IF OUR COUPLINGS

DON’T FIT YOUR APPLICATION... We’ll change our design.

Spring couplings have been a part of powertrains for more than 80 years.

Torsion Control Products (TCP) has developed a line of spring couplings

specifically for today’s modern diesel engines. These products address the

torsional characteristics unique to the diesel engine tier upgrades

that produce lower emissions and more power in smaller

packages with lower operating speeds.

Through the evaluation of many different applications using

Torsional Vibration Analysis, TCP engineers have created products

that address the needs of most applications. Whether it is in construction,

agricultural, mining, industrial or marine equipment, chances are we have

a product that can address the needs of your application. And if we don’t,

we will create a customized solution just for you.

SPRING COUPLINGS vs: DRIVE PLATES

Although not all applications require torsional compliance, TCP

engineers will evaluate your application and determine if a spring

coupling would provide an advantage over a conventional drive

plate. TCP has engineered and developed a comprehensive line of

spring couplings used in a wide variety of powertrain applications.

These devices typically offer the following advantages.

» Torsional vibration attenuation

» Resonance isolation

» Overload and shock load protection

» Noise reduction

» Improved bearing / gear life

» Increased system durability

ADVANTAGES OF USING TORSION CONTROL PRODUCTS

SPRING COUPLINGS:

» All steel construction for long life

» Lubricated and non-lubricated environments

» Space efficient design

» Minimal impact from temperature on performance or durability

» Performance can be optimized for a given application

» Multistage stiffness for optimized system tuning

» Controlled coulomb damping using “Smart Damping”

» Drop-in replacement for original drive plates, no spacers required

» Integral shaft support capability eliminates the need for additional

bearing support

Typical Ratings 20 to 20,000 lbs.-ft. (27 to 27,000 N-m)

Typical Environment Dry, lubricated, sealed or unsealed

Performance Consistent throughout the life of the product

Long Life TCP couplings continue to operate and attenuate driveline torsionals in even the roughest

applications

Tuning Capability using

“Smart Damping”

Through the use of our unique Smart Damping system, our products supply damping

when needed and pure isolation when damping is detrimental. This reduces torsional

spikes at start up, shut down, and transient events, improving durability and coupling

life.
