What is Gear Coupling?
When used as a mechanical connector the gear coupling joins two rotating shafts to transmit torque through its capacity to handle minor misalignment. A gear coupling functions by connecting hubs that have external teeth which match the internal teeth from a sleeve for secure movement. The gear coupling design delivers high torque capabilities together with misalignment features which enables their usage across numerous heavy-duty applications across different industrial sectors. The demanding environments benefit from Fenner Gear Coupling because it delivers superior performance while maintaining extended durability.
How Does Gear Coupling Works?
The operation of gear coupling occurs when the teeth from the coupling hubs merge with those of the sleeve. The sleeve includes interior grooves which receive teeth from external surfaces of the two hubs. The rotating shaft depends on the hub teeth to reach the sleeve which distributes torque to the connected shaft. Secure and efficient power transmission flows through a gear-to-gear connection that supports angular, radial, and axial misalignment between shafts. Fenner Gear Couplings achieve their purpose of effective power transmission in different industrial setups due to their precise engineering design.
Why Should We Grease Gear Coupling?
Gear coupling performance relies on proper maintenance because lubrication reduces mechanical loss while extending component lifespan. Proper application of lubrication helps avoid excessive heat development while shielding gear teeth from detrimental metal-to-metal rubbing. The grease absorbs shock loads and deals with vibrations so that coupling failure happens earlier than expected. The lifespan of a coupling extends while its performance becomes better and it maintains dependable operation when properly greased. The correct selection of grease becomes essential for high-load environments where breakdowns need to be avoided and operational efficiency must be maintained.
Why Gear Coupling is used?
Gear couplings serve numerous industrial requirements because they transmit large torques across heavy machinery systems. The design makes these couplings optimal when precise alignment cannot be achieved as well as when regular misalignment occurs. The resilient gear coupling construction enables its extensive implementation within mining operations together with steel manufacturing sectors and pumps and compressors systems. New Zealand-based Fenner Gear Coupling develops power connections which stand out for their reliable performance during tough operational conditions. The gear coupling system provides robust torque transmission and accepts dimensional mismatch because of its design making it perfect for industrial use to deliver power consistently without causing mechanical system damage.
Applications:
- For heavy loads.
- For high-speed operation.
- For rotation rates below 100 rpm requiring strong torque.
- For rotation with sliding operation.
- When the distance between shafts is large and connected with a spacer.
- Not suitable for low horsepower applications.
HUBS :
The teeth of Gear Hubs are crowned and are generated by involute system. The amount of crowning and backlash values
are so chosen as to ensure the best results in torque transmission, greater flexibility and smooth operations.
SLEEVES :
The internal teeth of the sleeves are generated to ensure correct profile. The coupling sleeves are joined together with hightensile steel bolts (class 8.8 IS : 1367) fitted using a gasket in between them.
‘O’RINGS :
The setting of special ‘O’ Rings at the ends of coupling hubs prevents leakage oflubricants and entry of dust. The ‘O’ rings can also withstand high degree of temperature upto 120 C.
SEAL CARRIERS :
Seal carriers have been provided for sizes from FGC 11 to FGC 19 facilitate inspection and replacement of ‘O’ rings without disturbing the alignment.
POWERRATINGS :
The normal power ratings are given in the Table. For selection of the correct size of couplings, proper service factor depending on the type of machines and the peak load should be considered.
SERVICE FACTOR:
Generally, for medium duty use a service factor of 1.5. For heavy duty use a factor of 2 and for extra heavy duty a factor of 3 should be used. For special applications please contact MSB with full details.
