Candy Controls
Encoder Couplings
Quick Facts
- Zero backlash, flexible shaft
- Low inertia
- Polyester resin with glass fibers
- Electrical isolation
Product Overview
Two designs, one manufactured from fiberglass, the other consists of two aluminum hubs with an elastomer insert. Encoder couplings connect feedback devices to the load or process; they are not designed to be torque-transmitting. These couplings protect the feedback device or encoder from misalignment while also providing electrical isolation.
