KWD Shaft Couplings
KWD shaft couplings are couplings from a German manufacturer designed for the transmission of high torques and speeds.
They are available in various series and designs from the smallest elastic couplings to the largest gear, disc and special shaft couplings. A separate group consists of starting hydrodynamic couplings used for smooth start of the driven equipment.
ELKU-N (Elastic)
Typical Applications
KWD shaft couplings are designed for connecting two shafts in all industries.
They are used on many machines, from small precision instruments and machines to heavy drives in conveyor systems, cranes and other highly stressed drives in the steel, paper, chemical and rubber industries.
