Magnetic Coupling Variations
A device that can transfer force through space without depending upon physical contact is referred
to as a magnetic coupling. To perform either in a rotary or linear function, magnetic forces, both
attractive and repulsive, are employed. There are a couple of parts to a coupling - a driver and a
follower. The part that is connected to the prime mover is the driver. The follower reacts to the
movement of the driver via magnetic interaction without engaging in physical contact. The
transmission can limit or eradicate mechanical vibrations through this connection. There a number
of other advantages to non-physically interacting coupling through magnetization, but there are
just two types of couplings.
Couplings for Torque
Torque couplings transfer forces rotationally. Coaxial couplings are considered a subcategory of
torque couplings. Inside the ID of the second member, a coaxial magnetic coupling is completely
nested. The two parts divide a common axis which
