When driving and driven shaft are widely separated,an un supported or floating shaft is used to span the gap. The two couplings require at each end of that shaft consists of one half of a standard coupling bolted to a Rigid Hub,each unit called a Flex-Rigid Coupling. Usually, the rigid hubs are mounted on the driving and driven shafts so that the flex halves on the floating shaft may be replaced without disturbing the connection equipment. The offset misalignment capacity of the floating shaft assembly increases as the distance between the gear meshes increases. Maximum design offset capacity may be calculated by multiplying the CL - CL of the teeth by the factor. 0.26 to obtain offset mis-alignment in inches. Any application requiring offset misalignment in excess of 0.013 times ( CL - CL ) of teeth should be referred to Flex - Tran for review.
With our continuous research and development, adherence to international standards of quality and customer satisfaction, we have earned a respectable position in the national as well as the international market for our gear couplings. Our management team is well qualified with great expertise and specialization.
