Why Switzerland needs industrial couplings
Switzerland is a high-income manufacturing economy with world-leading pharmaceutical, chemical and precision-engineering industries.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
Manufacturing & plant maintenance in Switzerland
Precision engineering buys high-grade components and tools.
In Switzerland, factories & oems and mro distributors buy industrial couplings from us mainly for pump and motor sets and conveyors and bucket elevators.
Who buys industrial couplings: Factories & OEMs · MRO distributors · Maintenance contractors · Machine shops
Mining & minerals in Switzerland
Mines and processing plants in Switzerland move ore on belt conveyors and bucket elevators around the clock. Spherical roller bearings, gear couplings, conveyor belts and idlers wear continuously, so reliable spares supply directly protects production.
In Switzerland, open-pit and underground mines and mineral processing plants buy industrial couplings from us mainly for crushers and mills and cranes and hoists.
Who buys industrial couplings: Open-pit and underground mines · Mineral processing plants · Quarries · Bulk ports
Cement & building materials plants in Switzerland
Cement producers around Switzerland replace elevator buckets, drag chains, belts and bearings on a schedule set by abrasion, so they buy spares in planned lots ahead of kiln and mill shutdowns.
In Switzerland, cement and clinker plants and grinding units buy industrial couplings from us mainly for compressors and cooling tower fans.
Who buys industrial couplings: Cement and clinker plants · Grinding units · Block and aggregate plants
Water supply & treatment in Switzerland
Water supply, desalination and treatment in Switzerland rely on pumps, gate and butterfly valves, strainers, pipes and fittings — equipment that must be pressure-tested and delivered to project schedules.
In Switzerland, water utilities and treatment plants buy industrial couplings from us mainly for pump and motor sets and conveyors and bucket elevators.
Who buys industrial couplings: Water utilities · Treatment plants · Irrigation schemes · Building services
Typical uses: Pump and motor sets · Conveyors and bucket elevators · Crushers and mills · Cranes and hoists · Compressors · Cooling tower fans.
