Product Description
Product Description
Flexible couplings are used to transmit torque from 1 shaft to another when the 2 shafts are slightly misaligned. It can accommodate varying degrees of misalignment up to 3°. In addition to allowing for misalignment, it can also be used for vibration damping or noise reduction.
Encoder couplings, flexible coupling, couplings working with Encoder & all kinds of motors (servo motor, DC motor, AC motor, gear motors).

Recent Advancements in Rubber Coupling Technology
In recent years, rubber coupling technology has seen several advancements aimed at improving performance, durability, and overall efficiency:
- Enhanced Rubber Compounds: Development of advanced rubber compounds with improved resistance to wear, heat, chemicals, and environmental conditions.
- Advanced Manufacturing Techniques: Utilization of innovative manufacturing processes like injection molding and vulcanization to create couplings with consistent quality and higher precision.
- Improved Design: Integration of advanced design techniques and computer simulations to optimize the shape and characteristics of rubber elements, resulting in enhanced flexibility and damping properties.
- Customization: Increasing focus on offering customizable rubber couplings to meet specific application requirements and environmental conditions.
- Smart Couplings: Incorporation of sensors and monitoring systems into rubber couplings, allowing real-time tracking of coupling performance and condition.
These advancements have led to rubber couplings that offer better torque transmission, improved vibration isolation, longer service life, and reduced maintenance needs.
Common Rubber Materials Used in Manufacturing Rubber Couplings
Various rubber materials are used in the manufacturing of rubber couplings, each chosen based on its specific properties and the intended application:
- Neoprene: Known for its oil and chemical resistance, neoprene rubber is used in couplings that require durability and resistance to harsh environments.
- Nitrile: Nitrile rubber offers excellent oil and fuel resistance, making it suitable for applications in machinery that involve contact with lubricants.
- Natural Rubber: Natural rubber provides good elasticity and flexibility, making it suitable for couplings requiring high levels of shock and vibration absorption.
- EPDM: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber offers good resistance to weather, ozone, and aging, making it suitable for outdoor or high-temperature applications.
- Polyurethane: Polyurethane rubber offers high abrasion resistance and can handle higher load capacities, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
The choice of rubber material depends on factors such as the operating environment, chemical exposure, temperature range, flexibility requirements, and load conditions. Engineers select the appropriate rubber material to ensure the coupling’s performance and longevity in specific applications.
Types of Rubber Couplings Designed for Specific Uses
There are several types of rubber couplings, each designed with specific characteristics to suit various applications:
- Flexible Jaw Couplings: These couplings consist of two hubs connected by a flexible rubber element. They are commonly used in applications where misalignment, vibrations, and shocks need to be dampened, such as in pumps, fans, and compressors.
- Oldham Couplings: Oldham couplings use a rubber disk as the intermediate element between two hubs. They provide compensation for misalignment while maintaining a constant velocity between input and output shafts, often used in printing, packaging, and CNC machinery.
- Tyre Couplings: These couplings have a high degree of torsional flexibility and are suitable for applications with substantial misalignment and shock absorption requirements, like in heavy-duty machinery and construction equipment.
- Pin and Bush Couplings: These couplings use rubber bushes to provide vibration isolation and accommodate misalignment. They are used in various industrial applications, including conveyors, mixers, and crushers.
- Diaphragm Couplings: Diaphragm couplings use a flexible rubber diaphragm to transmit torque and compensate for misalignment. They are commonly found in precision equipment like servo motors and robotics.
Each type of rubber coupling is designed to address specific needs in different applications. The choice of coupling depends on factors such as the degree of misalignment, torque requirements, shock absorption, and the level of precision needed.
