Hydrodynamic couplings are fluid coupling devices used in power transfer of mechanical devices involved in heavy industrial machinery, mining & automotive equipment. Various types of mechanical device are conveyor systems, centrifuges, mixers, crushers, shredders, bucket wheel excavators, shaft generators, and drum drives etc. The device has experienced intense consumption by replacing the mechanical clutch systems which were subjected to abrasions. Other pivotal reason for the rapid emergence of hydrodynamic couplings market is that they can operate at variable speeds, have controlled start-up without experiencing shocks & vibrations during power transmission load intervals. The product also employs low input & maintenance costs. Revenue generated from sales of hydrodynamic coupling market is expected to increase at a moderate pace over the forecast period.

The product can also be classified based on operating types:
- Constant Speed Fluid Couplings- used for low power starts, overload protection & gentle acceleration
- Drain Type- similar to previous type with a clutch like provision added
- Variable Speed Fluid Couplings- used for adjustable power start-ups & variable acceleration
A product differentiation can be done on the basis of design principle as well
- Control Principle – which is primarily of two types single system low accuracy (TP), high control accuracy (TPK)
- Flow Circuits Configuration- which is of two types Single Circuit Coupling & Double Circuit Coupling
- Operating Medium- either Water or Mineral Oil
- Operating Supply of Fluid- via External, Separate with Cooler, Integrated in-housing with cooler
The global hydrodynamic couplings market can also be segmented on the basis of end use application as
- Automobile
- Mining
- Industrial
- Chemicals
- Defence
- Rail & Marine Systems
- Others
Hydrodynamic Couplings Market Dynamics & Trends
