Abstract
Flanged couplings are kind of rigid connections that are used to mate rotating shafts and transmit torque and power between them. They are applied when no relative motion should occur between the driving and driven shafts and an accurate shaft alignment is required. In the coupling, the flanges are connected to the ends of the shafts usually by keys and are attached together using a series of bolts on a bolt circle. In this chapter, a graphical method is proposed for designing flanged couplings in a facilitated manner.
