Flexible Shaft Coupling

Description:  
Flexible couplings connect two shafts, end-to-end and in the same line, causing both to rotate at the same speed. They also flex to compensate for misalignment and movement between shafts. This compensation is crucial because the perfect alignment of two shafts is extremely difficult and rarely achieved. There are two types of misalignment: angular and parallel. Most flexible couplings also accommodate axial movement, or end float, of the shafts.
Aluminum Flexible Shaft Coupling is a flexible encoder motor coupling with optional diameter and length, which is made of aluminum alloy material and specialized for CNC machines, 3D printers, etc. This coupling is a shaft coupler that is used to connect servo motor stepper motor, encoder screw driving machine platform, and so on.
By careful selection, installation and maintenance of couplings, substantial savings can be made in reduced maintenance costs and downtime.

Usages of shaft coupling:
To transfer power from one end to another end. (ex: motor transfer power to pump through coupling) Primary function.
To provide for the connection of shafts of units that are manufactured separately such as a motor and generator and to provide for disconnection for repairs or alterations.
To provide for the misalignment of the shafts or to introduce mechanical flexibility.
To reduce the transmission of shock loads from one shaft to another.
To introduce protection against overloads.
