Half Gear Coupling HGC 3

Gear Couplings are distinguished by their mechanical flexibility and compensation of Angular, Parallel, and Axial misalignments of the connected shafts. They are made for extensive use in Metal Rolling Mills, Paper Machinery, Cranes, Dredgers, Rubber and Plastic Industries, Cement Plants, Conveyors and Elevators, Compressors, Fans and Blowers, and other general Industries.

Flexible Gear Coupling basically consists of two hubs, with crowned external teeth and two outer sleeves with internal spur teeth.

Gear hubs and the outer sleeves are manufactured from carbon steel and are hardened to the required degree. They are machined to fine tolerance for proper meshing of the gears as well as for interchangeability.

Advantages of Half Gear Coupling HGC 3

• High torque and misalignment capacity
• sleeves with internal spur teeth.
• Absorbs shock and vibration.
• Requires minimal maintenance.
• Allows for angular and parallel misalignment.

SELECTION OF THE COUPLINGS:

1. Type of driven machine.
2. Power absorbed by the driven machine and Peak load.
3. Speed and Diameter of the connecting shafts and space available for accommodating the coupling.
4. Maximum misalignment to be compensated.
5. Surrounding temperature.
6. Any other special feature of the drive.
