Key Is The Patented Disc Design. The key to the high performance capabilities of the CD coupling lies in the Composite Disc pack. Everything about this unique part contributes to its high performance characteristics. The shape, the cutting process, the material used, the order and the orientation of the layers, and even the coating used have an important significance.
Zero-Max has been perfecting this design since the mid-80’s and has accumulated a vast database of solutions. Using finite element analysis (FEA), the disc design can be easily modified along with changes in the composite material. Custom disc designs (manufactured on state-of-the-art laser cutting machines) can add to or lessen coupling flexibility or increase strength and stiffness as required for the particular application. There are over 40 standard models and sizes of CD couplings for most applications. For applications outside this range, CD Couplings can be designed and produced cost effectively within your delivery requirements.
Design, Analysis, Testing Programs, and Production Capabilities are all geared toward supplying the correct coupling at the lowest cost and in the shortest lead time.
The Zero-Max test laboratory is capable of all types of static and dynamic testing to insure that the design specifications are met.
Production of CD Couplings is executed with modern CNC machinery, which provides components with the accuracy required for demanding applications. Quality control of all manufacturing processes, guarantees that CD Couplings will meet strict performance requirements.
