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 ...

In application areas as diverse as industrial, mobile, marine, machine tools, agricultural equipment and offshore installations, machinery that needs to generate high forces in a compact package will ...

The objective of optimized shaft alignment is to increase the operating life span of rotating machinery. To achieve this goal, components that are the most likely to fail must be made to operate ...

Couplings in most turbomachines attach the driver to the driven piece of machinery. High-performance flexible couplings used in turbomachines must perform three major functions: (1) efficiently ...

Torsionally stiff rigid couplings are best used on shafts that are already in proper alignment, so are well-suited to pump, mixer, drive shafts, and other power transmission applications. Stafford ...
