The MagnaDrive fixed speed coupling product line is targeted at constant speed applications for 2 to 4,000 horsepower motors with speeds up to 3,600 RPM. MagnaDrive fixed speed couplings incorporate an air gap to isolate the motor from the load.

There are three product families in the MagnaDrive Coupling product line:

Fixed Gap Coupling (FGC)

MagnaDrive’s standard coupling family is available in two styles depending upon the particular application. 

The MagnaDrive Fixed Gap Coupling (FGC) boasts the following features:

  • Lowest Total Cost of Ownership
  • Low maintenance
  • Efficient torque transfer
  • Accepts greater misalignment
  • Eliminates vibration transfer between motor and load
  • Increases seal and bearing life
  • Permits shock loading
  • Simple installation
  • Predetermined Fixed Air Gap
  • Suitable for High Starting Inertia / Torque
  • Slender Design fits also with Non-standard
  • Distance Between Shaft Ends (DBSE)
  • 3 – 4000 HP up to 3600 RPM

MagnaGuard Delay Start Coupling Family (MGD) 

Some applications, such as bulk handling conveyors, require a delayed-start capability in order to extend system equipment life. 

MagnaDrive’s advanced cushioned start and stop coupling family has all of the benefits of the standard couplings, plus:

  • Ability to delay full torque transfer
  • Cushioned start and stop
  • Design is Specific for a Cushioned & Delay Start
  • For applications with Pulsating and/or Shock Loading
  • Partially disengagement to protect equipment
  • Vertical and horizontal Installation
  • 10 – 1,000 HP up to 3600 RPM

MagnaGuard Torque Limiting Coupling Family (MGTL) 

In torque overload situations, the MGTL automatically disengages, shutting down the system and preventing damage or even destruction of the motor and driven equipment. When the jam is cleared, the coupling automatically resets itself to resume operation. 

MagnaDrive’s advanced overload protection coupling family has all of the benefits of the advanced cushioned start and stop couplings, plus:

  • Overload torque protection
  • Self-resetting
  • Design is Specific for a Cushioned & Delay Start
  • For applications with Pulsating and/or Shock Loading
  • Secure Coupling When There is Little Supervision
  • Advanced Overload Torque Protection
  • Self-Resetting
  • 30 – 1,000 HP up to 3600 RPM
