*1: If ambient temperature exceeds 30°C, be sure to correct the rated torque and max. torque with temperature correction factor shown in the following table. The allowable operating temperature of MOC-C is -20°C to 80°C.

The shaft's slip torque may be smaller than the coupling's rated torque depending on the shaft bore. ⇒Slip torque

*2: These are values with max. bore diameter.

40°C to 60°C 0.70
60°C to 80°C 0.55

Slip torque

As in the table below, the clamping type MOC-C has different slip torque according to the bore diameter. Take care during selection.

These are test values based on the conditions of shaft dimensional allowance: h7, hardness: 34-40 HRC, and screw tightening torque of the values described in MOC-C dimension tables. They are not guaranteed values.
Slip torque changes with usage conditions. Carry out tests under conditions similar to actual conditions in advance.

◎: Excellent ○: Very good

  • This is an oldham type flexible coupling.
  • The spacer uses resin containing eco-friendly recycled carbon fiber. Higher-torque specifications than MOR.
  • Slippage of hubs and a spacer allows large eccentricity and angular alignment to be accepted.
  • The eccentric reaction generated by misalignment is small and the burden on the shaft is reduced.
  • The simple structure allows the unit to be easily assembled.
  • Compliant with the Japan Machine Accessory Association organizational standards (TES 1403).

Application

Sputtering device / Parts feeder / Industrial sewing machine / Amusement device

Precautions for Use

  • In case of mounting on D-cut shaft, be careful about the position of the D-cut surface of the shaft. ⇒Mounting and Maintenance
  • There are sizes where the hex socket head cap screw exceeds the outer diameter of the coupling and the rotating diameter is larger than the outer diameter. Please be careful of the interference of coupling.Rotation Diameter

Selection

Selection Based on Shaft Diameter and Rated Torque

The area bounded by the shaft diameter and rated torque indicates the selection size.

MOC/MOC-C_CFlexible Couplings - Oldham Type

Selection Example

In case of selected parameters of shaft diameter of φ 8 and load torque of 0.4N•m, the selection size is MOC-23.

Spacer's Projection Structure

Spacer's projection structure allows large angular to be effortlessly accepted. It reduces burden on the shaft.

MOC/MOC-C_CFlexible Couplings - Oldham Type

In the oldham-type coupling whose spacer has no projection, the spacer and hubs interfere with each other near outside diameter, so that the max. angular alignment is small (1° - 1.5°) and that the bending moment arises on the shaft.
NBK's oldham type coupling allows the angular alignment to be easily accepted since the projection serves as support. Bending moment does not arise. Therefore, the max. angular alignment is large (3°) and the burden on the shaft is reduced.


Change in static torsional stiffness due to temperature

This is a value under the condition where the static torsional stiffness at 20°C is 100%.
Changes in the static torsion spring constant within the operating temperature are shown in the graph.
Before using the unit, be aware of the deterioration of responsiveness.
