Overview
Combines elastic bushes with a disc connection for drives requiring widely separated shafts and cushioning of torsional shocks.
Construction
Elastic elements and metal discs; spacer-tube length follows the shaft separation. Calculate stiffness and critical speed for the machine.
Applications
Variable-frequency drives and industrial systems with large shaft separations.
Selection
Table inertia and torsional stiffness refer to E=1 m. Determine actual values from the final shaft separation and drawings.
Ordering information
Specify equipment type, transmitted power, operating speed, load characteristics, both shaft diameters and extension lengths, shaft-end separation and installation space. Include any brake, dynamic-balancing or elastic-element requirements.
