Couplings

It provides meticulous assistance with analysis

With the backlash-free Heliflex, Orbit Antriebstechnik offers a compact stainless steel coupling for laboratory applications. It enables precise movements, compensates for misalignment, and withstands demanding conditions.

These days, automated processes have made their way into laboratory technology as well. Whether it’s for dispensing minute volumes of liquid, positioning, retrieving, and sorting during sample processing, or for the precise adjustment of measurement heads in microscopy—compact, miniature-format drive systems are at work everywhere, providing agile support to ensure that research and analysis processes run efficiently and reliably. Due to hygiene requirements and high demands for media resistance, corrosion-resistant steel is often indispensable when selecting materials for drive units.

The Heliflex spiral-cut coupling made of stainless steel is the ideal customized compensation coupling for this application. It is a one-piece, backlash-free design and is available in the smallest dimensions and bore diameters—features that allow it to integrate seamlessly into delicate and precise drive trains. Are shaft misalignments also part of the equation? It handles that with ease as well, effortlessly compensating for angular, radial, and axial misalignments. And finally, more good news—even extremely low temperatures, such as those intentionally created in laboratory freeze-drying systems, won’t cause it to freeze solid.
