MagnaDrive couplings and Adjustable Speed Drives replace the physical connection between motor and load with a gap of air. This air gap eliminates harmful vibration, wear and tear, enhances energy efficiency, increases motor life and protects equipment from overload damage.
"The MagnaDrive Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) is designed for variable speed applications while the MagnaDrive Coupling line is designed for constant torque applications." (MagnaDrive Website).
The MagnaDrive coupling product line is targeted at constant speed applications of 2 to 4000 horsepower motors with speeds up to 3600 RPM. The couplings incorporate a gap of air that separates the motor from the load.

• No-contact power transfer - Eliminates vibration, reduces noise, tolerates misalignment, provides overload protection, extends motor and equipment life and reduces overall maintenance costs • Energy efficiency - Up to 70% audited energy savings in various installations • Precise process control - Improves product quality and optimizes process rates • Soft start/stop - Reduces the motor's start-up power demands and the resulting brown-outs, alleviates paying for peak power, allows downsizing of motors, increases motor life and reduces maintenance • Simplicity and ruggedness - System can be maintained in-house and used in harsh conditions
The KPM Supersleeve™ may cost the same or a few dollars more than an OEM supplied shaft sleeve, but you really can notice the difference. Typically change outs for shaft sleeves are 2 to 3 times less frequent when you use the KPM Supersleeve™! This will shorten the length of downtime on your equipment.
It depends upon the environment they're in. We’ve had great success while working with many of the toughest environments in the mining industry. We've found asking the right questions makes a tremendous difference with regard to the coating solution we supply. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say our Supersleeve™ line has lasted 2 to 3 times longer than OEM supplied shaft sleeves in most situations.
Standardization has played an important part in our companies' growth, it means that our company supplies parts with a high quality standard. We can bid on projects now that we couldn't bid on before.
