AEC Grid Coupling

Description

The AEC Grid Couplings are designed to handle significant torque despite their compact size. These all-metal flexible couplings are primarily used to reduce vibration and shock transmission while accommodating both angular and parallel misalignments within their operational limits. In the event of a heavy overload or excessive misalignment, the grid and cover act as a safety mechanism, failing to interrupt torque transmission and protect more expensive drive components from damage.

Compared to other couplings, grid couplings offer simpler installation and repair, and their high reliability leads to reduced and shorter maintenance inspections. ABS Grid Couplings are specifically engineered to provide flexible, efficient power transmission while safeguarding connected equipment from misalignment, shock loads, and vibration. The grid design absorbs impact and reduces vibration, extending the lifespan of both the coupling and the connected machinery.

The flexibility of the grid element accommodates angular, radial, and axial misalignment, all while maintaining high torque transmission. These couplings are ideal for industries such as mining, steel, cement, and sugar, where dependable power transmission and the ability to withstand high loads and operational stresses are crucial. Their robust design ensures long-lasting performance even in harsh industrial environments, ultimately extending the service life of the machinery they support.

The absorption of mechanical vibration of Taper Grid coupling

The absorption of mechanical vibration of Taper Grid coupling

Condition of Grid under light load

The vibrations and shocks are absorbed due to the curved surface of the teeth surface and the elasticity of the Grid when the Grid is operated with a straight line by receiving force from the outer surface of the teeth of the Hub.

Condition of Grid under normal load

When the load occurs, the part where the power is concentrated moves to the center of the teeth of the Hub and absorbs the shock load with the elasticity from the bending Grid.

Condition of Grid under shock load at start

Due to transient overload, the part where the power is concentrated moves to the innermost section of the teeth of the Hub, and it smoothly absorbs severe shock within the range of torsional elasticity of Grid.
