Ruland expands range of bellows couplings
Ruland Manufacturing has expanded its line of bellows couplings to include an outer diameter of 2-1/4-in. (57 mm), allowing for larger bore sizes and increased torque and torsional stiffness capabilities. Designers prefer to specify bellows couplings in servo-driven systems due to their high accuracy and repeatability. This size expansion now allows for bore sizes up […]
NBK’s anti-vibration coupling with high rigidity
Many types of shaft couplings are used with various production equipment, which requires high productivity. High-torsional stiffness couplings such as Disk type (Pic1) and Bellows type (Pic2) are primarily used in applications that require high positioning accuracy. On the other hand, recently, the speed response frequency of servomotors is increasing (Fig1), the vibration by hunting […]
Ruland clamp style four beam coupling
Ruland PCMR19-3-3-SS is a clamp style four beam coupling with 3mm x 3mm bores, 19.1mm OD, and 22.9mm length. It is machined from a single piece of material and features two sets of two spiral cuts. This gives it higher torque capacity, lower windup, and larger body sizes than single beam couplings. PCMR19-3-3-SS is zero-backlash […]
KTR couplings in pump and compressor applications
Pumps and compressors make up about one-third of energy consumption in industry. Consequently, the market is big with the portfolio ranging from miniature laboratory pumps to large-scale plants for petrochemistry. An essential function of the coupling is the ability to compensate for displacements in the drive train. That is why double-cardanic couplings are often used. […]
Ringfeder complete coupling systems for heavy-duty cranes and hoists
In a new video from Ringfeder, the company explores the types of couplings that excel in crane and hoist applications. Ideal for heavy-duty equipment, barrel couplings are highly robust and torsionally stiff. They also compensate for misalignment and are easy to assemble. The Ringfeder offering includes bore sizes up to 550 millimeters and torques up […]
Ruland aluminum MBCK33-14-8-A bellows coupling
Ruland MBCK33-14-8-A is a clamp bellows coupling with 14mm x 8mm bores, 33.3mm OD, 42.9mm length, and 5mm x 2mm keyways. It is zero-backlash and has a balanced design for reduced vibration at high speeds. MBCK33-14-8-A is comprised of two anodized aluminum hubs and a stainless steel bellows. The bellows are able to flex while […]
Ringfeder elastomer jaw couplings
The rotationally resilient couplings of the RINGFEDER series GWE, TNM, TNS, and TNB are puncture-proof and flexible in all directions and therefore compensate for angular, parallel, and axial shaft misalignments of the connected machines. Misalignments can be caused for example by inaccurate assembly, heat movements, or settling phenomena. Avoiding torsional vibration By virtue of the […]
