ROTEX®
The ROTEX® claw coupling from KTR is an elastomer coupling which is characterized by an extremely compact design.
A high torque transmission is possible with this elastomer coupling without any problems despite low weights and mass moments of inertia. A long service life is achieved by machining on all sides and characterizes this compact KTR shaft coupling.
Torsional vibrations and shocks are skilfully damped in the drive train by an elastomeric ring between the coupling hubs and ensure good running characteristics. Various spiders with different degrees of hardness and temperature characteristics, adapted to your application, provide countless application possibilities in general mechanical and plant engineering. This is made possible, among other things, by the elastomeric spider material T-PUR®.
