KTR – From 2000 to 2004

Radex steel lamina couplings had been part of KTR's production programme since 1990. This coupling design had been revised continuously, specifically when Dr. Norbert Partmann became head of the engineering department. Dr Partmann had been working for a manufacturer of wind power stations for many years and so he was in a position to contribute his experiences with this product range. In 2002, Radex-N was introduced which was a steel lamina coupling designed particularly for wind power stations. It was a backlash-free, maintenance-free all-steel coupling with laminas made from highly stiff spring steel having an extremely high torsional stiffness. The first coupling of that kind was assembled near Gronau in autumn 2000.
