Carrying the load with MagnaDrive Couplings

MagnaDrive has developed both an Adjustable Speed Drive and a shaft coupling that employ powerful rare-earth permanent magnets to transmit torque across an air gap with no physical connection between the motor and driven equipment.

The ASD is designed for variable-speed applications such as pumps, fans and blowers.

The magnetic coupling is intended for constant speed applications.

MagnaDrive Couplings provides several advantages over conventional fluid couplings including low cost, easy installation, efficient torque transfer without vibration, overload torque protection, cushioned start and stop, misalignment tolerance and low maintenance.

A unique benefit of the MagnaDrive coupling is its performance in torque overload situations such as material jams or excess weight. The coupling automatically disengages, shutting down the system and preventing damage or destruction of the motor and driven equipment. When the jam is cleared, the coupling automatically resets to resume operation.

The MGTL Coupling transfers torque for applications requiring 10 to 2,000 horsepower motors.

The MGD Coupling, shifts to its lower-torque position,during a load seizure and the load is partially disengaged. This provides additional mechanical cushioning of a load seizure. The MGD can be installed in horizontal or vertical positions, and can operate in forward or reverse direction of rotation. 2 -2000Hp applications.
