TTT

Booth No. 219

Total Transportation Systems In- corporated will focus heavily on its

Kenmark Industries product line, which includes hydraulic jacking and skidding equipment and the unique Kenmark shiplift. TTS is currently involved in producing a skidding system for loadout and launch of the world's largest fixed jacket platform that is to be in- stalled in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition, the company recently commissioned a similar system for

Hyundai Heavy Industries in Ulsan,

Korea.

The coupling that pays off in extra cargo space.

Propulsion shafts connected by conven- tional flange couplings must be in- stalled via the deck. They result in space unusable for cargo storage — and require that the engine itself be moved farther forward than the designer's ideal location.

The OK coupling changes all that.

Since it needs no forged flanges but instead grips the connected shaft in a powerful interference fit, it permits propeller shaft replacement via the stern tube. The shaft itself can be kept short, and the engine moved further aft for maximum cargo room. The economics are obvious.

More than 13.000 OK couplings are in use aboard ships worldwide.
