This industry cleans and processes whole fresh fruit and vegetables into bags or corrugated cases for bulk distribution. Fruits and vegetables are also cut, processed and packaged in either bags or cartons before being flash frozen. This wide variety of finished products requires different power transmission solutions to meet the needs of manufacturers. Altra Industrial Motion meets the challenge with a selection of products including speed reducers, couplings, actuators, and clutch/brake modules.


| • | Elimination of alignment hole prevents debris and bacteria buildup |
| • | 18% shorter than standard coupling mounted reducers |
| • | Optional stainless steel shafts |
| • | Available with PosiVent® option |
| • | Available with Bost-Kleen™ and Stainless Bost-Kleen™ coatings |




Dura-flex couplings "split-in-half" element design allows for easy element installation/ replacement without moving connected equipment or disturbing the shaft connection. Spacer design can accommodate a large range of shaft spacing with few parts. Patented design minimizes bond stress for long coupling life. Highly flexible and able to accommodate shaft misalignment while minimizing vibration and preventing damage to connected equipment.
| • | Easy to assemble/replace |
| • | High Misalignment ratings |
| • | No maintenance/lubrication |
| • | Part-for-Part interchangeable with industry standard design |
| • | In-stock versatile spacer design can accommodate many configurations with few parts |

Sure-Flex is a TB Wood's original! Sure-Flex Couplings utilize a rubber (EPDM or Neoprene) or Hytrel™ thermoplastic flex element (sleeve) to transmit torque and accommodate shaft misalignments. Sure-Flex couplings have exceptional torsional flexibility, and the
4-way flexing action absorbs virtually all types of shock, vibration, misalignment, and
end float. Sure-flex couplings are an excellent choice when low cost, high flexibility, vibration damping, and easy installation are primary concerns.
| • | Easy assembly |
| • | Spacer, bushed hub, and clamping hub designs in stock |
| • | Flexible design accommodates misalignment and protects equipment |
