Our RINGFEDER® Locking Assemblies for Bending Loads are designed for highly loaded shaft-hub connections that must safely transmit substantial bending loads and radial loads in addition to torques and axial loads. Typical applications include belt drums in large-scale conveying systems for ore, coal and other bulk materials. Under rotating bending loads, the surface pressures between the locking assembly, drum shaft and drum end disc change continuously. High-quality materials, smooth-ground contact surfaces as standard and optimized geometries ensure reproducible coefficients of friction, controlled pressure distribution and high resistance to alternating loads. This effectively limits risks such as fretting corrosion, shaft or screw failures, axial movement and plastic deformation of the drum end disc. The extensive standard range comprises five series for shaft diameters of up to 1,000 millimeters, including self-centering versions, designs without axial displacement and solutions with reduced surface pressure. In addition, we provide customized solutions for exceptional installation, material and performance requirements. When properly designed, the backlash-free, force-fit clamping connections provide wear- and maintenance-free operation, extend the service life of highly loaded system components and reduce unplanned downtime and repair costs.
