CENTAX - CENTA Power Transmission - Sweden

Company ProfileCENTA was established in 1970 and since thenhas proved to be the most innovative designer offlexible couplings and shafts for difficult torsionalvibration applications covering industrial and marinedrives worldwide.Today the international CENTA group of 10 companiesis one of the worlds leading manufacturersfor advanced power transmission products.Broad Know HowMore than 10 million CENTA couplings are installedworldwide thus providing an extraordinarilywide range of application knowledge ranging fromsimple drives to complex multi mass applicationsinvolving complicated torsional vibration calculations.Worldwide ServiceSubsidiary companies in 10 countries, licenseesin 2 and 30 national distributors provide engineeringsupport with local stocks of products andspares close to our customers worldwide.QualityOur QA-system was originally certified to ISO9001 in 1990 by several international inspectionand classification societies. About 65 type approvalshave been granted to CENTA products.Headquarters in GermanyTorsional vibration calculation and FEAEngineering with 20 off 3D-CAD work stationsAll new designs are rigorously tested and theirtechnical performance figures precisely measuredin our own development department on a varietyof dynamic test rigs that can induce torques of upto 750 kNm.The complete range of productsCENTA has 20 different types of flexible coupling,shafts and related products with numerousvariations providing ideal solutions for almostevery application, without the need to compromisesolutions due to product limitations. Theseflexible couplings and shafts cover a broadtorque range, from 10 Nm up to 600.000 Nm andthey are successfully applied in all kind of industries,ship propulsions and auxiliary drives.The next page shows examples of typical applicationsof our main areas of activities: Constructionequipment, agricultural machines, power generation,compressors, train drives, boat and shippropulsion and general machinery.Testbench for 750 kNmFinite Element AnalysisComputer controlled stock for 3700 palletsCX-SEC-4Catalog CX-SEC-01-04
