Quite often, the collection of precise data in drive technology applications can be problematic. Data monitoring in a rotating drivetrain is difficult because a direct networking cable connection is often not an available option. Nothing sends shivers down the spine of for example, a production line manager or a system integrator like uncertainty.

A leading oil and gas OEM needed a torque-dense disconnect coupling for pumps utilized at hydraulic fracturing sites. The truck-mounted pumps are driven by energy efficient electric motors instead of traditional diesel engines. The coupling is installed between a 5,000 HP motor, turning at 1,800 RPM, and the pump.
