Chain couplings: small maintenance, more power
Chain couplings are ideal for elastic torque transmitting over a wide speed range. They are effective, effective and robust e. g. concerning higher temperatures and small angle or parallel displacement.
Furthermore, they are low-maintenance items, they are easy to separate by simply opening the coupling chain, and they offer an excellent price / performance ratio for numerous applications in machine and plant construction. The wide software range is due to the numerous coupling sizes that can be supplied.
Mounting of the special coupling sprockets with hardened toothing is completed inversely on both opposite shaft extensions. Nevertheless, certain stipulated requirements as to angle deviation and parallel displacement need to be fulfilled. The coupling chain – a measured duplex roller chain regarding to ISO 606 – is usually positioned around the toothing of both sprockets and closed by means of a connecting link.
Chain couplings are used to transmit power between two shafts. Generally, chain couplings will be set up off the finish of a engine or reducer (gearbox) and useful to connect to a 
machine for effective power transmission. A full chain coupling contains two hubs (or sprockets), one coupling chain, which shows up very similar to a strand of dual roller chain and a cover. Not all applications will use a cover, however for both safety and coupling lifestyle they are suggested. Chain couplings are normally utilized in low swiftness, high torque applications and invite for 2 degrees misalignment between shafts. Chain couplings are considered an economical way to transmit power between shafts. Please get in touch with Bearing Service to greatly help provide or style in the right coupling for the application.
The Ever-power chain coupling, composed of two-strand roller chains and two sprocket wheels, features simple and compact structure, and high flexibility, power transmission capability and durability.
Also, the chain coupling allows basic connection/disconnection of shafts one another, and the use of the housing enhances basic safety and durability.
