What is flexible coupling?
A flexible coupling is a mechanical device whose main function is to connect two shafts and transmit power. Compared with traditional rigid couplings, flexible couplings are flexible and can absorb axis misalignment and vibration. They are designed to reduce shock and noise in mechanical systems while increasing overall system efficiency and longevity. There are many types of flexible couplings, including flexible disc couplings, elastic sleeve couplings, universal joint couplings, etc. These different types of couplings are suitable for a variety of applications, such as high-torque transmission, high-speed operation, and high-precision alignment. The advantage of choosing a flexible coupling is that it can adapt to axis misalignment and reduce vibration and noise during equipment operation. This helps protect other components of the mechanical system and prolongs its service life. In addition, flexible couplings can simplify installation and maintenance and increase...
