Controlflex from Schmidt-Kupplung is designed for the requirements of shaft encoders for RC bearings.
This encoder coupling compensates all kinds of misalignment with very low restoring forces and in a remarkably small envelope.
The coupling is electrically insulating with miniature bearings, builds short and always works with constant angular velocity.
The coupling manufacture also realises individual systems and encoder-coupling solutions optimised for specific applications.
These include, for example, shaft-encoder applications with positive locking and fail-safe for stage technology, with customer-specific hubs ball bearings for expanding or hollow shafts or with greater misalignment requirements.
