THE SIGNIFICANCE AND SPECIFIC OPERATION METHODS OF UNIVERSAL COUPLING ALIGNMENT
2024-05-31 15:00The significance of universal coupling alignment: The alignment of the cross axle universal coupling is important because it is related to the service life of the universal-joint coupling. Incorrect alignment will lead to improper installation and may seriously shorten the service life of the universal cardan shafts coupling.The purpose of alignment is to make the center lines of the driving shaft and the driven shaft on the same straight line when the machine is working. The accuracy of alignment is related to whether the machine can operate normally.
The main method of aligning the universal joints couplings is to take 4 points up, down, left and right, fix them with a block gauge, then rotate the shaft where the gauge is fixed, and read the gauge reading at each point:
1.First adjust the left and right sum and the up and down sum readings to be basically the same, so that the motor or reducer is not tilted;
2.Confirm that the end where the dial indicator is located is the fixed reference end, and adjust the left and right positions of the reducer according to the left and right readings to ensure that the left and right dimensions are within the allowable error range;
3.After adjusting the left and right dimensions, use adjustment pads to ensure that the upper and lower errors are within the range according to the upper and lower readings (the difference in dimensions after the anchor screws are tightened is required, and then the thickness of the pads is confirmed).
The above is just one method of aligning a universal coupling. Alignment is a job that requires experience. For technical engineering, it requires continuous accumulation of knowledge related to universal joints couplings to complete.If the company encounters problems during installation and wants to find a professional cross axle universal coupling manufacturer for purchase and alignment, please also bring specific drawings or parameters in order to find the appropriate model specifications.
