Jaw Style Coupling Selection Procedure
The variety system for identifying the correct jaw coupling size and elastomer needs making use of the charts proven about the following pages. There are actually 3 parts 
to be picked, two hubs and one particular elastomer. Once the shaft size of the driver and driven on the application are of your identical diameter, the hubs selected will probably be the identical. When shaft diameters vary, hubs selected will differ accordingly.
Info required in advance of a coupling is often chosen:
HP (or KW) and RPM or Torque of driver
Shaft sizes of driver and driven gear and corresponding keyways
Application description
Environmental conditions (i.e. intense temperature, corrosive problems, area limitations)
Measures In Selecting A Jaw Coupling
Step 1: Figure out the Nominal Torque of your application through the use of the next formula:
Nominal Torque = in-lb = (HP x 63025)/RPM
Nm = (KW x 9550)/RPM
Step two: Applying the Application Support Factors Chart 1 choose the service issue which most effective corresponds for your application.
Stage 3: Calculate the Design and style Torque of your application by multiplying the Nominal Torque calculated in Step 1 from the Application Service Aspect established in Phase 2.
Design and style Torque = Nominal Torque x Application Support Aspect
Stage 4: Working with the Spider Performance Information Chart 2， select the elastomer material which best corresponds for your application.
Step five: Utilizing the Jaw Nominal Rated Torque Chart three , find the proper elastomer materials column for the elastomer chosen in Stage four.
Scan down this column on the initial entry where the Torque Worth from the suitable column is higher than or equal to your Style and design Torque calculated in Phase 3.
As soon as this value is located, refer towards the corresponding coupling size within the very first column on the Jaw Nominal Rated Torque Chart 3 .
Refer to the optimum RPM value for this elastomer torque capability to make sure that the application demands are met. When the necessity will not be happy at this point, one more sort of coupling might be necessary to the application. Please seek the advice of Lovejoy engineering for help.
Step 6: Assess the application driver/driven shaft sizes on the maximum bore dimension out there about the coupling selected. If coupling bore size is just not huge sufficient for the shaft diameter, pick the following greatest coupling that may accommodate the driver/driven shaft diameters.
Phase seven: Applying the UPC number choice table , locate the ideal Bore and Keyway sizes demanded and locate the amount.
