Servo motor coupling selection is governed by requirements that rarely appear in general industrial coupling specifications: zero backlash, high torsional stiffness, low inertia, and compatibility with the servo control loop dynamics. A coupling that is perfectly...

The disc coupling occupies a specific and important niche in the coupling world: it is the premium choice where zero backlash and maintenance-free operation must coexist in the same product. Elastomeric couplings provide maintenance simplicity but have inherent...

Conveyor systems are among the most demanding coupling applications in Australian heavy industry. A typical belt conveyor in a mining or quarrying operation starts under full load multiple times per shift, transmits sustained high torque for hours at a time, operates...

Direct-on-line motor starting is the simplest and cheapest way to start a motor. It is also, from a drivetrain engineering perspective, one of the most violent. Every DOL start applies 2–3 times the rated running torque as a shock load to the gearbox, coupling, and...

The jaw coupling — also known as a spider coupling or claw coupling — is the most widely used elastomeric coupling type in Australian industrial maintenance. Its simplicity is its greatest advantage: two hubs with interlocking jaw projections and an elastomeric spider...
