Details of flange coupling
The flange coupling is a rigid coupling and is one of the most widely used fixed rigid couplings. The two half-couplings withflanges are connected to the two shafts by ordinary flat keys, and then the two half-couplings are bolted together to transmitmotion and torque.
Flange coupling is centered by the reaming bolts, and the assembly and disassembly does not move in the axial direction. Flange coupling concave and convex groove is centered, easy to process, but the assembly and disassembly should move in the axial direction
Advantages of flange couplings
1. The flange coupling is simple in structure, convenient to manufacture, low in cost and reliable in work.
2. Easy to assemble, disassemble, and maintain. The transmission torque is large, which can ensure high alignment accuracy of the two axes.
3. Generally used in shaft drive with stable load, high speed or high transmission accuracy.
Flange couplings do not have radial, axial and angular compensation performance. If the centering accuracy of the two shafts cannot be guaranteed during use, it will reduce the service life, transmission accuracy and transmission efficiency of the coupling, and cause vibration And noise.
