Application of diaphragm coupling: Diaphragm coupling is a high-performance flexible coupling widely used in shaft transmission of various mechanical devices, such as water pumps (especially high-power, chemical pumps), fans, compressors, hydraulic machinery, petroleum In machinery, printing machinery, textile machinery, chemical machinery, mining machinery, metallurgical machinery, etc., the birth of the diaphragm coupling seems to have brought greater pressure to the gear coupling. What is the reason? Reasons for choosing a diaphragm coupling: The cost of gear couplings is generally higher than that of diaphragm couplings. Gear couplings require many manufacturing steps and are therefore labor-intensive. In addition, the maintenance cost of gear couplings (regular lubrication, inspection and re-greasing, etc.) is much higher than that of diaphragm couplings, and diaphragm couplings have the following advantages: Disc couplings do not have radial clearance issues, so potential unbalance is lower. Diaphragm couplings generally do not require maintenance or inspection within five years and have a long service life. For gear couplings, we recommend that users check, clean and relubricate every 12-18 months. Diaphragm couplings eliminate "deadlock" and shaft breakage problems. The diaphragm coupling reduces the friction between the hub and the shaft. Summarize: The diaphragm coupling significantly reduces the forces acting on the connected equipment. Sliding forces generated by gear couplings are a factor of torque. The deformation force generated by the disc or diaphragm coupling is elastic and has nothing to do with torque. The bending force generated by the diaphragm coupling on the equipment bearing is about 40% of that of the gear coupling, and the axial force generated is about 10% of that of the gear coupling. Mechanical bearing life is sometimes considered when calculating return on investment.
