Benefits of Beam Coupling and Stainless Steel Gear Pump

Image
Most couplings fall into one of two categories: stiff or flexible. Rigid couplings are utilized in situations where exact alignment is critical, whereas flexible couplings, such as Beam couplings , are used in applications where some misalignment is acceptable. A beam coupling, also known as a helical coupling, is constructed of a single piece of material that has been made flexible by removing material in a helical pattern along its length. A beam coupling, like other couplings, is designed to transmit torque between two shafts, but unlike a rigid coupling, it can handle angular misalignment, parallel offset, and even axial motion of one shaft relative to the other. Beam couplings are made from a number of materials, including titanium and acetal, with stainless steel and aluminum being the most prevalent. Because of its small weight, aluminum beam couplings are well suited for applications requiring a high level of responsiveness. Stainless steel, on the other hand, has a higher ma...

What you Should be Aware of Regarding Gear Coupling?

  A gear coupling is designed to provide a mechanical link between drive components using a gear mesh in a pattern of either misalignment or full alignment. It is used for transferring power and torque between two shafts without any loss. Gear mesh makes a full connection smoothly and completely in order to prevent hazards from losing any joints. The Advantages of a Gear Coupling Gear couplings have several advantages over other couplings. ●     Misalignment capability of 4 to 5 degrees. ●     exceptional torsional stiffness. ●     very high torque density. ●     offering flexible movement between joints. ●     connecting mechanical drives which are not collinear. What about the functioning of a gear coupling? It basically works by linking two shafts to transfer torque and power between them. The coupling has two flexible joints, each of which is fixed to each shaft. And these joints are...
