Couplings
The primary function of a coupling is to connect two shafts that turn in the same direction and on the same centreline.
Selecting a coupling will depend on a number of important factors depending on operating conditions. Factors which should be considered include:
- Horsepower
- Torque
- Angular misalignment
- Offset misalignment
- Type of driven equipment
- Rotational speed
- Shaft size
- Space
- Environment
