The RINGSPANN WKE-G flexible coupling is a power transmission component that connects two shafts and transmits torque without angular backlash, thanks to its elastomeric element. It is used in applications where positioning accuracy and compensation of small misalignments are critical, such as servomotors, spindles and numerical control systems. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Argentina as exclusive representative of RINGSPANN.

The WKE-G designation is read by coupling type and size: the WKE-G series corresponds to a zero-backlash flexible coupling, and the number that follows indicates the construction size. For example, WKE-G / size 5, WKE-G / size 7 or WKE-G / size 19 refer to different torque capacities and permissible shaft diameters. The G suffix identifies the version with elastomeric element. Each size is selected according to the nominal torque and the dimensions of the shafts to be connected.

In Argentine industry, these couplings are used in machine tools, machining centers, automation equipment, industrial printers and positioning systems. They also appear in testing and laboratory applications, where the absence of backlash is decisive for repeatability. They are common in food, pharmaceutical and automotive plants, where precise, low-maintenance transmission is required.

To select a WKE-G, take into account the nominal and maximum torque, the rotation speed, the diameter and type of shaft fit, and the permissible misalignment. Installation requires aligning the shafts within the manufacturer's tolerances and respecting the tightening torque of the fastening screws. Lubrication is not necessary for the elastomeric element, but the condition of the elastomer should be checked periodically. Forced assembly can damage the coupling and affect transmission.

Zero-backlash flexible couplings from different brands can be interchanged if shaft dimensions, torque and service conditions match. However, each manufacturer defines its own sizes and performance curves, so equivalence must be validated with the technical data. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on interchangeability.
