Product Picture

These stainless steel shaft couplers allow you to couple 2 size shafts together. They can be used for connecting motor shafts to drive shafts, or 2 different-sized shafts. These shaft couplers have a length of 0.75", a outer diameter of 0.42", and couple 1/4" to 5mm shafts.

Connect this to that with a set-screw coupler. These couplers are made of machined aluminum and have a spiral cut that makes them slightly flexible so they can be fit to 2 shafts even if they are not perfectly co-linear and will help reduce binding effects.  

This coupler will connect a 5mm diameter shaft to an 8mm diameter shaft. A perfect add on for motors. Comes with 2 sets of double set-screws (two per side) for secure attachment. You'll need a 2mm allen wrench to tighten/loosen the set-screws.

Using Jaw Couplings in Applications with Varying Operating Temperatures

Jaw couplings are versatile and can be used in a wide range of operating temperatures. The suitability of jaw couplings for applications with varying temperatures depends on the specific material used in their construction.

Typically, jaw couplings are available in various materials, including:

• Aluminum: Aluminum jaw couplings are suitable for applications with moderate temperature ranges. They offer good strength and are lightweight, making them ideal for many industrial applications.
• Steel: Steel jaw couplings have higher strength and are suitable for applications with higher temperatures. They can handle more demanding conditions and are commonly used in heavy-duty machinery and equipment.
• Stainless Steel: Stainless steel jaw couplings provide excellent corrosion resistance and are well-suited for applications that require resistance to moisture, chemicals, and high temperatures.
• Other Specialized Materials: Some jaw couplings are made from specialized materials, such as high-temperature alloys or composite materials, to handle extreme operating conditions.

When selecting a jaw coupling for an application with varying operating temperatures, it's crucial to consider the specific temperature range the coupling will experience. Choosing the right material ensures that the jaw coupling can perform reliably without undergoing excessive wear or premature failure due to temperature-induced stresses.

In summary, jaw couplings can indeed be used in applications with varying operating temperatures, provided that the appropriate material is chosen based on the specific temperature range and environmental conditions of the application.

Can jaw couplings be used in servo motor and stepper motor applications?

Yes, jaw couplings can be used in both servo motor and stepper motor applications, and they are commonly employed in such systems. The key factors that make jaw couplings suitable for these motor types are their ability to handle misalignment, their torsional flexibility, and their compact and lightweight design.

In servo motor applications, jaw couplings are chosen for their high precision and responsiveness. Servo motors require couplings that can transmit torque with minimal backlash and provide accurate motion control. Jaw couplings achieve this by maintaining a tight fit between the elastomer spider and the coupling hubs, minimizing backlash and ensuring precise torque transmission. The elastomer spider also dampens vibrations and shocks, contributing to smoother motor operation and increased system stability. Additionally, the compact size and low inertia of jaw couplings make them ideal for high-speed servo motor applications where quick acceleration and deceleration are crucial.

In stepper motor applications, jaw couplings are preferred for their ability to handle misalignment. Stepper motors often have shaft misalignment due to manufacturing tolerances or other factors, and jaw couplings can accommodate both angular and parallel misalignment without imposing significant additional loads on the motor bearings. This helps to reduce wear and extend the life of the motor and coupling components. Moreover, stepper motors are commonly used in open-loop systems, where precise positioning and motion control are essential. Jaw couplings' low backlash characteristics aid in achieving accurate positioning and eliminating any motion inaccuracies that might arise due to backlash in the coupling.

Overall, jaw couplings are well-suited for servo motor and stepper motor applications due to their precision, ability to handle misalignment, torsional flexibility, and low inertia. When selecting a jaw coupling for a specific motor application, it is essential to consider factors such as torque requirements, operating conditions, and motor specifications to ensure optimal performance and reliability in the system.

Handling Angular, Parallel, and Axial Misalignment with Jaw Couplings

Jaw couplings are designed to handle various types of misalignment that can occur between the shafts they connect. These misalignments include:

• Angular Misalignment: When the shafts are not aligned in a straight line and have an angular offset, jaw couplings can accommodate this misalignment due to the flexibility of their elastomeric spider. The spider allows for a limited amount of angular movement between the hubs, reducing stress on the connected equipment.
• Parallel Misalignment: Parallel misalignment occurs when the shafts are not perfectly aligned but are parallel to each other. Jaw couplings can handle parallel misalignment to some extent, thanks to the elastomeric spider's ability to flex and offset slight shaft misalignments.
• Axial Misalignment: Axial misalignment refers to the displacement of shafts along their rotational axis. While jaw couplings are primarily designed for torque transmission and misalignment compensation, they have limited capability to handle axial misalignment. Excessive axial misalignment can lead to premature wear and reduce the coupling's effectiveness.

It's important to note that jaw couplings have specific misalignment limits, and exceeding these limits can lead to increased wear and decreased performance. Regular maintenance and inspection of jaw couplings are essential to ensure they are operating within acceptable misalignment parameters.
