Rosta rubber spring elements have multiple functions in compact designs

Rosta machine elements are extremely versatile.

Renowned worldwide for its mastery of three types of technology – oscillating-conveyor technology, tensioning technology and rubber-suspension technology – Rosta brings its expertise to Canada through Rosta Inc. The company’s products feature rubber spring elements that are so versatile and expertly constructed that they can be used for multiple applications.

Recognizable for their blue colour, Rosta’s rubber spring elements each have the ability to fulfill several functions in one simple unit.

So many advantages and benefits

With an operating angle of plus or minus 30 degrees, as well as a wide range of torques and sizes available, the Rosta element is suitable for many applications that require resilient suspensions, elastic supports, cushioning mounts, or smooth guidance. These machine elements can work as torsional springs, pivot bearings, or anti-vibration mounts; they are also useful for pushing, pulling, or tensioning in machines.

Rosta elements are jointed springs, each with four pre-tensioned special rubber bodies between housings and an inner square profile offset by 45 degrees. They have no metallic contact or friction locations, and the inertia of the natural rubber provides energy damping during turning movements because of the flexing friction of the rubber bodies.

The durable construction and innovative design of these rubber spring elements enable users to realize significant savings. With their multiple functions, expensive bearing and damping components are not necessary, and the quiet, maintenance-free operation reduces operating costs with longer service intervals. Other significant advantages of investing in Rosta elements:

• Quicker assembly;
• Fewer stocking items;
• Higher productivity on the production line;
• Higher reliability; and
• Longer operational life.

Rosta features these elements in its free oscillating systems, guided shaker systems, gyratory sifters, tensioner devices, motorbases, anti-vibration mounts, and other products. These goods are supplied to companies in various Canadian industries, from agriculture and mining to food processing and transportation, and Rosta works closely with clients to make sure the solution meets their needs exactly.
