Shaft end, A-side
The force transfer is friction-locked (backlash-free), via a clutch, via the cylindrical shaft end A, or optionally as a form-locking connection via a feather key groove according to DIN 6885. The bearings are designed for a service life of 30,000 hours.
Radial force
If the motors drive via pinions or toothed belts, then high radial forces will occur. Refer to the technical data for the permissible values at the shaft end, depending on the speed of rotation. Please use the program on our homepage for calculating the exact forces (www.beckhoff.com).
Axial force
Axial forces arise when assembling pinions or pulleys on the shaft and using right-angle gear units, for example. Please use the program on our homepage for calculating the exact forces (www.beckhoff.com).
Coupling
Double-coned collets, possibly in association with metal bellows couplings, have proven themselves as excellent, zero backlash coupling elements.
