Festo FK-M6 Flexo Coupling

The flexo coupling, also known as elastic coupling, shaft compensating coupling, or torque coupling, with type number FK-M6 from Festo is a mechanical coupling element for connecting shafts. It has the dimensions 5 x 2 x 2 cm and weighs 0.03 kg. Flexo couplings transmit torque between two shafts and simultaneously compensate for slight angular, radial, and axial misalignments. They also serve to dampen shocks and vibrations in the drivetrain. Typical applications can be found in mechanical engineering systems, precision drives in automation technology, and in conveying and packaging machines.
