Description
This is a description of a specific multi-beam coupling made by Huco, a company that specializes in manufacturing couplings and other transmission products. The coupling is made of aluminum and has a 0.157" bore on both ends, with a 0.75" outer diameter and a length of 0.9". It can handle a maximum torque of 1.124 In-lbs and is designed to withstand temperatures ranging from -40 to 248 degrees F. The coupling is suitable for use in various power transmission applications and can accommodate axial, angular, and parallel misalignment. Huco Dynatork, the company that manufactures this coupling, meets quality assurance standards and is based in Hertfordshire, England.
This Huco multi-beam coupling has an aluminum alloy body and black-oiled alloy steel fasteners for strength and corrosion resistance. Its single-piece construction gives it increased service life over couplings with moving parts and can handle axial motion as well as angular and parallel misalignment. This multi-beam coupling can operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 248 degrees F (-40 to 120 degrees C) and is suitable for use in general purpose light duty power transmission applications such as encoders, stepper drives, and servo drives, among others.Flexible couplings are used to link two rotating shafts that are not aligned in order to transmit the rotational power, known as torque, from one shaft to the other. Most flexible couplings consist of two hubs and a middle assembly; each hub attaches to a shaft while the middle assembly flexes between the hubs to accommodate the misalignment of the two shafts. Shaft misalignments are generally either parallel or angular and cause complications to transmitting rotational power from one shaft to another in the form of stresses, loads, vibrations, and other forces, which vary from one type of misalignment to another. Flexible couplings are used in a broad range of applications, such as in motor vehicles, conveyors, escalators, agricultural, forestry and mining equipment, aeronautics, robotics and space exploration, among others.Huco Dynatork manufactures couplings, piston air motors, brakes, clutches, gear boxes and other transmission products. The company, founded in 1965, meets the quality assurance standards of the British Standards Institution (BSI), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the Deutsches Institut fur Normung (DIN), and is based in Hertfordshire, England.
