Chain couplings: little maintenance, more power
Chain couplings are ideal for elastic torque transmitting over a wide quickness range. They are powerful, effective and robust e. g. concerning higher temperatures and minor angle or parallel displacement.
Furthermore, they are low-maintenance items, they are simple to separate by merely opening the coupling chain, and they provide an excellent cost / performance ratio for numerous applications in machine and plant construction. The wide software range is due to the many coupling sizes that can be supplied.
Mounting of the particular coupling sprockets with hardened toothing is completed inversely on both opposite shaft extensions. However, certain stipulated requirements as to position deviation and parallel displacement need to be met. The coupling chain – a measured duplex roller chain regarding to ISO 606 – is normally placed around the toothing of both sprockets and closed through a connecting link.
Chain couplings are utilized to transmit power between two shafts. Generally, chain couplings will be set up off the end of a motor or reducer (gearbox) and utilized to connect to a machine for effective power transmission. A total chain coupling contains two hubs (or sprockets), one coupling chain, which appears very similar to a strand of dual roller chain and a cover. Not all applications will use a cover, but also for both security and coupling existence they are suggested. Chain couplings are usually utilized in low velocity, high torque applications and invite for 
2 degrees misalignment between shafts. Chain couplings are considered an economical way to transmit power between shafts. Please get in touch with Bearing Service to greatly help provide or style in the proper coupling for the application.
The Ever-power chain coupling, composed of two-strand roller chains and two sprocket wheels, features simple and compact structure, and high flexibility, power transmission capability and durability.
Also, the chain coupling enables basic connection/disconnection of shafts one another, and the use of the housing enhances basic safety and durability.
