A beam, or helical coupling is a flexible, elastic coupling. It transmits torque between two imperfectly aligned shafts while damping shocks and vibrations. Its one or more helical grooves render it more torsionally flexible than a metal bellows. Its design often favors a particular rotational direction.
Beam couplings are used wherever torque must be transmitted between two imperfectly aligned shafts while damping shocks and vibrations.
Choice of coupling will depend on:
- Torque and speed to be transmitted
- Shaft misalignment
- Load type: requiring torque fluctuation compensation (flexible elastic absorption) or perfectly synchronized (flexible, no-twist coupling)
- Size, available space, noise, disassembly
- Environment, temperature, other external factors
