MAINA
is the leading company for Gear
couplings production in Italy. It
is the preferred supplier for Steel
& Aluminum plants for VOEST
ALPIN industries (VAI). MAINA gear
couplings are manufactured from
forged steel ingots, machined and
heat-treated. Gear couplings are
of different types of steel - AISI
1045, AISI 4140, Nitralloy N/135/135M
- these are hardened and tempered
before being machined. To increase
the load capacity, in some types
of couplings, the gear teeth can
be surface hardened after machining
by thermal or thermo-chemical treatments
and, when required they can be ground.
Main treatments are induction tempering,
nitroxidation and gas nitriding.
