Schmidt Couplings

• Schmidt couplings enable a variable parallel offset between two shafts
• Especially good for roll applications whether it be paper processing or converting applications 
• Constant speed velocity and very compact
• Extremely low backlash

Schmidt Offset Coupling: Provides the utmost in precision for parallel offset shafts. Transmits constant angular velocity and torque in a wide range of parallel shaft misalignments. Imposes no sideloads on shafts or bearings and eliminates radial shaft vibrations. No performance loss for increasing offset. It provides large floor space savings because of its compact design.

Inline Coupling: A linkage coupling designed with high torsional stiffness, this coupling accommodates small parallel shaft misalignments at constant angular velocity. Designed as a dropout coupling, it can be easily installed and offers excellent drive performance for low to medium shaft speeds and medium to high torque applications.

5-D Coupling: Provides parallel shaft misalignment and a ± 5° angular misalignment with moderate axial shaft displacement capability. This coupling maintains constant angular velocity at all misalignment modes. Recommended for high torque, low RPM applications, the coupling has spherical roller bearings which are easy to maintain.
