A1C Series Single Flex Aluminum Hub Composite Disc (CD®) Couplings are designed and manufactured with very low weight and inertia, making them an excellent choice for today’s most demanding servo motor applications. The unique design of these flexible shaft couplings delivers two features not often found together in a precision coupling: High torsional stiffness and high durability. Combined, these features allow the coupling to withstand high levels of application punishment including high speeds, reversing, indexing, and other demanding application profiles.
Flexible Single Flex Aluminum Clamp Hub Coupling Advantages
The robust, precise A1C series is available in several compact sizes and models. It offers low inertia, and its integrated clamping hub system enables this coupling to fit into many applications:
Zero Backlash
Torsionally Stiff
Excellent for 24/7 Reversal of Loads Without Fatigue
Smooth Operation at High Speeds
Compact Design
A1C Aluminum Flexible Shaft Coupling Applications
Our next-generation Single Flex Composite Disc Couplings allow users to transmit high torque in a small envelope. These high-speed flexible aluminum hub couplings are ideal for pick and place automation systems, integrated packaging machines, and other applications where speed and repeatable accuracy are critical for keeping machines running at full speed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Applications may include:
Machine Tools
Printing Machinery
Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment
Linear Actuators
Surface Mount Technology (IC chip mounting)
