Ruland introduces new bellows couplings with enhanced misalignment capabilities

July 17, 2024 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

New bellows couplings from Ruland with increased misalignment capabilities

Ruland Manufacturing continues to expand its motion control coupling product line by introducing bellows couplings with increased misalignment capabilities. These new bellows couplings complement Ruland’s existing high-stiffness line by offering equivalent torque with greater misalignment flexibility. Ruland’s bellows couplings are lightweight, have low inertia, and can reach speeds up to 10,000 rpm due to the […]

New from Ruland: Inch-to-metric rigid couplings

July 10, 2024 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

Ruland one-piece inch-to-metric rigid coupling on shaft

Ruland Manufacturing now offers rigid couplings with inch-to-metric bores as a standard product, giving users a wider range of off-the-shelf couplings. This expansion is the latest addition to the company’s inch-to-metric, standard coupling product line that includes seven types of motion-control couplings and universal joints. Instead of re-machining or ordering custom-made couplings, using off-the-shelf, inch-to-metric […]

New from Ruland: Mountable shaft collars with face holes

December 14, 2023 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

Ruland shaft-collar-tapped_300dpi_2200px_PRINT

Ruland has released mountable shaft collars with face holes for applications where the shaft collar needs to be directly mounted to a component such as a pulley, sprocket, or metallic plate. The shaft collars are available with drilled face holes that give the user flexibility in mounting hardware, or tapped holes that match the standard […]

Solutions from Ruland: Beam couplings for robotics applications

June 20, 2023 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

3 Ruland beam couplings product shot on white background.

Ruland beam couplings are ideal for surgical, warehouse, and industrial robotics due to their increased torque and torsional stiffness and ability to accommodate all forms of misalignment. Ruland manufactures four-beam couplings for encoders and six-beam couplings for light-duty power transmission, such as connecting a stepper or servo motor to a lead screw. This allows robotic […]

Ruland: Expanded range of short rigid couplings

April 4, 2023 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

Ruland short rigid couplings_2000px_300dpi

Ruland has expanded its range of short rigid couplings to include keyways and step bore sizes. This expansion gives designers a wider variety of standard short rigid coupling options for applications with space or weight restrictions or where designers prefer a simplified assembly with fewer screws than traditional rigid couplings. Many servo-driven applications in industries […]

Expanded range of quick clamping shaft collars with clamping lever

January 31, 2023 By Mike Santora Leave a Comment

shaft-collar-image-with-written-descriptions-of-how-collar-moves

Ruland recently expanded their range of quick clamping shaft collars with clamping lever to include bore sizes up to 3 inches or 80 mm. These shaft collars allow the user to install, remove, or reposition the collar without the use of tools. The user simply turns the lever to loosen and tighten the collar on […]
