Couplings

Flexible shaft couplings are capable of absorbing the static and dynamic misalignment which inevitably occur between two nominally in line rotating shafts. The new generation of unisoft spiders are the best subject matter of a thorough cad analysis and practical dynamic tests. Also available couplings in ready to install finished bores. Today unisoft is a famous name in the field of mechanical power transmission couplings, and has the expertise to offer the most optimal drive line solution, either from the standard manufacturing programmer comprising of over two hundred design combinations, or by manufacturing a tailor made coupling for a specific application. Unisoft couplings are torsionally flexible and capable of attenuating the torsional oscillations because of the damping characterstics of the spider and the drive inserts. They are fail safe and assist to restrain body resonance and contribute to noise reduction.

Nylon couplings are compact and require no lubrication. They operate over a wide temperature range at speeds up to 5,000 RPM and are effectively used in applications such as Motor/ Generator sets, pump sets, and many light to medium duty industrial coupling applications. No lubricants are ever required, eliminating the need for seals. The resilient nature of the nylon material makes the contact of the hubs and sleeves almost frictionless. Since no lubrication is used, the coupling can readily be adapted to many applications including vertical and blind installations where the slip-together components offer easy inspection and adjustment. Operationally, the coupling offers a minimum backlash solution that will operate in ambient temperature environments from -40° to 150° F. Nylon Sleeve couplings have precision molded sleeves and hubs with no bolts, pins, flanges, or protrusions to affect balance or safety. The nylon sleeve permits misalignment up to 5° for dentex and nyflex couplings and 3° for the mite. when completely assembled, the mite coupling weighs less than 1lb and the Nyflex only 3.50 lbs.

Gear couplings also called unisoft gear couplings are power dense and capable of transmitting high torque at high speeds while still remaining inherently well balanced. Gear couplings transmit torque by the mating on two hubs with external gears teeth that are joined by flanged sleeves with internal gear teeth. Large tooth profile for longer life, interchangeable with other ind, std gear couplings. Torque up to 81709 nm, bore up to 260 mm.
