The most common accidents involving the use of machine tools include spindle crashes. Common causes include programming errors, incorrectly defined tools, disregarded interference contours, or unintentional high-speed operation. The forces involved are so enormous that components of the motor spindle, […]
The current model of the mechanical power clamping nut MDA combines the simplest, manual operation at low tightening torques with the highest clamping forces. The interior can multiply the manual tightening torque by means of a robust gear transmission with […]
Special high-speed test benches are used to test bearings. In these tests, the effects of different lubricants on the sliding properties of the bearings in the endurance test are checked. The structural design of such a test rig must meet […]
JAKOB Antriebstechnik now offers three stainless steel couplings as standard series. Including the metal bellows couplings KG-VA and KGH-VA as well as the WD-VA series of distance couplings, which is manufactured in the extremely easy-to-assemble split-hub design. Assembly and disassembly […]
In order to meet the ever increasing demands for higher performance, JAKOB Antriebstechnik offers the metal bellows coupling KPP. Its rated torque is above 600 Nm and the maximum torque at approx. 1200 Nm. It has to withstand operating speeds […]
Bellows couplings are used to connect two shaft journals, for example the motor and gear of a drive unit. They have to be torsionally rigid, flexible, easy to assemble, economical, precise and very resilient. The bellow couplings with internal teeth […]
The hydromechanical spring-loaded cylinders of the ZSF series from JAKOB Antriebstechnik offer robust and reliable clamping elements. These spring-loaded systems can be used wherever displaceable or movable machine parts must be temporarily clamped or locked. Other applications can be found […]
In order to find the right clutch for a drive train some factors have to be taken into account. The required torque range, the offset and the ambient temperatures of the clutch are particularly important. First, the required maximum torque […]
Workpieces up to approx. 50cm are usually mechanically and manually clamped with three- or four-jaw chucks, or automatically by pneumatic or hydraulic. If, however, the workpieces to be machined are larger, then planar disks are used. They also hold much […]
Elastomeric couplings are pluggable, backlash-free and flexible shaft couplings. The connection or compensation element consists of a plastic star with involute teeth and a high Shore hardness. This elastic coupling star is electrically insulating and has a good vibration damping […]
