VALLEY COTTAGE, N.Y. – Misalignment of shafts is unavoidable because a shaft, in most cases, is aligned when a machine is unloaded. That apart, operational force also causes shafts to bend. Moreover, ...

Couplings chosen with application requirements in mind last longer, improve precision, and protect other system components from premature failure. • Engineers should choose couplings that compensate ...

Materials — When complicated geometry proves more trouble than it’s worth, the deceptively simple function of transmitting torque can be improved by even small changes in chemical makeup. The core ...
