Refiner drives
Smooth acceleration and overload protection for disc and conical refiners in stock preparation.
Fluid couplings for the Paper & Pulp industry.
From stock preparation to the dryer section, Fluidomat couplings start, protect and control the rotating equipment that keeps paper and pulp mills running — proven in mills across India and abroad, including Phoenix Pulp & Paper, Thailand.
Overview
A loyal bond with the paper & pulp industry.
A paper mill runs on a fleet of demanding drives — refiners that load heavily on start-up, large fans and abrasive stock and water pumps that run around the clock. Fluidomat couplings let motors start on no load, decay the starting-current kick in seconds and protect every drive from overload, while variable-speed scoop couplings turn fan and pump speed control into real energy savings.
Since 1971 our couplings have been specified across the sector — from Century Pulp & Paper and Orient Paper Mills to Tamil Nadu Newsprint & Papers — and exported to mills such as Phoenix Pulp & Paper in Thailand.

Applications
Where our couplings work in a paper mill
Stock & water pumps
SC scoop couplings vary flow by speed — cutting wear and power on abrasive stock duties.
Fans & blowers
No-load start, fast current decay and variable-speed energy saving on ID, FD and vacuum fans.
Chippers & conveyors
Continuous declutching, load sharing and jerk-free acceleration on chip and material handling.
