These couplings are capable of transmitting high levels of power, making them suitable for demanding tasks that require consistent performance.
5. Shock Absorption
Hydraulic drive couplings are equipped with shock absorption capabilities, which help protect connected components from damage caused by sudden impacts or vibrations.
Introduction to Types of Drive Couplings
1. Gear Couplings
Gear couplings are used to connect two shafts for transmitting power and torque. They are known for their high torque capacity and misalignment tolerance.
2. Grid Couplings
Grid couplings utilize a flexible grid design to transmit power between shafts. They offer high torsional stiffness and are suitable for applications with varying torque loads.
3. Disc Couplings
Disc couplings consist of thin metal discs that are bolted together to transmit torque. They provide high torsional stiffness and are ideal for precision applications.
4. Jaw Couplings
Jaw couplings feature elastomeric spiders that help absorb shocks and vibrations. They are commonly used in light to medium-duty applications.
5. Chain Couplings
Chain couplings use roller chains to transmit power between two shafts. They are known for their high torque capacity and are suitable for heavy-duty applications.
Materials Used in Drive Couplings
