What Is A Marine Coupling?
There are many types of Marine couplings, including rigid couplings and flexible couplings. Rigid coupling uses a rigid joint to connect the engine axis and propeller axis to each other, transferring power is stable and reliable, but the disadvantage is that it can not compensate the axis error, easy to produce vibration and noise. The flexible coupling adopts a flexible connection mode, which can compensate the axis error and prevent vibration and noise, but the stability is poor when transmitting power.
The functions of Marine couplings include power transmission, compensation for axis errors and separation protection. In terms of power transmission, the coupling is able to transfer the power of the engine to the thrusters to push the ship forward.
In terms of compensating the axis error, due to the deformation of the hull and the incomplete coincidence of the propeller and the engine axis, it is easy to produce axis deviation, and the coupling can compensate the axis error through the flexible shaft coupling, universal joint and other structures to reduce the hull vibration and noise.
Marine coupling is an important part of the Marine transmission system, which is mainly used to connect and transfer the power of the Marine engine. It is able to convert the rotation of the engine into the power of the thrusters to propel the ship forward.

In terms of separation protection, in the event of an accident or emergency, the coupling can be quickly separated to protect the engine and transmission system.
