Safety clutches for indirect drives
Drive specialist Enemac has various application-specific solutions in its range for securing indirect drives. When selecting the coupling, the mounting situation and the type of clamping are important.
Indirect drives are characterized by the fact that the entire drive train is not located on a common axis. The drive shaft is offset parallel to the output shaft. The torque is transmitted via belts, gear wheels or chains, depending on the requirements and magnitude of the torque, and is not used to compensate for misalignment, but to transmit torque without backlash or maintenance.
Enemac offers a wide range of application-specific solutions for securing indirect drives. Not only the mounting situation, but also the type of clamping on the output shaft is decisive when selecting the coupling. For example, the ECA, ECB and ECK types are fixed to the shaft by means of conical clamping. If, on the other hand, a keyway is preferred for fastening, the standard variants ECE, ECG, ECI or ECU come into consideration.
Enemac also offers its customers two special versions for special applications: ECH (with integrated sprocket) and ECR (made entirely of stainless steel). If a clamping hub is required as a fastening solution, the designer can fall back on types ECP or ECOL. as
