Germany GLACIER coupling GLACIER model GLACIER price

GLACIER coupling is a torsionally rigid coupling. It has no backlash even under load. Even when misalignment generates load, the rigid coupling still transmits torque rigidly. Light weight, ultra-low inertia and high sensitivity. Maintenance-free, with strong oil resistance and corrosion resistance. Made of aluminum alloy and stainless steel. Available in set screw type, clamp type and split type. Product models with different bore sizes at both ends are also in stock.

GLACIER coupling features

1) One-piece metal elastic body; 2) Zero backlash, capable of synchronous operation; 3) Elastic action compensates for radial, angular and axial misalignment; 4) High torque rigidity and excellent sensitivity; 5) Identical rotational characteristics in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions; 6) Maintenance-free, oil resistant and corrosion resistant; 7) Available in aluminum alloy and stainless steel materials; 8) Main fixation methods are set screw and clamping.

GLACIER coupling application range

Flexible couplings are made of aluminum alloy. Some manufacturers also offer flexible couplings made of stainless steel. In addition to corrosion resistance, stainless steel flexible couplings also increase torque capacity and rigidity, reaching up to twice that of similar aluminum alloy products. However, this increase in torque and rigidity is partially offset by the increased mass and inertia. Sometimes the negative effects outweigh the advantages, forcing users to seek other types of couplings.

GLACIER coupling installation and fixation

1) Flexible coupling set screw fixation: Two set screws with a gap of 90º lock onto the shaft. This is a traditional fixation method. Since the tip of the screw contacts the shaft center, it may cause damage to the shaft center or make disassembly difficult. 2) GLACIER flexible coupling clamp screw fixation: Uses the tightening force of hexagon socket head cap screws to contract the slit, tightly clamping the shaft center. This method is convenient for installation and disassembly, does not damage the shaft center, and is a very common fixation method. 3) Flexible coupling keyway fixation: Suitable for high torque transmission. To prevent axial slippage, it is usually used in combination with set screw fixation and clamp screw fixation. 4) Flexible coupling D shape hole fixation: Typically, if the motor shaft is D shaped, and set screws cannot secure it, the coupling bore can be machined into a D shaped hole matching the motor shaft size. Used with set screw fixation, this prevents slippage. 5) Clamping hub fixation: Tightens the four set screws on the end face of the GLACIER coupling to compress the clamping hub for secure fixation. Suitable for connecting and fixing high-torque stepper motors and servo motors, such as clamping hub disc couplings, clamping hub jaw couplings, clamping hub bellows couplings, and clamping hub flexible couplings.
