Vulkan Couplings Improves VULKARDAN F for Maritime

摘要

Vulkan Group, headquartered in Herne, Germany, has announced an innovative solution for maritime drive systems. The group's Vulkan Couplings Division launched the highly flexible VULKARDAN F coupling in 2016 as a successor to the VULKARDAN E. However, the company says it has continued to improve the coupling series, which is softer, shorter and considerably lighter than comparable products. Spurred by the success of the series, Vulkan Couplings has now further developed the VULKARDAN F. The size F 50 for 14- and 18-inch SAE flywheel connections (up to 6.5 kNm nominal torque) was introduced to the market at the end of 2019. Two further sizes, the F 60 (up to 26.2 kNm nominal torque) and F 62 (up to 32.5 kNm nominal torque) for 21 to 24 inches with SAE flywheel connections, are currently under development and will soon be released to the global market.
