Screw Type Couplings
Walther Praezision produces successful quick coupling systems that can effectively replace the traditional screw type couplings in various purposes. The German coupling and docking system manufacturer Walther Praezision is based in Haan and has 27 representatives for its products worldwide. Walther Praezision Quick Coupling Systems offers coupling and docking systems like screw type couplings and all other coupling systems for various purposes and applications. They supply the automotive and steel industry, the machine tool industry as well as the offshore and ship technique branch. They have convinced international clients for years by our high-quality work, by elaborated and innovative technique and the reliable service. The customers tell that they appreciate the high standards in design, technical development and competence of the screw type couplings and all other products.The quick release coupling system technology is used in the transportation industry, for example in rail vehicles. These systems make quick connection and disconnection of media lines possible. Partly, these connection and disconnection processes are possible without media losses. That is why these quick coupling systems are a real effective alternative to traditional screw type couplings. Walther Praezision has yielded experience in this sector for decades. The new systems and the screw type couplings are used in the transport industry for the following applications: for carriages, for hydraulic brakes, for energy supply, cooling and climate control. Walther Praezision products fulfil various requirements, for example a leak and squirt free connection, automatic lock, protection against dirt in stainless steel design and a radial safety lock to avoid disconnection by vibration. As Walther Praezision is well-known for its innovative power, they have recently come on the market with a number of new developments especially for rail vehicles.
Screw type couplings and the quick coupling systems are also applied in the offshore and ship technique sector, where safety in operation, dependability and economic efficiency are factors that are highly relied on. In these sectors, the products especially show their outstanding quality. For offshore applications, for example for oil and gas platforms and subsea systems, safety in operation is extremely important. Also, to a large extend, maintenance-free products are a must. Walther Praezision coupling systems offer high-pressure suitability and special chemical resistance against aggressive sea water. Therefore, they can be used in hydraulic control circuits of production or in workover and intervention systems. In this field of application, mono-couplings with self lock such as plug couplings or screw type couplings are used.
