ARPEX ART® high performance couplings consist of pure expertise combined with the greatest possible power density. They are used in all high-speed drive systems that require torque transfer where shaft misalignment is occurring simultaneously. The ARPEX ART leaves nothing to be desired in terms of both bore capacity and safety: their compact design allows them to compensate for all of the expected misalignments in a very small space and, at the same time, gives them the highest possible torque capacity, the lowest possible weight and a very good center of gravity.
- Torsionally rigid, backlash-free, all-steel multiple-disk coupling for high-speed applications
- Nominal torque range from TKN = 1,000 Nm up to 588,500 Nm with 16 sizes
- Temperature range: from –40 °C to +280 °C
- Lubrication of disks not required
- Torque transfer with no play due to patented, positive compression screw fitting of the disk pack
- High balance quality
- Meets the requirements of API 671
- Suitable for use in potentially explosive environments; certified according to 2014/34/EU (ATEX)
- Easy assembly with factory-mounted half-couplings and/or transfer units
- Low reaction forces
- Installation and removal of the couplings without axial misalignment
