Avtron Encoders offers a wide range of different couplings to pair with your shafted encoder. Choose from magnetic, flexible helical, and flexible disc couplings depending on your need and application.
To pick the coupling you need, start by looking at your encoder model and application. Helical flexible couplings work best for light mill duty encoders with small amounts of misalignment. For more misalignment in light duty applications, shift to magnetic couplings. For harsher environments (even with large misalignment), look at our selection of flexible disc couplings to find the right product that you need. Then find the right size you need to mate with your encoder and motor. We offer couplings in both metric and inch sizes to fit any kind of shaft.
Couplings are the perfect way to help protect the life of your encoder. Shaft run-out, or "wobble" can cause excessive wear and tear on the bearings in your encoder, which can destroy the encoder and cause costly downtime for your business. Our couplings help to protect from shaft run-out by absorbing the excessive loads and forces that it causes.
Don't let shaft run-out destroy your encoder investment, order a coupling today!
