These encoder products include fibre optic technology – making them suitable for mission-critical environments such as railway and harbour engineering, including modern ship loaders, container cranes, and high speed trains. Custom electronics and software have replaced old mechanical components. Please visit our website for more details on the Hubner-Giessen line of encoders supplied in the UK by BarTech.

Steel Crane Wheels

Valdunes, a specialist French engineering firm, are a leading industrial supplier to the European rail network. Their railway wheels and forged crane wheels are among the best products in the rail and steel industries. We offer a range of Valdunes products, both CroMo and steel, to supply our customers with steel crane wheels suitable for industries where mission-critical quality is essential. These products feature incredibly high levels of hardness, high wear resistance, and excellent impact resistance; and the forging process of each wheel ensures that the wheel has excellent material grain flow and a properly oriented structure. The products are also heat treated and immersion quenched. Please visit our website for more details on the Valdunes line of steel wheels supplied in the UK by BarTech.

Drive Couplings

BarTech supplies the German firm Malmedie's products for our drive couplings range. These leading products are used for applications where torque needs to be transmitted through drive shafts that are moving on all sides. Malmedie's drive couplings come with crowned teeth to achieve this effect. The gear-couplings range can even compensate for misalignments – whether angular, radial, or axial. And these products come in a wide array of variations to suit many different drives and a diverse range of industrial applications. Please visit our website for more details on the Malmedie line of drive couplings supplied in the UK by BarTech.
