Disc coupling

Our disc packs are manufactured making use of large grade stainless steel
(AISI-301), making sure substantial strength, high endurance to fatigue, and resistance to most environmental problems.
Disc couplings employ unitized disc packs with both six or 8 bolt models. The eight bolt style can transmit higher torque compared to the 6 bolt design and style, nevertheless, it is not in a position to accommodate as a great deal angular misalignment.
Couplings can be fitted with overload bushings to protect the disc pack in the course of momentary torsional overloads.
Couplings are supplied within a number of configurations to match most applications. In addition, ?¡¥s engineering department can customize a coupling to meet quite a few particular needs this kind of as near coupled, drop-out centers, electrically insulated, vertical mounting, and safety couplings. A notable layout made available by will be the lowered moment (DI Type) coupling that meets the anti-flail gadget requirements mandated in API-610 though supplying a low bodyweight and short center of gravity to bearing distance.
The style and manufacture of disc couplings is integrated right into a certified Good quality Program in accordance to ISO-9001 to fulfill the large quality demands of customers.
Pros with the Disc Coupling
Eliminates the need for lubrication and coupling upkeep
Coupling might be inspected without disassembly
Condition of disc packs is often inspected with a strobe light although the machine is operating
Note: It is actually not proposed that couplings be operated with no coupling guards.
Easy to assess products misalignment
Torsionally rigid without any backlash
No wearing parts
\Resistance to harsh environments
Long existence when adequately sized and aligned
High electrical power density (increased torque for any offered outside diameter)
Supports the API-610 Common up to 3,800 RPM
Unitized disc packs make certain repeatability important for meeting the stability and piloting prerequisites as mandated by API-610
Readily available with Overload Bushings to protect the coupling from momentary torque overloads
Prevents the disc pack from getting plastically deformed
Allows for shorter BSE (shaft separation) simply because bolts can be turned to encounter inward
Special orientation of bolts lets the bolts to be tightened utilizing a torque wrench in place of nuts (Normal should be to tighten nuts with torque wrench)
