In mechanical and plant engineering, installation space is typically very limited. However, machine safety cannot be neglected as there are many possibilities for torque overload situations. The solution: a safety coupling with fully split clamping hubs; R+W model SKH.
The advantages are clear:
- precise torque limitation protection
- simple lateral drop-in assembly
- high cost-efficiency due to reduced assembly and downtimes
In the event of a machine crash, the SKH coupling separates the input and output sides within milliseconds, thus preventing application damage and expensive machine downtime. This is made possible with the spring-loaded ball detent design and disc springs specially developed for R+W precision safety couplings. The connection using two fully split clamping hubs allows for easy installation in the confined machine space. The standard torque capacity offered ranges from 0.1 to 2,800 Nm, with higher torques possible upon request.
