Class I High Performance Gear Couplings with fully crowned gear teeth are designed for
higher torque, higher speed, and higher misalignment to accommodate the increased
performance demands of modern, rotating equipment. Ameridrives, the first to apply the
fully crowned gear tooth concept to a gear-type coupling in the early 1950's, continues to
offer Amerigear Class I couplings with high torque and high performance characteristics in
relation to their size and weight. Standard and custom designs are manufactured
at Ameridrives to precision tolerances utilizing high quality steel and fasteners. Custom
designs are available to meet your requirements for weight or size limitations, high
temperature, high speed or extreme misalignment requirements. The gear tooth is fully
crowned and can be designed to handle extreme misalignment requirements. |
