The flexible joint mounted on the encoder shaft grants a very good coupling, without parallel and angular mis-alignment, and avoids overloads, which can damage the bushings life. Elap measuring wheels are fit for the use in touch with metal, steel profiles, varnished surfaces, plastic materials, paper, cardboard, wood, fabrics and leather; they offer an excellent resistance to oil, fuels, ozone and environmental agents.

Thanks to their small size – 21 mm square section case – the linear potentiometers seris PT2S can be profitably employed for those applications where limited dimensions are a critical factor. Two ball joints are provided at both ends for air fixing. The series strokes range from 25 to 150 mm. The electrical connection is granted by means of M12 connector. The stout extrused aluminium case grants a high protection degree against environmental agents.

The linear motion potentiometers series PN231 have a 31 mm square section housing, 8 mm diameter shaft and two fixing ball joints at the ends.

With three moving components the unit is able to align with any tensile or bending load applied to the hose. Thus reducing the MBR and loads transferred to the hose or connected components. Temperature range: up to+120°C (using High Tech seal material) Dimensions: 1'' ½ - 2''-3'' (and larger on specific request) Design Pressure : 5.000 psi - 7.500 psi - 10.000 psi (and higher, over on specific request)

The Kinematic chain system is a building technology which creates an elastic connection between the decks both longitudinally and transversally thus ensuring a "hinge" behaviour against flexural stresses in the connection area. This system allows all the longitudinal deformations of the deck resulting from shrinkage, creep or temperature changes, to focus on one point, usually the centreline of the engineering structure or by one of the abutments. The Kinematic chain system thus allows to exploit all the advantages offered by continuous structures (seismic behaviour, reduction in the number of joints without giving up those offered by the statically determinate structures consisting of simple beams, design and construction simplicity). It is suitable both for new and existing engineering structures, especially when their seismic adjustment is necessary. It allows to manage longitudinal seismic stresses transferred to the bridge deck/piers interface.

TYPES: BETA

These joints are normally made up of an elastomeric structure in which, by a curing process or other technological process, metal profiles are inserted to change, at set points, the stiffness or bearing capacity of the elastomeric structure. There are two main sub-groups depending on the mechanism which is used to obtain the expansion/shrinkage capacity of the joint, namely: by elastic deformation, with shear stress, of appropriately prepared suitable elastomeric areas; by elastic deformation of the elastomeric profiles the designed geometry of which is changed by normally flexural stresses. A characteristic of this type of joints is the presence, at the level of the congested surface, of a series of transverse gaps required for the development of the necessary elastic deformations. TYPES: RAN 50 S GPE 50/100/150 GPE 200/250 GPE 300 GPE 400 RAN P ALFA 25

These joints are obtained by opposing two finger-shaped metal elements: each is fixed to its head, thus ensuring, thanks to a suitable interpenetration, continuity of the carriageway in case of expansion/shrinkage. Their static layout can act as a beam on two bearings when the finger rests on both heads or as a shelf when it overhangs a head. A specific device is needed, usually a gutter, to ensure the gap watertightness. Special attention should be paid to the alignment during the installation phase and to the head anchoring, especially in the case of shelf layout. Except for special arrangements, this type of joint permits limited transverse displacements. TIPOLOGIE: SFE 90/65 GP FE C

They permit displacements and rotations between abutted structural parts, ensuring continuity of the carriageway and watertightness. They come in a wide range of formats, each format having a certain movement range to accommodate, with only the types of materials used remaining constant.
