Regal Rexnord is a leader in the manufacturing of industrial couplings for various industries. Two of their most popular couplings for the paper and board industry are the Falk® Lifelign gear couplings and the Falk ® Steelflex grid couplings. Both couplings have been engineered to provide exceptional performance and reliability in demanding operating environments.

The paper and board industry relies heavily on machinery that must perform reliably and efficiently to meet production demands. This is where Lifelign gear couplings come in. They are designed to provide high torque capacity, allowing them to transmit more power with potentially smaller sized couplings. This results in reduced maintenance costs and improved uptime, making them an ideal choice for paper and board manufacturers who need to optimise their production process.

One of the key benefits of Lifelign gear couplings is their ability to handle misalignment. Misalignment in machinery can cause premature wear and tear on equipment, leading to downtime and repairs. However, Lifelign gear couplings are designed to compensate for angular, parallel, and axial misalignment, ensuring that your machinery runs smoothly and efficiently. They also have a high shock load capacity, making them suitable for use in applications with frequent start-stop cycles or where sudden loads can occur.

Another popular choice for the paper and board industry is Steelflex grid couplings. These couplings are also engineered to handle high-torque loads, making them ideal for use in large machinery and equipment. They are also designed to handle misalignment, reducing the risk of premature wear and tear on equipment. This can result in improved equipment lifespan and lower maintenance costs.

An impressive selling point for Steelflex grid couplings is their ability to dampen minor vibration. Vibration in machinery can cause premature wear and tear on equipment, leading to a halt in the production process. However, Steelflex grid couplings are designed to absorb minor vibration, reducing the risk of damage to machinery, and improving overall equipment performance. They are also designed to operate at high speeds, making them suitable for use in paper and board manufacturing machinery that requires rapid movement and high efficiency.

Both Lifelign gear couplings and Steelflex grid couplings are designed to operate in harsh and demanding environments. They are built to withstand extreme temperatures, shock loads, and other conditions that can cause premature wear and tear on equipment. This makes them an ideal choice for the paper and board industry, where machinery must operate reliably and efficiently to meet production demands.

In addition to their exceptional performance and reliability, Lifelign gear couplings and Steelflex grid couplings are also easy to install and maintain. They are designed for easy access and disassembly, allowing for quick and efficient maintenance and repair.

Moreover, these couplings are engineered to operate seamlessly in the toughest and challenging environments. Thus, they provide remarkable performance and reliability, along with easy installation and maintenance, making them an optimal choice for paper and board manufacturers seeking to optimise their production process and boost their profitability.
