Zero Backlash Servo Couplings

Miniature Couplings Servo Insert Couplings Metal Bellows Couplings

Metal Bellows Couplings

• AKN - collet clamp • CK - flange mounting

Metal Bellows Coupling Features Zero Backlash - Highest Torsional Stiffness available in a flexible coupling Low Inertia - lightweight Stainless Bellows and Aluminum hubs Compensates for misalignment, which protects system bearings Designs can be completely customized to “drop in” any application

Metal Bellows Coupling Applications

• High-production transfer

lines

• Robot ballscrew slides and

gearboxes

• CNC machine tools • Packaging machines • Textile machines • Printing presses • Any servo driven

application where rotational position is critical

Servo Insert Couplings

• ADS - collet clamp

connection

Servo Insert Coupling Features Zero Backlash - High Torsional Stiffness Low Inertia - lightweight Aluminum hubs and Poly Urethane Insert Compensates for Misalignment, which protects system bearings Vibration Dampening Low cost alternative to Bellows Couplings

Servo Insert Coupling Applications

• All Servo applications,

same as Metal Bellows Couplings

• Machines with tight

space requirements or Blind Installations

• Cost driven applications • Machines with higher

load inertia and resonance problems (dampening)

Miniature Couplings

• DKN - collet clamp

connection

Miniature Coupling Applications

• X-Y slides • Actuators • Encoder or other

feedback mounting

• Semi-Conductor

Machines

• Assembly Machines

Magnetic Couplings and Clutches

• Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Couplings • Permanent-Magnet Hysteresis Clutches

Hysteresis and Synchronous Magnet Couplings and Clutches

• HSV flange type • RCC 866 universal Capping

Clutch

• HKD collet type • MKD collet type • MDC disc type • MSV cylindrical type

Hysteresis Magnet Clutch Applications

• Bottle cap

tightening

• Tension control • Winding/unwinding • Packaging,

converting, and food processing machines

MDC – Permanent-Magnet Synchronous “Barrier” Coupling – Disc Type 

Completely

eliminate

the need for shaft

stainless steel barriers, guaranteeing 100% by transmitting torque through

leak free operation.



submerged.

construction available for complete hermetic sealing of the coupling, so it can operate completely



Excellent in Quick Disconnect applications.

As magnetism does not have strict alignment requirements, all that is needed is to get the two hubs fairly close together, and you have an

automatic connection

.

Synchronous Coupling Features & Functions



Eliminate vibration

from one shaft to the next, as there is

no physical connection

.



Torque Limitation

– clutches all have an inherent ability to limit torque by slipping at their preset torque level.

These



High misalignment capability

even with high parallel offset.



All Rimtec Couplings can be modified to fit your current application, and new

custom designs

are also available to meet your more unique requirements.

Synchronous Coupling Applications

• Chemical Pumps • Extruders • Refrigeration Compressors • Bulk Mixers • Fuel Cell • Quick disconnect /

Automation

• High offset applications • Vacuum Environments • Clean Rooms • Nuclear Facilities • Food Processing • Frequent disengaging torque
