Rigid, elastic, gear, and bellows couplings. Universal cardan or chain joints. Numerous types and systems for different applications, each with distinct characteristics. They often need to be adapted through modifications and mechanical machining to fit installations and applications.
Since they are critical components of a more complex system, transmission joints must ensure proper mechanical power transmission while minimizing any misalignment or vibration. Francia Srl - as a supplier of industrial components and technical products - offers a range that includes:
- quick-release or telescopic steel universal joints
- flexible chain joints to absorb misalignments or vibrations
- various types of torsionally flexible couplings
- cast iron rigid couplings with rough or finished bores to measure
- disc couplings
- complete and extendable cardan shafts
(vsee section https://franciacatene.it/it/prodotti/giunti-di-trasmissione ››)
The main industrial sectors we supply include manufacturing, focusing on transmissions, presses, and conveyors. The applications involve: connection to pumps, fans, and compressors.
As with most catalogue products (see ››), we can provide transmission joints with mechanical machining or pre-assembled according to specific instructions.
Main characteristics:
Rigid couplings: no flexibility or compensation for misalignments.
Elastic couplings: assorbono le vibrazioni, sopportano carichi elevati, compensano disallineamenti, smorzano le forze trasmesse
Gear couplings: compensate for small axial and angular misalignments. The internal gears allow for good torque transmission under varying loads.
Bellows couplings: compensate for any angular, axial, or parallel misalignment. Their metal structure makes them compatible with high temperatures. Ideal for high speeds.
Chain couplings: suitable for limited misalignments, ideal for high-torque transmissions. They require constant lubrication.
Oldham couplings: recommended for the food and beverage industry due to stainless steel hubs and a central disc made of plastic material.
Disc couplings: ideal for high speeds, where high precision and maintenance-free operation are required.
Universal cardan joints: typically used to connect misaligned shafts or those that must operate with angular misalignments. Suitable for the automotive industry, agricultural machinery, heavy conveyors, motors and turbines, industrial vehicles like earth-moving machines, etc.
