Servo industry

In the servo sector, servo motors are used to move and position machine parts with absolute precision. This places high demands on the drive train and its individual components.

In automation technology, machine parts such as grippers on a robot arm are accelerated and decelerated very quickly, resulting in high overload and holding torques in the drive. To meet these requirements, JAKOB Antriebstechnik offers servo couplings with bellows or compensating carbon tubes. This compensates for any misalignment in the input and output, while at the same time ensuring that the rotary movement is absolutely angularly synchronized. In addition, any heat generated during operation must be taken into account. Aluminum components are replaced with steel or stainless steel components for certain applications. The ‘smart’ servomotor in combination with high-quality components is also ideally suited to the requirements of Industry 4.0.

Areas of application: – Inking rollers for printing machines – Industrial robots – Tool changers – Rotary tables
