Characteristics
- Applicable motors
MWS MWSS Servomotor – – Stepping motor ◎ ◎ General-purpose motor ◎ ◎ ◎: Excellent ○: Very good
- Property
MWS MWSS Zero Backlash ◎ ◎ High Torque ○ ○ High Torsional Stiffness ○ ○ Corrosion Resistance(All S.S.) – ◎ ◎: Excellent ○: Very good
- This is a metal spring coupling with single-piece construction. Slits are made into a cylindrical material.
- A plate spring formed by slits allows angular misalignment, and end-play to be accepted.
- There are two types of units made of aluminum alloy or all stainless steel.
Application
Transport device/XY stage/Parts feeder
Selection
The area bounded by the shaft diameter and rated torque indicates is the selection size.
Selection example
In case of selected parameters of shaft diameter of φ 5 and load torque of 0.8 N•m, the selected size for MWS,MWSS is MWS-20,MWSS-20.
Thrust Reaction Force
Slip Torque
Concerning the sizes shown in the following table, please note that the shaft’s slip torque is smaller than the max. torque of MWS-C,MWSS-C .

These are test values based on the condition of shaft’s dimensional allowance: h7, hardness: 34 – 40 HRC, and screw tightening torque of the values described in MWS-C,MWSS-C Dimension table.
Change in static torsional stiffness due to temperature
This is a value under the condition where the static torsional stiffness at 20°C is 100%.
MWS,MWSS ’s change in torsional stiffness due to temperature is small and the change in responsiveness is extremely small. However, if the unit is used under higher temperature, be careful about misalignment due to elongation or deflection of the shaft associated with thermal expansion.
