Clutch for collision protection
With safety against overload
Safety aspects such as collision protection are becoming increasingly important in mechanical engineering due to increasing automation and dynamization. With the SKB type, Jakob has a generation of safety couplings for overload limitation for indirect drives in its range.
The high user benefit of the SKB series consists of the interaction of various details. These include high disengagement torques, a compact design, simple installation thanks to a clamping ring hub, high concentricity and bearing load as well as simple adjustment of the disengagement torque.
Very high release torques can be achieved by using high-strength tempered steel with surface hardening or plasma coating of the functional surfaces. The particularly robust ball cage is of great importance for "disengagement impacts" at high speeds; the grease-lubricated disengagement mechanism is additionally protected against heavy soiling or washout by a labyrinth seal. Furthermore, the SKB series is equipped with clamping ring hubs, which allow significantly larger bore and shaft diameters compared to conical hubs.
Extensions and combination options
If required, the safety coupling can be extended with metal bellows or elastomer coupling attachments. Jakob offers a selection of hub designs and compensation elements in various sizes. According to the manufacturer, a modular system enables production in cost-effective batch sizes and short delivery times. as
