MARTIN FLEX COUPLING/เฟล็กซ์คัปปลิ้ง มาร์ติน
-
Martin flex couplings are highly torsionally flexible tyre couplings with progressive torsional deflection characteristic. The salient
feature of the Martin flex couplings is that the coupling hubs are supplied with commercially available taper bushes for
nominal torques of up to 11500 Nm. This allows easy and time saving mounting of the coupling hubs on the shafts. Special
tools are not required.
The torque transmission element of the coupling is a rubber tyre reinforced with fabric plies. This tyre transmits the
torque without torsional backlash, it is wear-resistant and maintenance-free. The rubber tyre is slit, thus permitting easy
radial installation with no need for axial movement of the coupled machines.
Tyrex shaft couplings reduce torque surges substantially. In applications where torsional vibrations occur the stresses in the
drive trains are minimized thanks to their high torsional flexibility.
The use of a rubber tyre as the transmission element compensates to a large extent for axial, radial and angular shaft
displacements.
