A flexible shaft coupling is a mechanical device designed to connect two distinct machine elements, like a motor and a drive system, facilitating the transmission of rotational force. Its flexibility allows it to compensate for shaft misalignments and angular discrepancies, enhancing equipment longevity while minimizing operational noise and vibration. Various types of flexible shaft couplings exist, including bellows, jaw, and disc types, each tailored to address specific misalignment issues and torque requirements.
Bellows couplings are preferred in high-precision applications for their superior ability to correct for parallel and angular shaft misalignments. Jaw and disc couplings, meanwhile, are recognized for their robust torque transmission capabilities and adaptability, making them suitable for a wide range of mechanical setups.
