Miniature clutches provide compensation
The miniature couplings from Jakob are designed as servo compensating couplings for the offset or axial displacement of two axes.
Various versions are available for different applications such as tachos, NC axes, stepper motors, potentiometers, robot drives, linear units, handling devices, angle encoders or servo drives.
The shaft is fastened using a clamping ring or grub screws. The miniature couplings are available as bellows couplings, elastomer couplings or cross-slide couplings.
As bellows couplings, they are backlash-free and maintenance-free and designed for the transmission of high speeds. They are characterized by high torsional rigidity and a low mass moment of inertia. This enables the angularly accurate, backlash-free transmission of the rotary motion.
The compact elastomer miniature couplings as plug-in, backlash-free and flexible shaft couplings can compensate for slightly larger shaft misalignments. They are electrically insulating and have good vibration damping properties.
According to the manufacturer, the advantages of the cross slide coupling, which is also electrically insulating, include a short overall length, a large displacement capacity, low restoring forces, pluggability and the resulting combination of different bore diameters.
In normal operation, the couplings are maintenance-free and, if installed correctly, the Jakob miniature couplings have an almost unlimited service life. as
