V-belt drive misalignment exists when the driver and driven sheaves are not properly aligned. Misalignment can take either the form of angular or parallel (offset) misalignment, or a combination of ...

Understanding how helical, curved beams operate — how their spiral cuts accommodate angular and parallel misalignment, axial motion, and system vibrations — is the key to knowing how they will perform ...

The objective of optimized shaft alignment is to increase the operating life span of rotating machinery. To achieve this goal, components that are the most likely to fail must be made to operate ...

Torque, shaft misalignment, stiffness, rpm, and space requirements are some of the factors to consider when selecting a coupling for servo applications. Servocouplings are typified by their ability to ...
