure, including a spherical roller bearing system, supports high radial and axial loads for pump, compressor, and gearbox operations.
FAQs of Rexnord Coupling And Gears:
Q: How does the Rexnord rigid/flanged gear coupling handle misalignment in industrial machinery?
A: The coupling can compensate for up to 1.5 of angular misalignment, which helps prevent stress on connected equipment such as pumps and gearboxes, ensuring smooth operation and reducing downtime.
Q: What are the primary benefits of choosing a Rexnord gear coupling with anti-corrosive coating?
A: The anti-corrosive coating enhances the couplings durability in harsh environments, protecting it from rust and chemical exposure and extending its service life in industrial settings.
Q: When should grease lubrication be performed on Rexnord gear couplings?
A: Routine lubrication intervals should be established based on the machines duty cycle, although the couplings grease-sealed design and low maintenance requirements reduce the frequency of servicing compared to traditional couplings.
Q: Where can Rexnord couplings be installed within industrial facilities?
A: These couplings are well-suited for installation in pumps, compressors, and gearboxes, making them ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications where reliable power transmission and alignment compensation are required.
Q: What is the installation process for Rexnord flanged gear couplings?
A: The coupling is designed for straightforward installation, utilizing a single row gear structure and standard thickness. The bore and outside diameter measurements (38 mm and 95 mm respectively) are set to fit standard shaft sizes, ensuring modularity.
Q: How does compliance with DIN/AGMA and ISO standards impact performance?
A: Compliance guarantees that the couplings meet stringent international requirements for quality, strength, and precision, translating to consistent performance and compatibility with global industrial systems.
