Falk’s Grid, Gear, Disc and Elastomer CouplingsHave One Thing In Common . . .They Do The Job, No Matter What The Job Is.True Torque Fixed-Fill FluidCouplingThe difference is often in thedetails. The difference betweenfailure and long life, betweensmooth operation and downtime,between making – or losing –money on the factory floor.Falk understands that differentcouplings suit differentapplications. So we’ve designedand manufactured a variety ofstate-of-the-art couplings to meetvirtually any requirement.Whether you need moreflexibility, lower maintenance,high torque load protection,simple cost-effective performanceor something else, we can specifya coupling to suit you. Falk SpeedQuote software or a team ofqualified power transmissionspecialists can analyze yourapplication, and determine howspecial characteristics – includingbore fit options, stiffness, balance,shaft gaps, operating speed andenvironmental conditions – canaffect coupling selection.Lube RequiredGearTorsionally RigidGridDiscTorsionally SoftElastomerNo Lube RequiredFalk couplings are available instandard or dual purpose designs,with special configurations forunique requirements. And eachFalk coupling type is offered insizes and with torque and borecapacities to fill a whole host ofapplication parameters.At Falk, we know couplings.How important they are. Howreliable they need to be. Andhow the right coupling is onesizable detail that can make thecritical difference in youroperation.Softer Starts - Smooth Power Flow• 11 sizes, 5 types• Gear, disc, elastomer, and gridcoupling; hollow shaft and sheaveconnections• Delay, extended-delay, andnon-delay fill• Power ratings to 1 119 kW (1,500 hp)• Starting power adjustable from 40%to 250% of full-load torque• Overload protectionComplete Drive Systems from FalkUsed in a broad range of applications,Falk Fixed-Fill Fluid Couplings provideconsistently longer, smoother, time-controlledstarts with lower starting torquesand softer torque transfer. Ideal forconveyors using multiple drives, FalkFluid Couplings allow for staggeredmotor starting and load sharing.But Falk’s capability isn’t limited to just selling a component, we sell drivesystems incorporating the gear drives, couplings, backstops, brakes, guards& motors, all mounted on a bedplate, swing base or alignment freeassembly. Plus, our ready availability keeps you producing… even in themost remote places on Earth.© Copyright 2005. The Falk Corporation. All rightsreserved.
