Internal clamping set

An internal clamping set is a special type of connecting element that is used to connect a shaft to a hub. This connection technology is often used in mechanical engineering applications to create a secure and torque-transmitting connection between shaft and hub.

Structure and function of the internal clamping set

The internal clamping set usually consists of several components, including a sleeve, pressure rings and screws. The sleeve is pushed onto the shaft and pressed firmly against the hub using the screws. This creates a positive connection that prevents the shaft from rotating relative to the hub, as the inner diameter of the sleeve is reduced and the outer diameter of the inner clamping set is increased.

Advantages of the shaft-hub connection with an internal clamping set

The use of an internal clamping set offers several advantages. Firstly, it enables simple assembly and disassembly of the connection without additional machining of the shaft or hub. In addition, the high rigidity of the connection ensures reliable power transmission and minimizes play and vibrations.

Areas of application and use of internal clamping sets

Internal clamping sets are used in a wide range of applications, particularly in rollers, motors, pumps and other rotating machines. They are particularly suitable for applications where precise positioning and high torques are required.
