Shaft to shaft high torque drives used in bulk handling systems for coal, cement, sugar, rubber and steel mills require reliable protection for expensive equipment. Using gear type couplings Howdon have designed a complete range of Wedgegard spacers that sandwich between coupling flanges.
Gear type couplings are designed with triple crown teeth to give a high degree of axial and angular misalignment and are manufactured to AGMA standards. When combined with the Wedgegard spacer effective drive protection with accessibility is provided in all operating conditions.
