1. Functions
Different coupling functions can be used in the same assembly, and these functions determine the choice of coupling:
static function ;
kinematic function ;
dynamic function ;
assembly and disassembly function ;
safety function ;
progressive function.
While the static and kinematic functions are linked, the other functions remain independent of each other.
1.1 Static function
The shafts to be connected by a coupling are the shafts of stand-alone machines. These are guided in their respective housings by means...
