Newsletters & case studies
Field-proven drive solutions from the plant floor — how Fluidomat fluid couplings start motors softly, protect machines and turn speed control into real energy savings across power, cement, fertilizer and bulk-handling drives.
Drive solutions, proven on the ground
Each story comes from a real installation. Browse our newsletters for the engineering thinking — and the measured results — behind Fluidomat couplings.
DOL starting of motor with a Fluidomat coupling
A star-delta starter is normally used on a cage motor to reduce the starting-current kick. With a fluid coupling, the motor can start direct-on-line with a single, fast-decaying current kick instead.
Read the noteDrive solution for conveyor drives
How Fluidomat Scoop Control SC couplings deliver controlled, load-shared starting on conveyor drives — smoothing the start-up of long, high-inertia belts.
Read the storyDrive solution for PA fan drives
Large fan drives running on HT (high-tension) motors face recurring start-up and control problems. See how a Fluidomat coupling tackles them on primary-air fans.
