Flexible couplings, transmission elements for the pulp and paper sector
Jaure has established itself as both a global supplier and European leader in the production of flexible couplings and transmission elements to customers in the pulp and paper industry since 1958.
“It is part of our strategy of being a total solutions partner for our customers in stocking some of the best products and brands from around the world, and Jaure definitely falls into this category,” Ross Trevelyan, Business Unit Head: Product and Engineering at BI, comments.
Jaure couplings offer maximum torque capacity due to the optimum pitch diameter of the gears, which translates into increased reliability. The high permissible hub bore allows more favourable size selection of the coupling for a certain shaft diameter, which makes for a far more cost-effective product selection.
“Another product benefit is the high permissible loads for starting and short-circuit peak torque,” Trevelyan notes. Jaure’s significant investment in state-of-the-art CNC gear-cutting machinery and automatic charge systems also translates into the highest gear accuracy and quality.
The design, manufacture and sale of all Jaure gear couplings and drive components are integrated into the company’s quality system, in accordance with ISO 9001, as well as being certified by DET NORSKE VERITAS (DNV).
BI, part of the Hudaco Group, has consolidated its position as a leading distributor of bearings and power transmission products in Southern Africa by launching a new brand identity at the end of last year.
“Our aim is to become a proactive company providing excellent service to our customers to ensure we are the preferred supplier,” Burtie Roberts, CEO of BI, emphasises.
