New NER Series Echt-Flex disc coupling
Introducing Tsubaki’s new NER Series Echt-Flex disc coupling
Tsubaki’s Echt-Flex couplings are non-backlash, lube-free couplings with high torsional stiffness to maximize the benefit of servomotors. The NER Series Echt-Flex coupling uses a newly developed disc and optimized bolts to provide higher capacity with improved handleability in a compact unit. Tsubaki’s original center unit structure also dramatically reduces mounting time.
This structure consists of two pairs of discs (leaf springs) with a space and flanges on both sides. After centering, just fix the hubs and center units using a small torque wrench – couplings can be mounted in about half the time.
Features of the NER Series include:
Substantially higher torque, allowing for greater downsizing options
Center unit structure can accommodate large shaft bore diameters
Non-backlash, high torsional stiffness, no lubrication, and a long service life
Wide variety of options available
RoHS compliant, environmentally friendly
You’ll find NER Series couplings in pumps, presses, cooling towers, automobile testing devices, and a wide variety of other applications. NER Series can be flange mounted, and long composite (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) spacer types are also available.
