Lika offers a comprehensive range of couplings to meet a variety of solid shaft
installations: couplings specific for encoders and motors, flexible couplings, rigid
couplings, transmission couplings, electrically insulated couplings, couplings for
special environments, etc. What’s more, we can provide you with competent ad-
vice, so your system can work perfectly in every application.
MOR is the Oldham-type flexible coupling series perfect for
integration into stepping motors, general-purpose motors and
rotating shafts in general. The spacer’s and hub’s design (with set-
screw, clamping, key and clamping + key fixing options) allows to
reduce the overall foot-print while widening the bores selection as
well as increasing the rated torque at the same time. The spacer, in
hard polyacetal, affords a projection structure which enables larger
lateral and angular misalignment to be effortlessly accepted since
the projection acts as a support. Thus the bending moment does not
arise and the allowable angular misalignment is increased up to
3° (instead of 1° - 1.5° in comparable models).
MOR’s torque reaches 160 Nm. In addition MOR is able to excel-
lently absorb the vibrations since the amplitude under natural fre-
quency is low. MOR is available in the range from 6 to 68 mm
(0.236” to 2.677”) outer diameter and 1 to 38 mm (0.039” to
1.496”) bore diameter and is electrically insulated (up to 20 kV).
It can be ordered with different bore diameters at hubs.
The allowable operating temperature is between -20°C and +80°C
(-4°F +176°F).
The MOM Oldham-type flexible coupling is distinguished by its
spheroidal graphite cast iron (EN-GJS-400) metal spacer that
connects the hubs. It yields an increased impact and fatigue resi-
stance compared to resin spacers and allows to reach the highest
torque (up to 352 Nm) and torsional rigidity (up to 46,000 Nm/rad)
while providing optimal ductility properties at the same time. Fur-
thermore it excellently compensates for large lateral (up to 1.4 mm
/ 0.055”) and angular misalignments (up to 2° instead of 1° - 1.5°
in comparable models). So it is ideally suited for integration into
general-purpose motors and rotating shafts with low speed
and high torque characteristics in severe industrial applications.
The spacer is self-lubricating for virtually maintenance-free endu-
ring service. MOM flexible coupling is offered in a very wide se-
lection of bore diameters ranging between 3 mm and 42 mm
(0.118” to 1.653”), with setscrew, clamping, key and clamping + key
type hubs. In addition it can be ordered with different bore diame-
ters at hubs.
