Advantages: Protects shaft-support bearings by exerting consistently low reactive forces, even under large misalignments Homokinetic transmission – driving and driven shafts rotate at exactly the same speed at…
IoT and couplings: fairytale or the future?
by Mike Santora, Associate Editor Couplings connect driving elements to driven elements. But is there a connection beyond the mechanical? We asked four industry experts to give us…
Flexible shaft couplings for high temperature applications
By: Steven Elliot • OEP Couplings Shaft couplings face many hurdles: Excessive misalignment, vibration, and exposure to chemicals and dirt can all lead to premature coupling failure. One particularly pernicious foe is elevated ambient temperature, which de-rates and degrades most types of flexible couplings. Engineers often resort to rigid couplings, instead of flexible, in high-temp…
