*1: Values based on the results of a durability test under rotation in a single direction, confirming durability of 1 million rotations or more.
*2: If ambient temperature exceeds 30°C, be sure to correct the values using the temperature correction factor in the table.

The allowable operating temperature of MOR-C is -20°C to 80°C.

Depending on the bore diameter, the shaft slip torque may be lower than the coupling torque.⇒Slip torque

These are test values based on the conditions of shaft dimensional allowance: h7, hardness: 34-40 HRC, and screw tightening torque of the values described in MOR-C dimension tables. They are not guaranteed values.
Slip torque changes with usage conditions. Carry out tests under conditions similar to actual conditions in advance.

◎: Excellent ○: Very good

  • This is an oldham type flexible coupling.
  • Slippage of hubs and a spacer allows large eccentricity and angular misalignment to be accepted.
  • The eccentric reaction generated by misalignment is small and the burden on the shaft is reduced.
  • The simple structure allows the unit to be easily assembled.

Application

Sputtering device / Parts feeder / Industrial sewing machine / Amusement device

Precautions for Use

In case of mounting on D-cut shaft, be careful about the position of the D-cut surface of the shaft. ⇒Mounting and Maintenance
There are sizes where the hex socket head bolt exceeds the outer diameter of the coupling and the rotating diameter is larger than the outer diameter. Please be careful of the interference of coupling. Rotation Diameter

Spacer's Projection Structure

Spacer's projection structure allows large angular to be effortlessly accepted. It reduces burden on the shaft.

MOR/MOR-C/MOR-K/MOR-CK_CFlexible Couplings - Oldham Type

In the oldham-type coupling whose spacer has no projection, the spacer and hubs interfere with each other near outside diameter, so that the max. angular misalignment is small and that the bending moment arises on the shaft.
NBK's oldham type coupling allows the angular misalignment to be easily accepted since the projection serves as support. Bending moment does not arise. Therefore, the max. angular misalignment is large and the burden on the shaft is reduced.


Eccentric Reaction Force

MOR/MOR-C/MOR-K/MOR-CK_TTechnical Information

These are initial slippage load values of hubs and a spacer.
After running-in operation, the slippage load becomes small, the load on the shaft due to misalignment becomes lowered, and the burden on the shaft bearing is reduced.

Change in static torsional stiffness due to temperature

This is a value under the condition where the static torsional stiffness at 20°C is 100%.
Changes in the static torsion spring constant within the operating temperature are shown in the graph.
Before using the unit, be aware of the deterioration of responsiveness.

Specification Changes

As described below, for the MOR Flexible Couplings, the conventional torque notation has been stated as the value for one-directional rotation without load fluctuations. To clarify the conditions under which the torque values are applicable, we will change the notation to separately indicate the One-Directional Rotation Torque and the Forward/Reverse Rotation Torque.
