Flexible shaft couplings efficiently accommodate moderate shaft misalignment. Shaft misalignment occurs when the shafts’ axes of rotation become skewed. When shafts remain aligned with one another, performance is optimal and the shafts’ axes of rotation intersect in one straight line. Flexible shaft couplings provide the means by which rotating equipment can continue to function during moderate displacement measuring up to 5° of misalignment. Three types of flexible shaft couplings exist: mechanical flexible shaft couplings, elastomeric flexible shaft couplings, and metallic membrane flexible shaft couplings. However, not all manufacturers produce all three types.
Movement, bumps, and vibration can all cause shaft movement, which results in parallel, angular, or skewed shaft misalignment. Parallel misalignment occurs when shafts' axes are parallel to one another, but do not intersect with one another. Angular misalignment occurs when the axes of shafts intersect with one another at an angle. Skewed misalignment occurs when axial misalignment and angular misalignment occur in conjunction with one another.
In addition to transmitting torque and accommodating shaft misalignment, flexible shaft couplings perform other functions. For instance, flexible shaft couplings remedy axial displacement, which occurs when the shafts move along the axis of rotation, either toward or away from one another. Flexible shaft couplings also provide shock absorption and lessen the intensity of vibrations, a process known as damping.
Numerous types of flexible shaft couplings exist. Choosing the correct flexible coupling requires careful analysis of the industrial application and environment in which the coupling will be used and the performance of the individual couplings. Certain flexible shaft couplings are better suited than others for particular applications. Flexible shaft couplings are categorized according to their means of flexibility and their application. Certain manufacturers can make custom flexible shaft couplings for rare or odd connections.
