S Beam Single Helix Beam Coupling

S Beam Single Helix Beam Coupling FAQ

1. What is the design of the S Beam Single Helix Beam Coupling?
   The S Beam Single Helix Beam Coupling has a single helical slot cut along its length, creating a spring-like structure. This design enables the coupling to accommodate axial, angular, and parallel misalignments while maintaining zero backlash. As a result, it is ideal for high-precision motion control applications.

2. What are the mechanical specifications?

   • Operating Speed: Up to 10,000 rpm
   • Peak Torque: 11 in·lb
   • Torsional Stiffness: 286.5 in·lb/rad
   • Misalignment Capacities:
     • Angular: Up to 5°
     • Axial: ±0.010 inches
     • Parallel: Up to 0.005 inches

3. Which materials are used in its construction?

   • Coupling Body: Made from anodized aluminum, offering low mass and resistance to corrosion.
   • Shaft Attachment: Set screw style for secure and reliable clamping.

4. What are the environmental specifications?

   • Operating Temperature Range: –20°C to +93°C
     This broad temperature range makes the coupling suitable for a variety of industrial and environmental conditions while ensuring consistent performance.
