14mm - 1/2" Rigid Coupling

19.00

Introduction:

Generally, the motor shaft with a 14mm diameter will be inserted in one end, and a shaft, or lead screw also measuring 1/2" in diameter will be inserted into the other end. The screws that clamp the shafts will be tightened. These steel clamping coupling are for use with high torque motors and high inertia when the motor is changing directions.

Description:

14mm to 1/2" rigid coupling is intended for use with a stepper motor that has a 14mm shaft. The coupling is a clamping coupling where the coupling is tightened around the shaft using screw to tighten.

The clamping rigid coupling uses 4 screws to clamp the shafts. Each shaft is tightened with two screws each. the overall length of the coupling is 42mm. The metric inside diameter of the 1/2" end is 12.7mm. The material of this coupling is aluminum.

Step 21: Driver Caps, Resistor Networks and Mosfets
This tutorial is dated, if you are considering a CNC for your personal use, we would highly recommend purchasing a kit that is very stable from our wide range of machines available. The resistors are in, right? Ah, I know, you want to see the complete assembly before you dig in. Ok, on to this part of the assembly. Please don't ask me what Mosfets are, but the word sound cool! I can tell you that they stand for Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor. I have personally read about fifty descriptions of this electronic animal and I still can't figure it out. It doesn't say much for a Berkeley grad! Well, I'm open to some plain English interpretations without the word "drain" in them. Are you still with me?

This creative coupling solution comes from another generous user of the site. He has devised a way to couple the motor to the leadscrew with standard aluminum tubing. Marc has graciously allowed me to show you this creative idea.
