Mechanical Accessories: Couplings, Sealings, Pulleys,

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of mechanical accessories used in power transmission and rotating machinery. Participants learn the principles, construction, functions, and applications of different types of couplings, sealings, and pulleys. The course covers rigid and flexible couplings and their selection based on operating conditions and equipment requirements. It explains mechanical seals, gaskets, O-rings, packing, and other sealing solutions used to prevent leakage and contamination. Participants understand pulley types, belt-drive arrangements, speed ratios, and torque transmission principles. The course introduces common failure modes such as misalignment, wear, overheating, leakage, belt slipping, and vibration. It covers installation, alignment, maintenance, inspection, and troubleshooting practices for mechanical accessories. Participants learn how operating conditions, loads, speed, temperature, and environment influence component selection. Practical considerations for improving equipment reliability, efficiency, and service life are also discussed. The course equips participants with the knowledge required to select, install, maintain, and troubleshoot couplings, sealings, and pulleys in industrial machinery.
