Servomax couplings handle 10,000,000 cycles

R+W Coupling Technology product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Oct 7, 2009
The Servomax line of precision couplings from R+W are designed to handle 10,000,000 cycles at their rated torque.
These robust couplings are intended to last for at least as long as a machine will be in operation.
The resilient polyurethane insert damps vibration and absorbs slight shaft misalignment in the lateral, axial and angular directions while transmitting torque free of backlash.
Over torques, excessive misalignment and unintended chemical exposure could potentially cause the insert to fail.
While positive drive connection would be temporarily ensured by the interlinked metallic jaws, the insert would have to be replaced almost immediately.
In cases where failure is a possibility and ease of maintenance is critical, the EKH series allows for easy installation and removal, eliminating the need to disturb motors, gearboxes and so on.
Available with English, metric, keyed and smooth bores, the EKH can handle torque ranges from 15in/lb, up to more than 19,000in/lb.
Three different insert hardness levels allow for a choice between torsion resistance and flexibility levels required for each application.
