A high-tech company markets a machine that requires precise positioning. In it, they use zero backlash flexible couplings. When their coupling supplier raised their price by almost 50%, they went looking for an alternative supplier.
Mach Motion Products now offers drop in replacements for machined couplings that fit perfectly.
After a few months of testing, it was determined that performance matches that of the previous supplier. As a side benefit, the delivery from Mach Motion Products is always on-time since we inventory product dedicated to our OEM customers.
