Magnetic couplings from Miki Pulley
Miki Pulley’s Magnetic Couplings transmit torque from one shaft to another using a magnetic field rather than a mechanical connection. These Magnetic Couplings are another new class of power transmission solutions from Miki Pulley. The coupling design incorporates rare earth neodymium magnets in the assembly to transmit torque. This model simply transmits torque by pairing […]
Mountable shaft collars from Ruland
Ruland has released a new line of mountable shaft collars with flats and tapped holes or tapped holes only in the outer diameter, allowing for easy mounting of shaft collars to each other or adjacent assemblies. Clamp style designs are used allowing for benefits such as not marring the shaft, indefinite adjustability, and high holding […]
CD Couplings From Zero-Max With High Power Density Facilitate Smaller Machine Footprint Designs
The quest for smaller machine footprints continues as designers seek new ways to reduce machine size while increasing output. The Zero-Max CD coupling pictured provides precise and reliable shaft connections in less space than other couplings. It operates without fatigue for reliable 24/7 operation required in the latest machine designs. Key to this CD coupling […]
