German Voith coupling Voith model Voith price

Voith couplings are components that connect the prime mover to the driven machine, with the primary function of overload protection. A torque limiter restricts the torque transmitted by the drive system by slipping when the required torque exceeds the set value due to overload or mechanical failure. It automatically re-engages once the overload condition is eliminated. This prevents mechanical damage and avoids costly downtime losses.

Features and applications of Voith couplings

1) Cross universal couplings enable two shafts that are not on the same axis, with large angular misalignment and significant axial displacement, to rotate continuously at equal angular velocities. 2) Cross universal couplings reliably transmit torque and motion. Their most significant feature is a large angular compensation capability. 3) Cross universal couplings use an integrated yoke head, enhancing operational reliability. 4) Cross universal couplings have a compact structure, high transmission efficiency, low noise, long service life, and are easy to maintain and repair. Cross universal couplings are suitable for transmitting torque in the shaft systems of machinery in metallurgical, heavy, petroleum, engineering, lifting and transportation, locomotive and rolling stock, light industry, precision, and control machinery, as well as other heavy machinery industries.

Voith coupling installation

Assembly technology for cross universal couplings: During assembly, remove burrs and clean all parts. Ensure that the centerlines of the bearing holes of the two intermediate welded yokes are in the same plane; the permissible deviation must not exceed 1°. The spline section should slide freely, and the joints should rotate flexibly. Clean the surfaces. Except for the flange end faces and end face keys which should be coated with anti-rust grease, apply one coat of anti-rust primer to the remaining surfaces, followed by paint (do not apply brush paint).

Voith coupling structure and maintenance

Cross universal couplings come in various structural types. Their most significant feature is a large angular compensation capability, compact structure, and high transmission efficiency. In practical applications, they are classified into heavy, medium, light, and small types based on the magnitude of the torque transmitted by the universal shaft. Types include cross-axis cross universal couplings, ball-cage cross universal couplings, ball-fork cross universal couplings, block-type cross universal couplings, ball-pin cross universal couplings, ball-joint cross universal couplings, ball-joint plunger cross universal couplings, three-pin cross universal couplings, triple-lever cross universal couplings, triple-ball-pin cross universal couplings, and hinged-lever cross universal couplings, among others. The most commonly used type is the cross-axis cross universal coupling, followed by the ball-cage cross universal coupling. Maintenance method for cross universal couplings: Lubricate regularly; it is recommended to inject oil once a week, or once daily under high-temperature conditions. To extend the service life of the universal coupling, adjust the cross shaft by 180 degrees during each disassembly to alternate the usage of the cross shaft journals.
