Lightweight, advanced composite and silicone elastomer coupling for
fast-running engines.
The Carbotorq is a torsional elastic coupling, that combines advanced composite and silicone elastomer. It is an extremely lightweight coupling which not only dampens the torsional vibrations of the drive line, but also compensates for axial, angular and radial misalignments.
The patented Carbotorq consists of an elastic silicone element and two advanced composite membranes, which are joined by vulcanisation.
This high-tech coupling tunes the torsional vibration behaviour of the drive line, whereas the torsional stiffness of the heat resistant silicone elastomer element can be adjusted to the torsional vibration demands.
