FCL elastic pin coupling is a type of coupling with specific application scenarios, suitable for medium and high power transmission, but not suitable for working parts with specific requirements for vibration reduction or strict noise control.
The main features of FCL elastic pin coupling include:
It has a certain ability to compensate for the relative offset between the two axes, which is achieved by using several non-metallic material column pins placed in the mating holes between the two halves of the coupling and the inner surface of the outer ring.
This type of coupling transmits torque through column pins to connect the two halves of the coupling, making it suitable for small and medium power shaft systems with good base rigidity, high centering accuracy, low impact load, and low vibration reduction requirements.
The allowable compensation amount for axis displacement of FCL elastic pin coupling is relatively small because its elastic deformation is limited. Although it can compensate for axis displacement and elasticity, the compensation amount is relatively small.
The structure of this coupling is relatively simple, easy to manufacture, does not require lubrication, the elastic sleeve is easy to replace, and there is no need to move the half coupling.
The elastic components of the FCL elastic pin coupling are made of nylon, which has high strength and is suitable for corrosive environments with a temperature range of -20 to 70 ºC. The type and size of the half coupling shaft hole can be freely combined to meet different application requirements.
Overall, FCL elastic pin couplings are an economical and practical coupling solution suitable for most standard industrial applications, but may not be the best choice in specific environments that require strict control of vibration reduction and noise
