Bellows couplings from Ruland are highly accurate, zero backlash and maintenance free

Bellows couplings from Ruland are highly accurate, zero backlash and maintenance free

Ruland Manufacturing has expanded its line of bellows couplings to include an outer diameter of 57 mm, allowing for larger bore sizes and increased torque and torsional stiffness capabilities. Designers prefer to specify bellows couplings in servo driven systems due to their high accuracy and repeatability. This size expansion now allows for bore sizes up to 32 mm in a clamp style design with or without keyways.

New multi-stage mag-drive centrifugal pumps provide more pressure at low flows

New multi-stage mag-drive centrifugal pumps provide more pressure at low flows

The established and successful Finish Thompson DB Series range of leak-free, magnetically driven centrifugal pumps has been extended following the addition of two new multi-stage pumps. Available from pumping specialist Michael Smith Engineers these new models have two impellers (the MSDB2) or three impellers (the MSDB3). This means they can generate more pressure at low flows, which means in some applications they can be used as a smaller, less expensive pump.
