Precision elastomer insert couplings offer technical advantages in a wide variety of power transmission applications. With the rigid jaw hubs machined from solid round bar stock, the torque density can be superior to that of almost any other type of backlash free flexible coupling, depending on the stiffness of the elastomer insert which is used. […]
Twin Spring Coupling’s flexible coupling technology for replacing U-joints and more
Industrial machinery runs 24/7 365, modern life demands a lot from this machinery and when the equipment is not running it costs money through lost orders, worker down time, and customer dissatisfaction. High speed couplings — couplings, beam and elastomeric, can only run at 4° misalignment before they cause equipment failure through increased vibration and […]
