Description
Rotating shaft-driven mechanical components are commonly used in all forms of machinery that perform the various processes and functions of modern industry.
- Shaft misalignment will place stresses on shafts and related parts of the assembly such as bearings, which can result in early failure of both.
- Shaft ends can be misaligned radially or angularly, exhibit axial displacement, or experience a combination of all three.
- Drive couplings can be used to compensate for shaft misalignment, whether the misalignment is an intentional or an unintentional part of the design.
