The Round Oldham Coupling for T8 Leadscrew is a precision mechanical component designed to connect a T8 leadscrew to a stepper motor or other drive mechanism. This type of coupling is particularly effective in compensating for misalignment between the motor and the leadscrew, reducing stress on components and ensuring smoother operation. The Oldham coupling features a three-part design with two hubs and a central disc, allowing for slight lateral and angular misalignments while maintaining efficient torque transmission.
