Oldham couplings are used in a variety of applications where shaft misalignment is a concern and where precise positioning is required. Some common applications of Oldham couplings include:
Machine Tools: They are used in machine tools, such as lathes and milling machines, where shaft misalignment is a concern and precise positioning is required.
Textile Machinery: Oldham couplings are used in textile machinery, such as spinning and winding machines, where precise positioning is required.
Printing Presses: Oldham couplings are used in printing presses, where precise positioning is required.
It is important to note that the specific application requirements will determine the best type of coupling to use, and Oldham couplings may not be suitable for all applications. It's always important to consider the operating conditions and performance requirements when selecting a coupling.
