Flexible coupling spider in TPU

What it is for

• A part that absorbs the misalignment between two shafts
• Correct a weakness of the original part instead of copying it
• Replace a part the manufacturer no longer supplies

Flexible coupling spider in TPU: a part that absorbs the misalignment between two shafts. We produce it to order, at the exact size your job calls for.

You do not need a 3D file to order. A dimensioned drawing, a photograph taken square-on with a ruler beside the part, or the broken part sent to us by post is enough: we rebuild the geometry and submit the file to you before anything is manufactured.

The three materials we recommend for this part. TPU, our default choice: rubber-flexible, and nothing else among the twenty does this job. It absorbs, it damps, it springs back to shape. PA6-CF: stiff, light, very low creep. This is the material for parts kept under permanent load that must not deform over time. PETG: the default functional choice. Holds to 70 °C, flexible enough to take a knock without snapping, and it does not crack the way PLA does.

We make anything from a micro part up to a 350 × 350 × 350 mm envelope, from a one-off prototype to a medium production run, at high or medium precision depending on what the part actually needs. All twenty workshop materials remain available for this part, from PLA to carbon-filled PPS rated at 200 °C: if your constraint differs from the one we assumed, tell us and we change material without changing the starting price.

Why work with us. The part you cannot find any more. Mould destroyed, manufacturer gone, reference discontinued: this is where we have no competition. A photograph, a set of dimensions or the broken part is enough to make it again. Short lead time, made in France. Workshop in Morsang-sur-Orge, near Paris. Firm quotation within 24 working hours, and every part inspected before dispatch. No tooling, no minimum order. Injection moulding needs a mould costing thousands of euros, paid back over tens of thousands of parts. Here there is no mould. One part costs one part. Order 1 unit or 500, the price hides no set-up fee.

Your part, to your dimensions. Send us your 3D file, a dimensioned drawing, a photograph, or simply the part to be copied: we reproduce it faithfully or adapt it, from a single unit, with no tooling cost at all. The images on this page show typical work and are not contractual.

The three materials we recommend

Click a material to open its page and download the manufacturer's datasheet (PDF).

Flexible coupling spider in TPU in TPU: temperature resistance 80 °C; slow to print, so more machine time for the same volume; other option, PETG if a little flex is enough.

Another material is possible: tell us the real constraint (temperature, UV, impact, contact) and we will suggest one.
