Custom Machine & Tool Co., Inc. (CMT) introduces the Concentric Maxi Torque Keyless Bushing Connection System, designed for small shafts and drive components in power transmission and motion control markets. This system offers easy installation, precise positioning, and removal of drive components without traditional keyways or setscrews.
System Overview
The system works through a mechanical shrink fit, using a setscrew to force a tapered bushing into a matching hub taper. This compresses the bushing, securely clamping the pulley to the shaft. The setscrew can also be reversed to release the fit, facilitating quick adjustments or repositioning. This design reduces shaft damage and allows for compact, lightweight drive designs.
Key Benefits
- Precision: Ensures low radial runout, reducing vibration and supporting higher drive speeds.
- Reliability: Offers superior torque capacity compared to conventional methods.
- Economical: Eliminates the need for extended hubs and reduces costs associated with shaft modifications.
