Blue motor coupling 5mm to 8mm blue shaft coupler for 3D printer
- Blue motor coupling made up of Aluminium Alloy.
- Its bore is 5 mm to 8 mm coupling and gears used for connecting stepper motor shaft to lead screw.
- It is mainly used in 3D printer, but it can be used in automation for several purposes.
- Its function is to transfer power from one end to another end.
- A rigid coupling is one that does not allow axial or radial motion between the driving and driven shafts.
- A rigid coupling consists of two flanges, one mounted on each shaft.
- Rigid couplings require exact alignment between shafts otherwise considerable wear on the bearings and seals will occur.
- Rigid couplings are used mainly on low speed or low torque applications where the shafts are an identical size and are not subject to misalignment.
Solid coupling Uses:
- Alter the vibration characteristics of rotating units.
- Connect driving and the driven part and also Introduce protection against overloads.
- Provide for misalignment of the shafts. To introduce mechanical flexibility.
- Reduce the transmission of shock loads from one shaft to another.
- To slip when overload occurs.
- It best fits into linear actuators where the Stepper Motor is fitted into aluminium profile.
Package Includes:
- 1 piece of Solid blue coupling 5x8mm
