Metal profiles - Import export

The flexible joint mounted on the encoder shaft grants a very good coupling, without parallel and angular mis-alignment, and avoids overloads, which can damage the bushings life. Elap measuring wheels are fit for the use in touch with metal, steel profiles, varnished surfaces, plastic materials, paper, cardboard, wood, fabrics and leather; they offer an excellent resistance to oil, fuels, ozone and environmental agents.

These joints are normally made up of an elastomeric structure in which, by a curing process or other technological process, metal profiles are inserted to change, at set points, the stiffness or bearing capacity of the elastomeric structure. There are two main sub-groups depending on the mechanism which is used to obtain the expansion/shrinkage capacity of the joint, namely: by elastic deformation, with shear stress, of appropriately prepared suitable elastomeric areas; by elastic deformation of the elastomeric profiles the designed geometry of which is changed by normally flexural stresses. A characteristic of this type of joints is the presence, at the level of the congested surface, of a series of transverse gaps required for the development of the necessary elastic deformations.
