ARPEX - Model GIGA -Wind Coupling for Wind Turbine
The ARPEX GIGA is a powerful solution for wind turbines and integrated drive trains. It is a maintenance- and wear-free, double-joint disc coupling. Located between the rotor shaft and gear unit, the coupling protects the gear unit and drive train against bending and thrust loads from the rotor – thus significantly increasing the lifetime of bearings and gears. The coupling can transmit torques of up to 12,000,000 Nm and compensate axial, angular and radial misalignments. The ARPEX GIGA can be integrated in all wind turbine concepts (low, middle or high-speed applications). Optionally, it can be delivered as a single-joint coupling.
With an experience of more than 30 years in the field of coupling design for wind turbines and a comprehensive series portfolio, we can offer our customers market-driven coupling solutions for all requirements. The continuous development of our ARPEX couplings and the global manufacturing on state-of-the-art production facilities makes us a strong partner. Flender and Winergy - two strong brands under one corporate roof for the optimum wind turbine.

We use our patented conical bolting to connect the plate packs to the hub and spacer flanges. The conical bolting system, which has been tried and tested for decades, offers a reliable and easy-to-use bolting solution that ensures short assembly times. During service work, the conical bolting on the turbine can be easily disassembled and reassembled by using standard tools.
