Pin and Bush Couplings
One of the popular products used in harsh conditions, the Pin and Bush couplings are used as flexible compensating couplings, in all applications requiring a reliable transmission of torque, under challenging operating conditions.
The conical seats of the buffer pins facilitate mounting and guaranteed maintenance-free operation. The optimized shape of the barreled buffers allows simple plug-in assembly and low circumferential backlash. At Universal Associates, we offer many of its variants like the ones with brake disk, axial play limiting device or brake motor couplings.
Geared Couplings
When it comes to rough operating conditions, the double-jointed gear couplings from this series compensate for angular, parallel and axial misalignment of shafts. What makes it special is the teeth of the geared couplings are lubricated with oil or grease and special sealing rings seal the tooth space, making them more intact. These sealing rings offer double security preventing lubricant from escaping and dirt from entering the tooth space ensuring longer life.
The Geared Couplings are suitable for both directions of rotation (reversing operation) and vertical installation and offers long service life and minimal maintenance requirements.
Fluid Couplings
A perfect choice for tough applications, drive components and processing machines that are subject to extreme loads, the fluid couplings result into torque transmitted by its fluid movement, accelerated by the radial blades, which are not mechanically connected.
It sets the torque limits during the start-up and in the case of overload protects coupled system components, hence allowing acceleration of large masses without using oversized motors. It also protects the drive against load peaks due to frequent switching procedures and reverse operation. A thermal operation control device and fusible safety plugs in the coupling housing provide additional protection against overheating and overload pressure.
