LM Series Torsional Coupling
The LM Series torsional couplings are designed specifically for diesel engine driven equipment. The LM couplings are highly torsionally compliant, allowing the engine to drive a relatively small inertia load safely from damaging torsional resonance over a wide speed range from low idle RPM to full engine speed. This task is accomplished by shifting the critical speeds far enough below the idle speed allowing full use of the entire working speed range of the engine with very few limitations. These engineered couplings affect an attenuated level of stress throughout the whole drive train by reducing vibratory torque to a very low level. The coupling selection should be verified with a Torsional Vibration Analysis of the system.
