Flexible Couplings

FFS specializes in the precision selection of flexible input couplings, crucial for effectively linking diesel engines to pumps or transmissions. These couplings address the challenges of torsional vibrations and misalignment, ensuring a seamless transfer of power. With a keen focus on detailed factors like engine mounting, space constraints, and PTO design, FFS's approach integrates these components flawlessly into the complete driveline, from propulsion systems to Fi-Fi pumps. A torsional vibration analysis (TVA) is conducted to ensure compatibility and compliance with class rules, enhancing the operational lifespan and reliability of the system.
