Panflex Couplings

Features

Panflex couplings are free from rotational backlash and provide uniform and smooth operation at constant angular velocity. These couplings give outstanding service for instance in regulating and controlling drives. For equipment such as machine tools with numerical controllers. indexing systems, and printing machine, PANFLEX couplings are better than other couplings.

Panflex couplings have no sliding, frictional, or moving parts. Therefore there is no friction or noise and they are not subject to wear and require no maintenance or lubrication. With proper selection and careful installation an unlimited working life may be expected from this compact, ruggedly constructed all steel couplings.The flexible element plate packs (Stainless steel) are integral components, easily visible, readly inspected and can be installed without difficulty.

Panflex couplings are manufactured for torque from 3.4kgf to 8530kgf, in various sizes and are applicable to a wide variety of systems becasue of their great range of allowable displacement. Panflex couplings are suitable for both directions of rotation and adaptable for vertical installation with integral support. Panflex couplings are used in all types of industries and temperatures to 280°C are permissible.(above 150°C, consult Nara)

Characteristics

• Free from rotational backlash.
• Long service lifetime.
• The flexible elements can be exchanged without shifting the connected machines.
• Failsafe type by reamer bolts.
• Can be used in high temperature and speed.
