Testing slow speed, high torque applications

>Explains Michael Sykes, manager of both Centa's gear and renewables divisions and head of special projects: "Centawave will primarily be used to test wind turbine drives and offshore renewable products. It will also be extremely suitable for many test rig applications, ranging from petrol/diesel engines through to marine gearboxes and anything in between. It is a powerful and flexible coupling that is totally unique."

>The Centawave link coupling is so-called due to its functional principle of angular misalignment being compensated by a wave-like movement of its links that allows for uneven angular deflection at the same time.
