4 Introduction Torsional Stiffness, Flexible Multiple-Disc Couplings GERWAH, Backlash-free Couplings are a 100% steel construction. The flexible portion of this coupling consists of a disc pack developed with the help of FEM analysis made of stainless steel. The steel hubs are connected to the disc packs by means of precision sleeves and highly resilient bolts. Axial misalignment Radial misalignment Depending on customer requirements, the hubs can be attached to the shafts in different ways, e.g. by means of shrink disc or - particularly inexpensive - with locking assemblies. This guarantees a really backlash-free connection of the two shaft ends that is simple and trouble free. The disc packs guarantee high transmissible torques while compensating for axial, radial and angular misalignments. Angular misalignment 4

6 Basics GERWAH : The Advantages of the System 1. No Backlash An important property for synchronous operation or for machines that are frequently used in start/stop or reverse operation. GERWAH Disc Couplings are ideally suited to applications in which the positioning accuracy of the control system in both directions is important. 2. Torsional Stiffness The design of the coupling guarantees a high level of torsional stiffness, which is an important property for applications in packaging machines, servomotors drives, printing presses and machine tools. 5. Long Service Life The highly accurate disc pack insures optimum force distribution, while its flexibility also protects against vibrations from the drive. GERWAH Disc Couplings do not wear, so that a long service life is guaranteed. 6. Maintenance-Free Operation GERWAH Torsionally Rigid Disc Couplings are maintenance-free and do not require greasing or cleaning. 3. High Temperatures GERWAH Rigid Disc Couplings can be used under extreme temperature conditions up to 240 C / 460 F, for example in hightemperature fluid pumps. 7. Installation Position GERWAH Torsionally Rigid Disc Couplings are designed for horizontal installation. In vertical installation situations the spacer may need to be supported (see sketch page 59). 4. High Speeds Due to the very strict production tolerances, GERWAH Rigid Disc allows precise vertical alignment and a high level of true running accuracy, making it ideal for applications involving high speeds even with irregular rotary forces. Application example: Coupling with parasitic current insulation 6

54 Technical Information Selection Guide The selection of the coupling size depends entirely on the torque to be transmitted and required shaft sizes. However, for the selection of the coupling type, application conditions (e.g., shaft misalignments, expansions and operating speeds) must be taken into consideration. For any special applications, please consult with us. When selecting a coupling size, make sure that under all operating conditions its torque capacity and speed range are not exceeded. 1. Calculate the driving torque (T AN ) to be transmitted from T AN (in-lbs) = HP/RPM T AN (Nm) = 9550 KW/RPM 2. Determine required coupling nominal torque capacity (T KN ) by finding the appropriate service factor (SM) in Table 1 for your application. Multiply the torque calculated above (T AN ) by this service factor. T KN (in-lbs) = T AN SM Find T KN in coupling data sheets that is larger than the calculated T KN. This will be correct size of the coupling. NOTE: GERWAH Torsionally Rigid Disc Couplings can transmit higher torques for a short period of time without having to consider an additional service factor. Please consult coupling data sheets for maximum torque values. 3. Check if existing or predicted axial, angular and radial misalignments are within permissible values as shown in the catalog. If any one of the misalignments is close to the maximum allowable, the maximum misalignment in the other directions and the torque capacity will be effected. For this reason, we recommend selecting a coupling with more misalignment capacity than required. See empirical formula: DK r 100% + DK r 4. Verify the maximum hub bore and speed required. Do not exceed the maximum values for the coupling. NOTE: For a given hub size, larger shafts can be used with the RINGFEDER Shrink Disc rather than with traditional keyed connections. 5. If the RINGFEDER Shrink Disc or Locking Assembly connection is used, verify the torque capacity of the locking device connection is less than the couplings torque capacity. The locking device torque capacities for each shaft size can be found in the appropriate catalog. 6. Use Fig. 1 to verify if your coupling does or does not need to be dynamically balanced. 54 (Installation situation) (Data sheet) DK a DK w 100% + DK a 100% < 100% DK w Fig. 1 The balancing class of the standard elements is Q6,3 - VDI 2060 medium speeds.

57 Technical Information Machinery Alignment The life of the coupling is directly affected by the alignment accuracy of the two coupling halves. Careful initial alignment will allow the coupling to operate at full capacity and tolerate for some future operational misalignments (i.e. equipment settling). For this reason, the maximum misalignment values given in the next tables are 30% of the maximum values for the coupling. Keeping all three directions of misalignment within these limits will increase the coupling life. Shaft diameter h7 Shaft tolerance inch inch / / / / / / Table 3: Standard shaft tolerances h7 Axial Alignment 1. Bring components into the best visual alignment possible. Position the hubs axially so that the distance between shaft ends is within min. and max. dimensions S 1 (single flexing) and S 2 (double flexing) for standard couplings. See figures 3 and 4, page 55. For non-standard couplings, check corresponding coupling drawing. 2. Now position first hub so that the shaft end is flush with the hub face and lock in place.

Initial parallel alignment can be checked by using a straight-edge across the hub flanges (per Fig. 6, page 58) to measure the approx. distance (r) as shown in Table 4. Use a more precise method by using a dial indicator the parallel off-set is measured in at least two places 90 degrees apart while rotating one hub.

58 Technical Information Installing Disc Pack and Sleeve S 1 U 1. Once the hubs are aligned in the axial, angular and parallel directions, install the disc pack and sleeve. Figure 8 shows the hardware orientation for each coupling type. 2. Tighten the coupling bolts to the prescribed tightening torque (T L ) (see page 57, table 4). Use a torque wrench for this purpose, in order to ensure the necessary tightening torque. 3. It is useful to check the alignment one last time before finally fixing the coupling. To do this measure the height of the disc pack S1 at two positions at 180 degrees to one another (fig. 5). The difference between the two measured values may not exceed the value U (page 57, table 4). Fig. 5 CAUTION: All rotating equipment is potentially dangerous and must be properly guarded. It is the user s responsibility to check for all applicable safety codes and provide suitable guards and protection. All protective shields must be mounted and tested for clearance before initial operation. Fig. 6 Fig. 7 only size 17 and 32 Fig. 8: Hardware arrangement 58

59 Technical Information Misalignment and Misalignment Factor f1 The maximum misalignments stated in the tables only apply if they occur individually. If there is a combination of misalignments, the permitted individual misalignments are reduced accordingly. The combined total angular misalignment D tot is a function of the angular misalignment angular and offset misalignment radial of the shafts, according to the following formula: Non-Standard Spacers Many GERWAH Disc Coupling applications require special spacer lengths and dimensions.
