Our disc packs are produced utilizing higher grade stainless steel
(AISI-301), guaranteeing high power, high endurance to fatigue, and resistance to most environmental problems.
Disc couplings employ unitized disc packs with each six or 8 bolt designs. The 8 bolt design can transmit higher torque than the 6 bolt design and style, nonetheless, it can be not able to accommodate as a lot angular misalignment.
Couplings could be fitted with overload bushings to guard the disc pack for the duration of momentary torsional overloads.
Couplings are offered in a selection of configurations to match most applications. Additionally, ?¡¥s engineering department can customize a coupling to meet quite a few distinctive necessities such as close coupled, drop-out centers, electrically insulated, vertical mounting, and safety couplings. A notable design provided by is definitely the reduced moment (DI Variety) coupling that meets the anti-flail device requirements mandated in API-610 although offering a reduced weight and brief center of gravity to bearing distance.
The design and manufacture of disc couplings is integrated right into a licensed High quality System according to ISO-9001 to fulfill the higher quality needs of buyers.
Benefits from the Disc Coupling
Eliminates the need for lubrication and coupling maintenance
Coupling might be inspected devoid of disassembly
Condition of disc packs is usually inspected using a strobe light though the machine is operating
Note: It is actually not suggested that couplings be operated with no coupling guards.
Easy to assess gear misalignment
Torsionally rigid with out any backlash
No wearing components
\Resistance to harsh environments
Long lifestyle when thoroughly sized and aligned
High energy density (larger torque for any provided outside diameter)
Supports the API-610 Regular up to three,800 RPM
Unitized disc packs assure repeatability vital for meeting the balance and piloting requirements as mandated by API-610
Offered with Overload Bushings to safeguard the coupling from momentary torque overloads
Prevents the disc pack from currently being plastically deformed
Allows for shorter BSE (shaft separation) mainly because bolts can be turned to face inward
Special orientation of bolts will allow the bolts for being tightened utilizing a torque wrench as an alternative to nuts (Typical is usually to tighten nuts with torque wrench)
