Applications
Manufacturers install flexible shaft couplings in rotary equipment and machinery in order to connect rotary equipment to shafts and transfer torque. Examples of such machinery and equipment components include driveshafts, line shafts, power transmissions, wheels, and more. They also do things like isolate propeller pulse, dampen driveline vibration, and quiet gear chatter.
Flexible shaft couplings are also found in boats, hydraulic pumps, wind turbines, tube shafts, automobiles, paper making machines, printing machines, compressors, roll formers, and blowers.
Some of the many industries that rely on flexible shaft couplings include aerospace, automotive, construction, metal processing, mining, mineral processing, power general, quarry, and cement.
