Re: CIM direct drive

i am not sure what you really want to spin at over 5000 rpm's but I believe we did this on our poof ball shooter from AIM HIGH. It wasn't all that perfectly successful but we used a three piece jaw coupling I think.
It was some type of flexible disc coupling.

It is hard, running the CIM directly like this, to get much acceleration (read torque) ... it took awhile for our shooter to come up to speed and one of its problems was that as we shot the balls it would decrease speed and we would have to wait to come back up for proper trajectory.

If you anticipate doing a direct drive of the CIM for a wheel drive system
That would not be a good idea... I don't think that is your application though.

thanks
