Servometer Flexible Shaft Couplings Ensure Accurate Positioning

 

Servometer® precision electrodeposited, flexible shaft couplings provide low torque capabilities from 2 oz-in (1.4 Ncm) to 20 lb-ft (27 Nm), for shaft sizes ranging from .090 to 1 inch to ensure accurate positioning between motors, driven loads and feedback devices. They are also laterally flexible to accommodate shaft misalignment up to 31°, or parallel misalignments (shafts parallel but offset) up to .076 inch. In general, as flexibility increases, torque capacity decreases. For attachment to shafts, standard set screw hub, split hub with clamping collar or integral clamp hub styles are available.

Servometer nickel alloy bellows feature zero backlash, vibration damping capability, zero cyclic speed variation during 360° rotation, very low elastic windup, due to torsional rigidity, and low side thrust on bearings because of lateral flexibility. Other coupling types have either low windup or low side thrust; but not both.

Bellows couplings are ideal for use in critical applications such as resolvers, encoders, servos, motion control devices, and computers or in other precision motion control applications that require mechanically tight systems.
