Schmidt Offset Shaft Couplings offer great flexibility in shaft displacement while maintaining constant torque transmission, angular velocity, and phase relationship. Schmidt offset couplings deliver advanced performance and space savings over many alternative options. The Schmidt coupling’s compact design eliminates radial vibration and creates no side loads, while allowing for dynamic misalignment changes without a loss in performance.
