Description
What is the Elastic coupling Nil Union model 1?
The elastic coupling Nil-Union Model 1 is a mechanical component designed to connect two shafts allowing some flexibility to compensate for misalignments, absorb vibrations and provide overload protection.
These couplings are commonly used in power transmission systems, such as those involving gearboxes, motors and industrial machinery.
Resistance to misalignment
The coupling is designed to cope with shaft-to-shaft misalignment, considered the second most common source of vibration after unbalance. Whether it is parallel misalignment, angular misalignment or a combination of both, the Model 1 offers an effective solution..
Metal sprockets and Nylon sprocket sets
The combination of metal sprockets and nylon sprockets provides exceptional durability. The nylon used in the sprockets prevents wear on the contact surface, offering outstanding vibration absorption power and mechanical strength.
Versatility of application
This coupling is not only ideal for gearbox input and output, but can also be used in torque limiters, clutches, brakes and any application requiring the assembly of two shafts in alignment.
Parallel or radial misalignment
Identified by parallel but separate shaft centrelines. The Nil-Union Model 1 coupling addresses this deviation to prevent operational problems.
Angular or axial misalignment
The angular deviation, evident from the angle between the centre lines, is effectively handled by the ability of the coupling to adjust to variations in the spatial plane.
Combined misalignment
The most common situation, characterised by simultaneous parallel and angular deflections, finds a suitable solution in Model 1.
