Couplings chosen with application requirements in mind last longer, improve precision, and protect other system components from premature failure. • Engineers should choose couplings that compensate ...

Machine-vision and optical-inspection systems demand precise motion control, and this requires precision components. One often overlooked but important component is the zerobacklash coupling that ...

Gear couplings are usually machined using hob and slotting cutter in a predetermined circular path. The tool feed path determines tooth profile. This article designs a new feed path. A new ...

Proper shaft alignment of directly coupled machines has proven to be one of the greatest money savers for machinery-intensive industries over the last 25 years. When poorly done, usually for lack of ...

If you operate a vessel, its machinery, without a doubt, will require alignment many times during the course if its life. When misalignment is present components will be worn, efficiency will be lost, ...
