ROTEX® AFN-SB special

0 - 35,000 Nm / jaw coupling with brake disk

The torsionally flexible jaw coupling ROTEX AFN-SB special is an elastomer coupling with brake disk (brake disk coupling).

Brake disk and spider of the elastomer coupling can be replaced when mounted without displacing driving and driven side.

Features

torsionally flexible coupling with brake disk (brake disk coupling / drop-out center design coupling)
damping vibrations
axial plug-in
compensating for displacements (axial, radial, angular)
maintenance-free

Properties of torsionally flexible jaw couplings:

ROTEX shaft couplings consist of two hubs (aluminium or steel) and a spider (elastomer ring / cam ring) made of T-PUR®(elastomer). The different degrees of hardness of the T-PUR® spider allow to adjust the level of damping and torsional stiffness of the elastomer coupling.

ROTEX couplings require few mounting space and thus allow for easy assembly/disassembly. The numerous types provide for maximum flexibility and meet with the different mounting requirements through various types of hubs.

Function of torsionally flexible jaw couplings:

Jaw couplings ensure torsional vibration-damping power transmission and offset shocks generated by irregularly operating machines.

In contrast to flexible couplings the connecting elements of which are stressed on bending and therefore to earlier wear, the flexible teeth of ROTEX couplings (elastomers) are subjected to compressive stress only. The benefit of the elastomer coupling thus is to withstand significantly higher loads.

The elastomers deform with load and high speeds. Sufficient expansion space must be provided.

All sizes of ROTEX jaw couplings have a maximum torsion angle of 5°. They can be mounted both horizontally and vertically.

Material of torsionally flexible jaw couplings:

Our elastomer material T-PUR® is resistant to higher temperatures and has a considerably longer service life than common polyurethanes. From a visual point of view we marked the T-PUR® (elastomer) material by the colours orange (92 Shore A), purple (98 Shore A) and light green (64 Shore D).
