The curved jaw couplings consist of three parts: the two metal hubs and a polyurethane elastomer. The metal hubs feature jaw type construction, and the elastomer insert looks like a spider. These three parts are then pressed together and used for a rotational power transmission. The polyurethane elastomer is designed to transmit the torque, absorb the vibration, and accommodate misalignment in order to protect the other parts against damage.
The jaw couplings can accommodate high misalignment and transmit high torque. This makes curved jaw couplings ideal for use in CNC equipment.
Applications:
The jaw couplings are applied in machine tool, monitor retractor, vacuum pump, lifting jack, entrance/exit gate, textile machinery, pump, hydraulic equipment, XY stage, transport device, index table, injection molding machine, tube production machine, test stand
Coupling components:
Metal hub: normally use the aluminum alloy that has been anodized, and stainless steel type can be available according to our customer’s requirement.
Elastomer: we use polyurethane, and according to the usage condition, we provide the following hardness to choose: 98 Shore A (Red), 92 Shore A (Yellow), 80 Shore A (Blue), 64 Shore D (Green).
Custom Design
According to customer's requirement, all the flexible and rigid couplings can be custom machined involving material choices, torque range, size, and flexible configurations, etc. We offer all kinds of servo motor coupling types in rigid, beam, bellows, curved jaw, disc, and oldham types allowing our customers to select the best coupling.
