Ringspann Corporation has unveiled its latest innovation – the Universal Joint Program. Designed to provide unparalleled efficiency and durability, the program offers a range of universal joints that promise seamless power transmission and flexibility across multiple industries.

If you want to identify one trend in the field of shaft-hub-connections, this is it: The use of frictional shrink discs is gaining traction in mechanical and plant engineering. The main reason for this is probably that - in contrast to positive shaft-hub-connections with a keyway - considerably higher torques can be transmitted and many designs can therefore be made smaller. This correlates with the desire of many users for increasingly compact drives. A more detailed analysis also reveals that at present it is primarily shrink discs in a two-part design that have caught the eye of designers of industrial drive systems.
