The highly flexible coupling fulfills essentially two functions:
1. Shifting of resonance frequencies
2. Damping the amplitude of critical proportional vibrations
The primary customer benefits from use of a Voith highly flexible coupling in the driveline include:
- Increased availability of all drive components as the result of dampened torsional vibrations and shocks in the driveline
- Lower life cycle costs as the result of an extended service life for all components in the drive system
- Greater comfort as the result of fewer vibrations and less noise
Voith highly flexible couplings are used in the following equipment, among others:
- Railcars
- Locomotives
- Railway construction machinery and other special vehicles with diesel-hydraulic and/or diesel-electric primary and auxiliary drives
