MIC Series | Miniature Couplings

Product catalog summary
Overview: The MIC Series Miniature Couplings are designed for use with Magtrol's torque transducers and dynamometers. They feature high torsional stiffness, low inertia, and high rotational speed capabilities. An electrically isolated version is available upon request.
Specifications: The couplings are available in various models with rated torque ranging from 0.18 N·m to 36.2 N·m and maximum speeds up to 50,000 rpm. They accommodate axial, radial, and angular misalignments and have a diameter range of 2.38 to 28 mm.
Applications: These couplings are ideal for drive train installations, particularly in high-speed applications where alignment and balancing are critical. Single-element couplings are suitable for low-speed applications.
System Configuration: The document includes figures illustrating the use of double-element (MIC-5) and single-element (MIC-6) couplings in supported and suspended installations.
Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided for each model, with both metric and imperial units. The document notes that standard versions are manufactured with integer values and a standard tolerance of H7.
Options & Accessories: The document describes Magtrol's TS and TM Series In-Line Torque Sensors, which offer precise torque and speed measurement. Custom motor test systems are also available, designed to test various motors under different conditions.
Ordering Information: Instructions are provided for ordering specific coupling models, including details on diameter and tolerance specifications.

MIC Series | Miniature Couplings-1

MINIATURE COUPLINGS FEATURES ▪ For use with Magtrol TM, TMB, TMHS and new TS In-Line Torque Transducers, as well as HD, WB and PB Dynamometers, and HB Brakes ▪ High Torsional Stiffness ▪ Low Inertia ▪ Low Weight ▪ High Rotational Speed ▪ Electrically Isolated Version (available on request) ▪ Diameter Range: 2.38 ... 28 mm ▪ Version with Double Clamping Screws (available on request) Fig. 1: MIC-5 | Double Element Miniature Couplings MIC Miniature Couplings provide the ideal complement to Magtrol’s TM / TMB / TMHS / TS In-Line Torque Transducers, when they are to be mounted in a drive train. They can also be used with any Magtrol Hysteresis (HD Series), Eddy-Current (WB  Series), Powder Brake (PB  Series) Dynamometer, and Hysteresis Brake (HB Series). In a drive train installation, double-element miniature couplings are the ideal complement, although single-element couplings can be used for low speed applications in a suspended installation of the toque sensor. The couplings consist of one (MIC-6) or two (MIC-5) disc packs, two clamping hubs and a spacer. They are both torsionally stiff and flexible in order to compensate for axial and angular misalignment when connecting two shaft ends. The MIC-5 (double-element coupling) also provides compensation for radial misalignment. The higher the speed of the application, the more care is required in selecting the coupling and assembling (alignment and balancing) the drive train configuration. Your Magtrol sales representative can assist you in choosing the right coupling for your transducer. On demand, MIC Series coupling are available in electrically isolated version, suitable for temperature up to 100 °C (125 °C max. temperature, short term). SYSTEM CONFIGURATION Fig. 2: Supported installation Mandatory for high speed applications; uses MIC-5 doubleelement couplings. Fig. 3: Suspended installation For low speed applications only; uses MIC-6 single-element couplings to create a shorter drive train. © 2021 MAGTROL | Due to continual product development, Magtrol reserves the right to modify specifications w

MIC Series | Miniature Couplings-2

MIC SERIES SPECIFICATIONS MODEL RATINGS Rated Torque Maximum Torque Maximum Speed a) Torsional Spring Rate b) MISALIGNMENT Axial b) Radial MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS Diameter Range f) Balancing Quality a) The specified maximum speed may require specific balancing. By default, Magtrol delivers couplings without balancing. b) Axial and angular misalignments and torsional spring rate refer to single-element coupling (MIC-6-xxxx). f) The standard versions are manufactured with integer values; the standard tolerance is H7. All diameters and tolerances are possible, within the defined max. range. Please...

MIC Series | Miniature Couplings-3

(Double-element coupling) (Single-element coupling) NOTE: Original dimensions are in metric units. Dimensions converted to imperial units have been rounded up to 3 decimal places. a) The MIC-5-2470 and MIC-5-3620 models are also available in a version with 4 clamping screws for higher torque transmission. (specifically recommended for TM 308) c) For small range torque sensors (TM / TMB / TMHS 301, 302, 303), tightening of coupling should be done with caution, in order to not damage the measuring section of sensor. b) The standard versions are manufactured with integer values; the standard tolerance...
