The
Resilient Grid Coupling was invented by
Dr. James Bibby in 1917 and this product
transformed the Power Transmission
Industry.
Designed to provide effective shock
absorption and all the movement required
by the transmission industry it became the
platform on which many of the later
developments were based. The success of
the coupling principle is still one of the most
popular today and is still the standard
model for the larger industrial drives
particularly for the steel industry.
Naturally, the wide use of the coupling is
still evident in many of the steel mills,
power stations, coal mines and cranes
throughout the world and original spares
are still readily available.
