Metal Bellows Coupling

Bellows couplings are a type of flexible couplings with two clamping hubs connected by a series of flexible stainless steel or bronze bellows corrugations.

Metal bellows coupling.

Misalignment compensation with zero backlash comprised of two end hubs with set screws or integral clamps that fasten to a shaft our stainless steel bellows couplings utilize hydroformed corrugated flex members to compensate for axial angular and radial shaft misalignment. With a bellows between two hubs these couplings handle all types of misalignment and are good for precision stepper and encoder motion control applications. Our standard bellows shaft couplings are available in bore sizes ranging from 090 to 625 inches 2 29 to 15 88 mm with maximum torque ratings of 25 to 5000 in oz 0 1 to 19 2 n m. Bkm metal bellows coupling with clamping hub.

Aluminum hubs with stainless steel bellows. Overall length mm a 2. Inside diameter possible from ø to ø h7 mm d 1 d 2. Servometer is a preeminent manufacturer of quality crafted metal bellows couplings electroforms and electrical contact springs.

In linear and spindle lifting units of machine tools and packaging machines in medical and pump technology in test benches in automation conveyor and control technology in robotics and much more. Bellows coupling ruland bellows couplings are comprised of two anodized aluminum hubs and a stainless steel bellows. This design creates a low inertia zero backlash coupling with long life properties. Since 1957 our custom engineered parts have made the impossible possible providing clients accurate dependable and reliable solutions for any application challenge.

Standard bellows style coupling. The corrugations absorb axial forces that are created by thermal expansion as the motor heats up meaning bellows couplings can handle higher operating temperatures than elastomer couplings. Up to 88 5 in lbs. Highly precise torsionally stiff backlash free the world s leading metal bellows couplings of the ringfeder gwb series formerly gerwah are ideal for all applications in which torques or rotary movements must be transmitted from shaft to shaft with highest angular accuracy.

Servometer currently offers two bellows technologies. 20 1 000 nm. Up to 71 420 in lbs rad. Fit length mm c.
