For the beam coupling, determine if the coupling should be mounted with set screws or by the split/clamp method. The split clamp method is recommended for accurate positioning. The nominal torque should be treated as the design torque for the Beam coupling design. If the Beam coupling application is non-reversing, the listed torque rating can be used for comparison. If the application is reversing, reduce the nominal torque figure by half.
The Service Factors for the BWC and BWLC series should be: 1.5 for uniform movements, 2.0 for non-uniform movements, and 2.5 (maximum) non-uniform/shock loading movements. The design torque should always be equal to or lower than the nominal rated torque of the coupling.
The GS Series curved jaw coupling offers zero backlash capability in a 3-piece design. Refer to the service factor chart in Motion Control catalog to select the correct service factor.
Mini-Disc coupling feature higher torque capacity over elastomeric coupling types. When sizing the Mini-Disc, ensure that the maximum torque for the application is under the allowable torque for the particular coupling size. Check the maximum bore, misalignment, and torsional stiffness ratings against the requirements of the application.
The L Series jaw coupling provides positive engagement resulting in great strength because of the large area of contact of the elastomer "spider" center member with the interlocking jaws. This 3 piece coupling (two hubs and one spider) provides "fail safe" operations, as it will continue to run, even if the elastomer "spider" fails. The link below goes to all L line coupling components. While the range of coupling sizes is very large, sizes L035 and L050 (the two smallest sizes) are to be considered for motion control.
The MSF Series Mini Soft coupling provides protection from misalignment, vibration, and shock loads. The coupling is comprised of three parts: two hubs with internal teeth, and an elastomeric flexible center sleeve with external teeth. Refer to the service factor chart in Motion Control catalog to select the correct service factor.
The MOL Series Oldham coupling is a precision engineered, torsionally stiff, three-piece coupling. It accommodates misalignment mechanically through a floating disc that engages tenons machined out of the hubs. As the coupling rotates, the floating disc aligns with each hub alternately to an extent demanded by the alignment error. Refer to the service factor chart in Motion Control catalog to select the correct service factor.
