AURORA, Ill. (Nov. 16, 2015) – The management teams of CENTA Antriebe Kirschey GmbH and Christie & Grey Limited have announced a strategic global sales cooperation between their companies.

The agreement allows the two companies to join forces to engineer and strategically supply the industry’s premium “quiet drive” solutions—combining soft mounting systems, flexible couplings and intermediate drive shaft systems.

As a pioneer in innovation since 1914, Christie & Grey Limited manufactures vibration, noise and shock control solutions for worldwide marine, industrial and commercial applications.

Founded in Germany in 1970, CENTA Antriebe provides torsional coupling and drive shaft systems, offering more solutions to the marine, industrial, rail and energy industries than any other company worldwide.

CENTA believes the Christie & Grey product line will complement its current portfolio. This global agreement will enable CENTA and its worldwide partners and distributors to offer packaged solutions, including flexible couplings, drive shafts and anti-vibration mount systems to customers around the world. These packaged solutions will be supported by torsional vibration analysis combined with six degrees of freedom analysis of the complete elastic system in order to optimize the matching of the components.
