R+W has developed by far the most compact
elastomer coupling coupling on the market

For smooth running...

The problem is well-known: No appropriate drive elements for the new machine are available. One of the general requirements in mechanical and plant engineering is more and more focused on reliable and compact components. In addition, manufacturers of machine tools, industrial robots, and general machine design have considerably higher demands of shaft couplings. Not only in consideration of these demands but also of installation spaces that are getting smaller and smaller, R+W has developed by far the most compact coupling on the market. More...

Torque Limiter . The new backlash-free overload protection

Eliminating liability... 

In consideration of economic aspects limiting torques is a continuous challenge when developing Torque Limiters as an overload protection. The new generation of the backlash-free Torque Limiters has been designed for being used in power-transmission and servo applications. Important requirements such as being  backlash-free, short reaction times and long service life have been further optimized. The constructive benefit is ensured through fast availability of applications after a crash. More torque overload couplings...

The new generation of backlash-free,
press-fit Bellows Couplings

For an easy installation! 

Compact machine designs, installation spaces that are getting smaller and smaller, and quick component replace-ments for service and maintenance cases are the main requirements for the powertransmission and motion industry. Due to the continuing automation progress, highly dynamic, regulated drives are integrated in the manufacturing processes and reliable, customer-oriented couplings are needed. The metal Bellows Coupling has proven to be a versatile drive element in general mechanical engineer-ing and has been further developed by the coupling specialist R + W.
