Couplings chosen with application requirements in mind last longer, improve precision, and protect other system components from premature failure. • Engineers should choose couplings that compensate ...

Machine-vision and optical-inspection systems demand precise motion control, and this requires precision components. One often overlooked but important component is the zerobacklash coupling that ...

Flexible couplings manufacturer Ruland Manufacturing now makes oldham coupling hubs from 303 stainless steel. This addition gives designers an off-the-shelf coupling to choose from when designing ...

The objective of optimized shaft alignment is to increase the operating life span of rotating machinery. To achieve this goal, components that are the most likely to fail must be made to operate ...

Rotating shaft-driven mechanical components are commonly used in all forms of machinery that perform the various processes and functions of modern industry. While perfect alignment of shafts and ...
