Schmidt offset couplings are designed for large parallel offset shaft applications where possible damaging side loads or misalignments may be encountered.
Schmidt offset couplings from Zero-Max are designed for large parallel offset shaft applications where possible damaging side loads or misalignments may be encountered.
They impose no side loads on the shafts or bearings and eliminate radial shaft vibration.
There is no performance loss for increasing the offset distance.
Available for shaft displacements of 0.156 to 17.29in and torque capacities from 55 to 459,000in-lb, Schmidt offset couplings are designed for printing, paper conversion, robotic, electronic, optical and business machine applications.
Designed to provide flexibility in shaft displacement, Schmidt offset couplings maintain undisturbed power transmission at constant angular velocity.
Most important, they provide a smooth, quiet flow of power for maximum system torque and performance because of their clean, dynamic offset design.
Additional features include: space-saving design; no performance loss by increasing shaft offset; coupling can be mounted to shaft hubs or directly to existing machine flanges - no need to reposition either shaft being coupled; several different models and specials to handle a wide range of applications.
