ARCUSAFLEX ® + electromagnetic clutch
Coupling unit comprising a highly flexible rubber disc coupling and electromagnetic clutch
The ARCUSAFLEX® coupling (abbreviation: AC) is a highly torsionally flexible flange coupling with an axial plug-in facility,
providing a torsionally soft connection between an internal combustion engine and a driven machine.
Various vulcanizates to suit the application and operating conditions effectively dampen torsional vibrations and ensure the reliability
and durability of the system.
Combined with the electromagnetic clutch (abbreviation: EMC), the switchable coupling unit enables load-free engine start-up
and flexible connection and disconnection of the drive train. The separation of the drive train can ensure a high level of safety,
especially in critical situations.
This combination of performance, safety and flexibility makes the coupling unit the ideal solution for demanding applications. Various
designs allow for axial and radial force absorption, for example, without causing additional loads on the fl ywheel/crankshaft
bearing.
The coupling unit can be designed to connect a drive shaft or to be fitted with a shaft.
Hybrid applications are becoming increasingly important and
common
- REICH has the optimum solution for you with the AC+EMC!
