Products and Services
VULKAN portfolio to Industry and Energy sectors includes Flexible Couplings, Fluid Couplings, Rigid Couplings, Brake Systems, Rail Clamps, Backstops and Mounts, as well as driving tailored solutions.
At applications such as BELT CONVEYORS, STACKERS AND RECLAIMERS, our FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS are generally installed onto high speed shaft of the drive train and onto low speed shaft, between the gearbox and the pulley. While our BACKSTOPS AND BRAKE SYSTEMS are properly selected to withstand the most critical working conditions to which the conveyor will be subjected to.
And about applications such as CRUSHERS, MILLS, SEPARATORS AND AGITATORS, that are typical heavy duty machinery whose drives are characterized by shock loads and dynamic displacement of large masses with big inertias. FLUID COUPLINGS for soft starting of the machinery, GEAR COUPLINGS for low speed shaft applications and ELECTROHYDRAULIC SERVICE BRAKES are typical products used for these applications.
NEW FLEXOMAX GBNX COUPLING
This is the new FLEXOMAX GBNX coupling, with particularly easy installation and maintenance , that complements the traditional FLEXOMAX GBN line of flexible and torsionally elastic couplings for torque transmission. Its compact design makes it the ideal choice for application in limited spaces, connecting two shaft ends and compensating for axial, angular, and radial misalignment. Moreover, it absorbs impacts and vibration from the driven or drive machines.
NEW VCLAMP - RAIL CLAMP
VULKAN RAIL CLAMPS have been completely redesigned This product line has innovations both conceptually and technologically in terms of materials, making the product more competitive and adding more digitalization. One of the main conceptual innovations has been modifications to the leverage system which is now by wedge, allowing a significant increase in the opening capacity (GAP) between the jaws and the rail, achieving now 10 mm. Braking force: 60 - 400 kN
