RIGIFLEX
Manufacturer: KTRThe RIGIFLEX by KTR is a torsionally rigid, backlash-free steel lamina coupling that transmits torque while accommodating shaft misalignment.
The RIGIFLEX by KTR Systems is a steel lamina coupling. Packs of thin steel laminae connect the two coupling hubs and transmit torque in a torsionally rigid, backlash-free manner. Through the elastic deformation of the laminae the coupling simultaneously accommodates shaft misalignment without generating excessive restoring forces.
Torsional rigidity and freedom from backlash make the RIGIFLEX suitable for applications in which angular position and torque must be transmitted precisely. Because steel lamina couplings work without elastomer or wearing parts, they are low-maintenance and usable across a wide temperature range. The RIGIFLEX is the predecessor of the current RIGIFLEX-N.
REEL carries the RIGIFLEX in its trade programme. For existing installations the series can be identified and suitable replacements sourced; for new designs the successor series RIGIFLEX-N can be recommended.
