At temperatures far below freezing, machines and their components reach their limits. Nevertheless, machine failures due to cold embrittlement of materials, for example in cold chambers or in countries with low temperatures, should be avoided, as such failures are associated with high costs.

With the SKB type, Jakob Antriebstechnik has a compact and powerful generation of safety clutches for overload limitation and collision protection for indirect drives in its range.

Modern, innovative mechanical engineering is characterized by decreasing external dimensions with constant or increasing overall performance. Drive technology has also committed itself to this development and the required connecting elements are a link that should not be underestimated.

Shaft couplings transmit rotary movements and torques from shaft to shaft. They also compensate for tolerances and mechanical errors that would otherwise lead to damage to drive or measurement configurations.

Jakob Antriebstechnik offers the KPP metal bellows coupling to meet the ever-increasing demands for higher performance.

With its Winergy product brand, Flender has reached the milestone of 200 GW of gearbox output for wind turbines delivered worldwide.

With the GN 1050 quick-release coupling from Ganter, components can be connected quickly and securely by simply clicking them on and off.

Pneumatic tools are only really useful if they perform to their full potential over the long term. Rodcraft provides important tips on how to diagnose performance losses and increase service life.

Couplings with flange mounting
The performance requirements of precision machines demand that every single component is considered and evaluated. Not least the flexible couplings with which the drive components are connected.
