Couplings

Couplings create connections between drive shafts and driven shafts in order to transmit rotary motion and torque. For example, a coupling is used to combine the shafts of motors and transmissions into a single drive unit.

Alongside the primary purpose of transmitting torque, flexible elastic couplings also carry out other important tasks:

Compensating for shaft offsets and misalignments
Absorbing runout errors and axial motions
Damping vibrations and shocks

Couplings are used in a wide range of industrial applications. The spectrum ranges from simple drives to complex control, regulation and measurement applications.

There is a variety of types shown here; Rigid, Elastomer Jaw, Oldham, Bellows and Beam, as well as Double Loop Couplings and spare coupling spiders. More specific information on each type is inside the pages.
