Beam Couplings

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the specifications and features of beam couplings by Huco Dynatork, including Multi-Beam, Single-Beam, and Step-Beam types. These couplings are engineered for torsional rigidity, zero backlash, and accommodate various misalignments without moving parts.
Specifications:
  • Materials: Available in stainless steel, aluminium, and acetal, suitable for shaft diameters from 1mm to 38mm.
  • Temperature Range: Operates between -40ºF to +284ºF (-40°C to +140°C).
  • Design Features: A 3-start helical-cut design enhances torque capability and reduces wind-up compared to single beam versions.
Types of Beam Couplings:
  • 3-Beam Couplings: Provide increased torsional stiffness with specific dimensions and order codes.
  • 6-Beam Couplings: Offer torsional stiffness and increased radial compliance, available in relieved and non-relieved versions.
  • Step Beam: Designed for low inertia, electrical isolation, and cost-effectiveness.
Dimensional Data: Includes tables detailing dimensions, bore sizes, mass, fasteners, angular and parallel offsets, torsional stiffness, and peak torque for various coupling sizes and types.
Key Parameters:
  • Angular Offset: Specific degrees vary by coupling type and size.
  • Parallel Offset: Specified in millimeters, indicating allowable misalignment.
  • Torsional Stiffness: Measured in Nm/rad, indicating rigidity under torsional load.
  • Peak Torque: Provided in lb.in (Nm), indicating maximum torque capacity.
Recommendations: Choose a coupling size where the peak torque exceeds the application torque multiplied by a service factor to ensure reliability and performance.

Beam Couplings-1

Beam Couplings Multi-Beam Single-Beam Step-Beam • Torsionally rigid design • Zero backlash • No moving parts • Single beam simple coupling compatible with industry standard types • 3-Beam single stage for increased torsional stiffness • 6-Beam two stage for torsional stiffness and increased radial compliance • Step Beam for low inertia, electrical isolation, low cost Beam couplings will readily accommodate any combination of axial motion, angular and parallel misalignment. The 3 start helical-cut design provides higher torque capability and reduced wind-up compared with single beam versions. Multi-Beam is available in three standard materials: stainless steel, aluminium and acetal, for shaft diameters from 1mm to 38mm.
