Damped, pneumatic stopper DBS-20/60
Damped vs Undamped stops
We offer a range of stops in our catalogue and one question people ask as they are designing their application is “which stop best meets our needs?” – to answer which, the pros and cons of both damped and undamped stops need to be considered. First we have to look at cost; if you are [...]

Kai Kuppling explains metal bellows couplings vs elastomer couplings
In this latest video from R+W's Kai Kupplung we see the differences between Metal Bellows Couplings and Elastomer Couplings - all of which you can buy through us once you've determined which is is that you need. Call today to speak to one of our sales engineers for more information on 01234 360689 [...]
Shaft couplings for every area of application
Mechanical engineering is multifaceted, as are its applications. Each application is unique and demands flawless machine design. Individual components in the plant therefore should be optimally selected for it – particularly vital components such as couplings. What does a coupling do? Simply put, a coupling is nothing other than a connection between [...]

Meet Kai Kupplung - the latest creation from the team at R+W, created to explain everything there is to know about couplings, the applications and variety of uses for couplings, and the intricacies of design.
Linear Chain from Grob
We are pleased to bring to our customers a new range of linear chain from Grob, a product which has proven widely popular and which offers variety in functionality when designing linear motion and automation. When space is limited, or screw jacks and linear actuators aren’t available in the specific size or functionality that [...]
Linear Chain application
This plate freezer was possible thanks to the linear chain range from Grob; as the UK distributor of Grob's linear product range we know that not every application suits traditional linear drive options - and if you have limited space but still require a push, as well as a pull, capability from your [...]
Wörner PND-65 Damped Stopper
Wörner’s unique, patented pneumatic damping stops have been used as original equipment by many of the top conveyor brands, offering compact, high dynamic force product positioning and stopping for pallet and line flow control for many years. Now Wörner have made their most popular product, the versatile DBS20/60 stop, even better with an all-new, patented [...]
Increasing plant uptime
Steel production is designed as a continuous process, which means that you need components you can rely on. One example which is historically known to require a lot of maintenance is the pairing of roller conveyor drives with torsionally flexible couplings. A maintenance free alternative which can reduce the down-time, and associated loss of production, [...]
