Gear coupling systems are costly to replace – and when equipment is down, production time and money are lost. Preventative maintenance is essential in caring for Falk couplings as well as those of other brands. To make sure your Flexible Pin Gear Coupling system runs smoothly, install it with as much alignment as possible. This will leave you some wriggle room for natural shifts later on.
One more thing to remember: Gear couplings are lubrication sensitive. Couplings are designed so that lubrication holes are near the gear coupling’s tooth mesh; this means there will be enough grease in the lube reservoir to create a smooth startup.
