Workpieces measuring up to approximately 50cm are typically clamped manually and mechanically using three- or four-jaw chucks, or automatically through pneumatic or hydraulic means. However, when dealing with larger workpieces, planar disks come into play. These disks securely hold much […]
With the KG-HS coupling series, JAKOB Antriebstechnik offers a high-speed version of the popular KG metal bellows coupling. It is manufactured with clamping hubs in a splitted hub design on both sides. Assembly and disassembly are no longer difficult, even […]
The tried-and-tested SKB-KP series safety coupling has been used for decades to provide mechanical protection for drive units. It has already proven its effectiveness in hundreds of applications, especially when used as collision protection in the feed axes of machine […]
Safe and accurate transmission of torques is essential for precision drives of cross cutters. This is ensured by the use of steel bellows couplings with force-fitted shaft-hub connection. The metal bellows couplings of the KXL series from JAKOB Antriebstechnik GmbH […]
Torsionally rigid metal bellows couplings are essential components in modern high-speed test rigs. Bearings are subjected to endurance tests under realistic conditions to analyze the effect of different lubricants on their sliding properties. To ensure these tests deliver precise results, […]
JAKOB Antriebstechnik offers the metal bellows steel coupling KGH, which is manufactured in the extremely easy-to-assemble split-hub design, also as a stainless steel version (KGH-VA). Assembly and disassembly of the coupling is no longer a problem, even in confined installation […]
The elastomer couplings from Jakob have been expanded by a series. With the new EKM-VA, the tried-and-tested EKM type has a stainless steel version. One of the strengths of the material is its resistance to chemicals, such as those used […]
The power clamping nuts MCA and MCG from JAKOB Antriebstechnik are well-tried clamping devices in production. Up to now, the required nominal clamping force was precisely set by the user using a torque wrench. This is a sensible method for […]
For demanding applications in specialized high-speed test benches, torsionally rigid, flexible couplings are the ideal choice. The thin-walled metal bellows used not only offer high flexibility but also reliably compensate for shaft misalignments and dampen vibrations. JAKOB’s KSD couplings are […]
The metal bellows coupling of the KP series is characterized by its short design and a 4-wave bellows with two radial clamping hubs. This compact design is ideal for applications with minimal shaft spacing and limited space. The high torsional […]
