Machine tools

Maximum precision will always play a major role in machine tools. But new topics such as the increasing demand for automation solutions and digitalization are also constantly presenting the industry with new challenges. JAKOB can meet these needs perfectly with high-quality and reliable components for the drive.

The torsionally rigid and backlash-free bellows couplings and safety couplings are manufactured to the highest standards.
If higher vibrations and shock loads do occur in a machine tool, or more precisely in the drive, we can perfectly neutralize these vibrations with our elastomer coupling and safety coupling with elastomer attachment and thus increase the service life of the drive train enormously.

Areas of application: – Positioning units – Backlash-free gears – Coolant pumps
– Spindle protection – Conveyor belt for chips – Lifting tables – Spindle drives (overload protection)

Examples of areas of application Machine tools

Use of a metal bellows coupling in a machine tool

Use of a power clamping spindle in the jaw box of a faceplate
