iTOK
Highly flexible industrial couplings for flexibly mounted engines
The highly flexible iTOK coupling has been specially designed for applications requiring extremely low torsional rigidity. Furthermore it is particularly well suited to the compensation of axial and radial displacements of flexibly mounted engines.

Type D2C “Your design”
Type iTOK…F2K allows the detached element to be replaced without moving the coupled machines, provided that the shaft of the driven machine does not protrude from the coupling hub.
In type iTOK…D F2K, two coupling elements acting in parallel are used. It is therefore designed for the transmission of higher torques. This type enables the flexible coupling elements to be replaced without moving the coupled machines.
The iTOK...R TK design uses two coupling elements acting in series. This ensures a higher elasticity of the coupling.

The guiding principle of Designed to Customer is the recipe for success behind REICH. In addition to the catalogue products, we supply our customers with couplings developed to their specific requirements. The designs are mainly based on modular components to provide effective and efficient customer solutions. The special nature of our close cooperation with our partners ranges from; consulting, development, design, manufacture and integration to existing environments, to customer-specific production, logistics concepts and after-sales service - worldwide. This customer-oriented concept applies to both standard products and production in small batch sizes.

The highly flexible iTOK coupling has been specially designed for applications requiring extremely low torsional rigidity. Furthermore it is particularly well suited to the compensation of axial and radial displacements of flexibly mounted engines. The wide range of flexible coupling elements and adaptive designs provides standard solutions for a wide variety of different tasks. These can be complemented by specific customised designs on request (D2C).
The flexible element is designed to combine high torque transmission capacity and high displacement capacity with high speed capability. Its rigidity can be adapted to requirements by selecting different rubber qualities. The adaptive designs are based on the standard flywheel adapter dimensions according to SAE J 620. The iTOK coupling series comprises coupling sizes for a torque range from 600 Nm to 60 000 Nm.
The extremely low torsional rigidity allows for a safe and supercritical layout of the coupling. During start and stop operations, the resonance range is passed through quickly, and excellent de-coupling between the combustion engine and the driven machine is achieved over the entire operating speed range.
The iTOK coupling enables direct connection between the engine and the driven machine and is capable of compensating for misalignments resulting from the flexible mounting without requiring any additional components. Most versions even allow for radial disassembly. Restoring forces remain within the permissible limits despite good displacement capability, with a significant reduction in assembly effort and smooth running of the drive (noise reduction).
The iTOK couplings comply with ATEX explosion protection. They are certified according to Directive 2014/34/EU and may be used in explosive environments (categories 2 + 3). ATEX documentation to supplement the operating instructions is available on request.
The technical data applies only to the complete coupling or the corresponding coupling elements. It is the customer’s/user’s responsibility to ensure there are no inadmissible loads acting on any of the components. In particular, existing connections, e.g. bolted connections, must be checked with regard to the torques to be transmitted. If necessary, further measures, such as additional reinforcement with pins, may be necessary It is the customer’s/ user’s responsibility to make sure the dimensioning of the shaft and keyed or other connection, e.g. shrinking or clamping connection, is correct. All components that can rust are protected against corrosion as standard.
REICH have an extensive range of couplings and coupling systems to cover nearly every drive configuration. Customized solutions can be developed and manufactured even in small batches or as prototypes. In addition calculation programs are available for all necessary dimensioning.
