Product Description
Custom Precision Clamping Type Flexible Disc Coupling Jaw Coupling Oldham Coupling with CNC Machining
Product Description
Coupling refers to a device that connects 2 shafts or shafts and rotating parts, rotates together during the transmission of motion and power, and does not disengage under normal conditions. Sometimes it is also used
as a safety device to prevent the connected parts from bearing excessive load, which plays the role of overload protection.
Couplings can be divided into rigid couplings and flexible couplings. Rigid couplings do not have buffering property and the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 axes. It is required that the 2 axes be strictly aligned. However, such couplings are simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost, convenient in assembly and disassembly, and maintenance, which can ensure that the 2 axes are relatively neutral, have large transmission torque, and are widely used. Commonly used are flange coupling, sleeve coupling and jacket coupling.
Flexible coupling can also be divided into flexible coupling without elastic element and flexible coupling with elastic element. The former type only has the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 axes, but cannot cushion and reduce vibration. Common types include slider coupling, gear coupling, universal coupling and chain coupling; The latter type contains elastic elements. In addition to the ability to compensate the relative displacement
of 2 axes, it also has the functions of buffering and vibration reduction.
Our leading mainly including universal couplings, drum gear couplings, elastic couplings etc.

Coupling performance
1) Mobility. The movability of the coupling refers to the ability to compensate the relative displacement of 2 rotating components. Factors such as manufacturing and installation errors between connected components, temperature changes during operation and deformation under load all put CHINAMFG requirements for mobility. The movable performance compensates or alleviates the additional load between shafts, bearings, couplings and other components caused by the relative displacement between rotating components.
(2) Buffering. For the occasions where the load is often started or the working load changes, the coupling shall be equipped with elastic elements that play the role of cushioning and vibration reduction to protect the prime mover and the working machine from little or no damage.
(3) Safe, reliable, with sufficient strength and service life.
(4) Simple structure, easy to assemble, disassemble and maintain.

How to select the appropriate coupling type
The following items should be considered when selecting the coupling type.
1. The size and nature of the required transmission torque, the requirements for buffering and damping functions, and whether resonance may occur.
2. The relative displacement of the axes of the 2 shafts is caused by manufacturing and assembly errors, shaft load and thermal expansion deformation, and relative movement between components.
3. Permissible overall dimensions and installation methods, and necessary operating space for assembly, adjustment and maintenance. For large couplings, they should be able to be disassembled without axial movement of the shaft.
In addition, the working environment, service life, lubrication, sealing, economy and other conditions should also be considered, and a suitable coupling type should be selected by referring to the characteristics of various couplings.

Indicators of Wear or Damage in Disc Couplings
Disc couplings can exhibit signs of wear or damage over time due to factors like misalignment, overloading, or general usage. Detecting these issues early is crucial for preventing further damage. Some common indicators of wear or damage in disc couplings include:
- Vibration: Excessive vibration during operation can signal misalignment, component wear, or imbalance in the disc coupling.
- Noise: Unusual noises like clicking, clanking, or rattling can indicate wear, misalignment, or damage in the coupling components.
- Heat Generation: Excessive heat near the coupling area can suggest friction or misalignment issues.
- Reduced Performance: Decreased efficiency, torque transmission, or system performance may point to coupling wear or damage.
- Visual Inspection: Look for signs of visible wear, corrosion, cracks, or deformation on the coupling components.
To detect these signs of wear or damage, regular visual inspections, vibration analysis, and performance monitoring are essential. Early detection allows for timely maintenance or replacement of the affected components, ensuring the continued reliability and safety of the disc coupling and the machinery it serves.
Unique Construction of Disc Couplings for Vibration Dampening and Resonance Control
The distinctive construction of disc couplings plays a vital role in their ability to dampen vibrations and control resonance:
- Flexible Disc Packs: Disc couplings consist of multiple thin metal discs stacked alternately. These discs are connected to the hub and spacer, creating a flexible structure that can absorb and dissipate vibrations.
- Radial Compliance: The flexible discs allow for radial compliance, enabling the coupling to absorb misalignments and shocks, which helps prevent the transmission of vibrations.
- Torsional Flexibility: The flexible nature of the disc packs provides torsional flexibility, allowing the coupling to absorb torsional vibrations and shocks that may arise from the machinery.
- Resonance Damping: The design of disc couplings helps dampen resonant frequencies. The unique construction disperses energy across the flexible elements, reducing the risk of resonant vibration buildup.
- Material Selection: The choice of materials for the discs plays a role in controlling resonance. The right combination of material properties can help mitigate the effects of resonance.
By efficiently absorbing and dissipating vibrations and controlling resonance, disc couplings contribute to smoother operation, reduced wear and tear on machinery components, and enhanced overall system performance.
Disc Couplings: Function and Application in Mechanical Systems
A disc coupling is a type of flexible coupling used in mechanical systems to connect two shafts while allowing for angular misalignment, axial movement, and some degree of torsional flexibility. It consists of two hubs with flexible metallic discs, known as diaphragms, positioned between them.
Disc couplings are commonly utilized in various industrial applications where precise power transmission, reliability, and flexibility are essential. Some key features and applications of disc couplings include:
- High Torque Transmission: Disc couplings are designed to transmit high torque loads between shafts while maintaining shaft alignment. The flexible diaphragms can accommodate misalignments and prevent torque overloads on connected equipment.
- Angular Misalignment Compensation: The design of disc couplings allows them to handle angular misalignment between shafts, which can occur due to manufacturing tolerances or dynamic conditions.
- Axial Movement Absorption: Disc couplings can absorb limited axial movement along the shaft axis without transferring excessive forces to the connected components.
- Torsional Flexibility: The metallic diaphragms of disc couplings offer torsional flexibility, enabling them to dampen vibrations and shock loads. This helps protect connected equipment from damage and increases overall system reliability.
- Precision Machinery: Disc couplings are often employed in precision machinery and equipment, such as CNC machines, robotics, pumps, compressors, and servo systems. These applications require accurate motion control and reliable power transmission.
- High-Speed Applications: Due to their balanced design and ability to maintain precise alignment, disc couplings are suitable for high-speed applications where even a small misalignment can lead to vibration and wear.
The ability of disc couplings to provide both flexibility and precise torque transmission makes them a preferred choice in various industries, including manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and more. Proper selection, installation, and maintenance of disc couplings contribute to improved machinery performance, reduced downtime, and extended component life.
