Couplings chosen with application requirements in mind last longer, improve precision, and protect other system components from premature failure. • Engineers should choose couplings that compensate ...

Machine-vision and optical-inspection systems demand precise motion control, and this requires precision components. One often overlooked but important component is the zerobacklash coupling that ...

Operators can avoid failure of couplings during hydraulic fracturing by using a design window when designing a casing string. Hydraulic fracturing treatments produce higher stress levels in couplings.

In recent years, environmentally-assisted cracking has caused failures of many Grade P110 couplings during fracturing operations, causing enormous economic loss to the oil and gas industry. Factors ...
