Schmidt
Offset Couplings

Schmidt Offset Couplings offer great flexibility in shaft displacement while maintaining undisturbed power transmission at constant angular velocity.

The Offset Couplings provide a smooth flow of power for maximum product quality. And, unlike universal joints, there is no performance loss by increasing shaft offset.


The L100 series

  • Parallel shaft displacement: 0.156" - 3.026" (linear displacement)
  • Torque ratings: 55 inlb - 1300 inlb
  • Shaft speeds up to 4000 RPM
  • Parallel shaft displacement: 0.437" - 17.2" (linear displacement)
  • Torque ratings: 637 inlb - 459,000 inlb
  • Shaft speeds up to 2500 RPM

Special coupling sizes can be manufactured for any specified customer requirement.

Benefits:
Wide range of parallel shaft displacement without sideloads.
Constant transmission of torque and angular velocity. Zero backlash, models available.
Elimination of radial vibration.
No performance loss by increasing shaft displacement.
Double universal joints can provide large shaft displacement - but cause radial forces at the joints, velocity variation, and require large lateral space.
Overcome these problems – by the use of a Schmidt Offset Coupling.
