There are 19 sizes of standard off-the-shelf ServoClass Couplings.

Operating speeds of up to 10,000 rpm, the 14 sizes in single and double disc coupling can handle torque ratings ranging from 0.5 to 250 Nm.

The new 650 model load adaptor features an extra heavy duty cast iron housing, 130,000 psi stress-proof steel shaft and heavy duty spherical roller bearings.

Mechanical couplings connect shafts so one can transmit rotational power to the other while accommodating some misalignment that is almost always present.

Zero-Max Wind Turbine Torque Limiters protect wind-turbine gearboxes and generators against peak loads, reversing torques, and grid short events. They are ideal as an upgrade replacement for existing wind turbines and for OEM applications. The Zero-Max torque limiter is engineered to mount directly to the generator shaft to avoid resonance concerns allowing for ease of…

A new ServoClass Coupling size in single and double flex models has been added to the Zero-Max ServoClass coupling line. Providing high torsional stiffness, these ServoClass couplings are designed to handle high speed reversing loads and precise positioning requirements in today’s demanding servomotor applications. The new size in single and double disc models handles bore…

Zero-Max Wind Turbine Torque Limiters protect wind-turbine gearboxes and generators against peak loads, reversing torques, and grid-short events. They are also an ideal upgrade replacement for existing turbines and for OEM applications. The Zero-Max torque limiter is engineered to mount directly to the generator shaft for easy installation and to avoid resonance concerns. Once installed,…

Zero-Max’s new 28-page brochure features a complete line of keyless locking devices for shaft to hub connections in a power transmission system. These devices are ideal for positioning and locking shaft components. They provide the best solution where keyways and tapers can weaken or cause excess wear to the shaft. Zero-Max keyless connections design benefits…

Zero-Max is now offering large size ETP Techno shaft locking bushings for bore sizes of 110, 120 and 130 mm (4.330, 4.724 and 5.118 inches). They are designed for locking components to large shafts with repeatable precision for applications requiring frequent mounting operations. They are ideal for locking into position gears, pulleys, sprockets and other…

Composite disc (CD) shaft couplings combine high-performance materials, design features, and precision to withstand the rigors of demanding servomotor systems. Precision machined of ASTM A 108 steel and 6061-T6 aluminum, the body components of these CD couplings are inherently balanced. With similar precision, the functioning components of CD couplings are made from precisely oriented and…

An ISO 9001:2008 certified manufacturing firms says of its wind turbine couplings now cover a broad range of wind turbine applications. Zero-Max Wind Turbine Couplings are available as an upgrade replacement for existing wind turbines and for OEM applications. Successfully tested under conditions simulating a 20-year load spectrum of continuous operation, the turbine couplings easily…

Plymouth, MN – Zero-Max, Inc.announces introduction of its Composite Disc Couplings for the wind turbine industry. “These couplings withstand extreme misalignment while remaining torsionally stiff and have passed the ‘hell hole’ test at Tehachapi, California Wind Farm,” reports James Motz, member of the Wind Team for Zero-Max. “The couplings were tested under conditions simulating a…
