Inc., located in Locust Valley, N.Y., supplies keyless shaft couplings to U.S. shipyards. Pri- mary benefits of the company's product include the elimination of stress concentrations caused by keyways, ease of shafting and coupling inter- changeability, and time savings during installa- tion and removal. The couplings use hydraulic pressure to mount onto straight shaft ends. Fi- nite element analysis and custom computer pro- grams are used to design the couplings.
