The difference between universal joint and coupling


After many years of experience, customers often purchase universal joints, which are confused with couplings. What is the difference between universal joints and couplings:
Universal joint is a kind of coupling of mechanical transmission parts. It can be said that universal joint is a coupling.
There are many types of couplings, including plum blossom couplings, expansion sleeve couplings, elastic couplings, parallel couplings, diaphragm couplings, universal couplings, etc., all of which are couplings. Different, the selection and use conditions are also different.
Universal joints are also called universal couplings. Universal couplings are mostly used in occasions where the torque is large and the concentricity of the two shafts is poor.
