Floating Shaft CD® Couplings are a torsionally stiff, no backlash option for connecting long distances between shaft ends. They can often be a zero-backlash alternative to Cardan Shafts….
The trend in industry to process more material, faster and more efficiently calls for a high torque, high misalignment, low inertia servo coupling, with minimal compromise to torsional…
When Parker Hannifin, Mainz-Kastel, Germany was looking to replace the steel components of its RSD quick couplings with one single injection molded component that reduced the number of…
In an ideal world, multiple components could be produced in a single piece, or coupled and installed in perfect alignment. However, in the real world, separate components must…
