  • Zero backlash couplings

    BERVINA flexible couplings are constructed from a one piece aluminium, steel or stainless steel section. There no wearing parts to require lubrication and they are constant velocity.

  • Zero backlash couplings

    WHEN fitting stepper motors, servomotors, gearboxes and encoders to machines, care must be taken to ensure all devices are co-axial (no angular or parallel misalignment). Failure to do so will place excessive loads on bearings and will reduce the life of the components.
