Flexible coupling Controlflex

shaftswith encodercompact

The core of the Controlflex is its unique functional element made of Delrin®. The design of this functional element - a flat parallel link system with flexure joints - combined with this technical plastic material gives the encoder coupling special properties. It enables displacement compensation on one level with the resulting advantage of an extremely compact design. Not only does it always keep an eye on absolute sync but it also protects your rotary encoder bearings at all times, even if several millimetres need to be compensated for. In almost every industry, rotary encoders and sensors monitor the precise workflow in a wide variety of processes. The Controlflex rotary encoder coupling is specially designed for absolute and incremental encoders with integral bearings – no matter whether with solid, expanded or D shafts. It is ideal for: Rotary encoders and encoders Measuring systems and sensors Angle encoders Absolute encoders Incremental encoders Cam limit switches Due to safety issues, lifting devices and stage control systems place special demands on machinery and machine elements. Owing to its precision, the Controlflex coupling is used as a connecting element for rotary encoders and cam limit switches in these areas of application. Equipped with additional positive locking in the form of a feather key groove in tolerance P9 and fail-safe with an anti-rotation device, it meets the highest safety requirements of this industry.
