SHS-440 TAS Schaefer Hydraulic Actuated Shrink Disc

• Application specific design / customization

• Rapid tightening and loosening in comparison with mechanical shrink discs

• Inner ring can be adapted to different sizes

• Maintenance and repair feasible customer-sided

• Transmission of high torques

• Relatively low pressure

Wherever there is a requirement to connect shaft and hub safely and quickly, the hydraulically tensionable shrink discs type "SHS" from TAS Schäfer GmbH are used. With the TAS-SHS series, TAS Schäfer GmbH has developed a hydraulically tensionable shrink disc type "SHS", which is used everywhere in drive technology for frictional shaft-hub connections. Due to its fast and safe clamping, it is particularly suitable for assembly on test benches and repetitive clamping operations. Furthermore, the SHS series impresses with its unique selling points, such as low pressure required for clamping, customer-side performance of maintenance and repair work, and the possibility of adapting the inner ring to different sizes.

Further development and the fulfillment of specific customer requirements as well as the highest quality standards are indispensable prerequisites in modern manufacturing today.

The TAS-SHS product range has been used thousands of times in many applications for years. All over the world, especially in wind turbines, on hydraulic motors and in gear test benches, hydraulically tensionable shrink discs of the "SHS" design can be found. The main function of a hydraulically tensionable shrink disc type "SHS" is to securely connect a shaft to a hub by means of frictional locking. For example, between a drive shaft and a transmission hollow shaft. The hydraulically tensionable shrink disc creates a backlash-free connection by pressing the hub onto the shaft. This type of connection is mainly used to transmit torque. The hydraulically tensionable shrink disc of the "SHS" series only provides the required forces and does not itself transmit any forces or torques between the shaft and hub. It is therefore not in the flow of forces. In the SHS products of TAS Schäfer GmbH, the basic principle of the mechanical, three-part shrink disc has been retained. This principle has been tried and tested for a long time. Here, the force-transmitting friction surfaces are strictly separated from the hydraulic system. This strict separation prevents oil contamination of these surfaces.
