Product Description

DFC Aluminum Jaw Spider Coupling – Zero Backlash Flexible Shaft Coupler for Servo Motor & Ball Screw

 

The DFC aluminum jaw spider coupling is a high-precision, zero-backlash flexible shaft coupler engineered for servo motors, stepper motors, and ball screw drives. Manufactured from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with H6 bore precision and an anodized surface finish, this DFC spider coupling delivers exceptional torsional rigidity, vibration damping, and misalignment compensation in compact CNC, automation, and robotics applications.
Featuring a German-imported polyurethane spider capable of withstanding temperatures up to 140°C, the DFC jaw coupling absorbs radial, angular, and axial deviations while maintaining zero rotary clearance – making it ideal for high-frequency reversing drives where positional accuracy is critical.
As a source factory manufacturer, Apexcoupling.com offers the DFC aluminum flexible coupling with full customization support, including different bore sizes on each end, non-standard dimensions, and special material options.

Key Features – DFC Aluminum Jaw Spider Coupling

 

Zero Backlash – Perfect for Servo & Stepper Motors
The DFC jaw coupling maintains zero rotary clearance thanks to the tight-fitting polyurethane spider and H6 precision bores. Essential for CNC machines, servo drives, and positioning systems requiring exact motion control.
Aerospace-Grade Aluminum Alloy Body
Machined from high-strength aluminum on 5-axis CNC equipment for superior concentricity. The anodized surface treatment extends service life by 30% compared to conventional finishes and resists corrosion in humid or weak acid/alkali environments.
German-Imported Polyurethane Spider
The Plum blossom shape (jaw-type) PU spider offers excellent wear resistance, oil resistance, and electrical insulation. Rated for 140°C continuous operation, it effectively absorbs shock and vibration while compensating for shaft misalignment.
H6 Precision Bore – Smooth Fit
H6 tolerance bores ensure a precise, slip-free connection to motor and ball screw shafts. 3D chamfered edges (OD25 and above) protect hands during installation and prevent shaft scoring.
Multi-Directional Misalignment Compensation
Compensates for radial, angular, and axial deviations simultaneously. The flexible spider design protects connected bearings and extends the life of servo motors and precision gearboxes.
Bi-Directional Rotation – No Wind-Up
Suitable for forward and reverse operation with identical torsional characteristics in both directions. No hysteresis or wind-up effects.
Split Design – Easy Installation
The clamping-screw split hub design allows for quick assembly and disassembly without moving connected equipment. Simply slide onto the shaft and tighten the 12.9-grade high-strength screws.
Custom Bore Combinations
Both hubs can be machined with different bore diameters to connect mismatched shafts (e.g., servo motor 6 mm to ball screw 8 mm). Contact us with your exact shaft dimensions.

Applications – Precision Motion Control

 

The DFC aluminum spider coupling is the preferred choice for high-precision motion systems:
  • ⚙️ Servo Motors – Servo-to-ball screw, servo-to-gearbox connections
  • 🔩 Ball Screw Drives – CNC lathes, milling machines, 3D printers
  • 🤖 Automation Equipment – Robotic arms, linear actuators, pick-and-place machines
  • 📐 Stepper Motor Drives – Engraving machines, laser cutters, plotters
  • 🏭 Packaging Machinery – Filling, sealing, labeling equipment
  • 🔬 Medical & Laboratory Equipment – Precision pumps, analyzers, diagnostic devices
  • 📦 Textile & Printing Machinery – High-speed spindles, roller drives

How to Select the Right DFC Coupling

 

Step 1: Confirm Space Constraints
Choose the outer diameter (D) and length (L) that fit your installation envelope.
Example: OD14 mm × L22 mm for compact servo motors.
Step 2: Check Bore Range
Ensure your shaft diameter falls within the available bore range.
Example: OD14×L22 supports bores from 3 mm to 7 mm.
Step 3: Specify Bore Sizes
Both ends can have different bores. Simply note your requirements when ordering.
Example: “Bore 4 mm × 6 mm” or “3 mm × 5 mm”.
Step 4: Verify Torque & Speed
Confirm your application torque and RPM are within the coupling rating.
Example: 1.1 N·m torque, 1,000 RPM max for OD14×L22.

FAQ – DFC Aluminum Jaw Spider Coupling

 

Q1: What is the torque and speed rating of the DFC OD14×L22 coupling?
A: The DFC OD14×L22 has a rated torque of 1.1 N·m and a maximum speed of 1,000 RPM. It is designed for small servo motors and stepper drives.
Q2: Can the two ends have different bore sizes?
A: Yes. The DFC jaw coupling supports different bore diameters on each hub. For example, you can order a 4 mm × 6 mm combination to connect a servo motor to a ball screw with different shaft sizes.
Q3: What makes the DFC coupling suitable for servo motors?
A: The DFC coupling features zero backlash, H6 precision bores, and high torsional stiffness – all critical for servo systems where positional accuracy and rapid reversing are required.
Q4: What is the maximum operating temperature?
A: The German-imported polyurethane spider is rated for continuous operation up to 140°C. The aluminum hub can withstand even higher temperatures.
Q5: How does the DFC coupling compensate for misalignment?
A: The flexible PU spider absorbs radial, angular, and axial misalignment simultaneously, protecting motor bearings and extending equipment life.
Q6: Do you offer larger sizes for heavier loads?
A: Yes. The DFC series is available in multiple sizes, with larger OD models handling significantly higher torque. Contact us with your torque and shaft requirements for size recommendations.
Q7: What surface treatment does the DFC coupling have?
A: The aluminum hub receives an anodized oxidation treatment for enhanced corrosion resistance, wear protection, and a 30% longer service life compared to untreated aluminum.
