DRE distance couplings features 

• KBK line shafts with elastomer connectors are flexible shaft couplings that allow long distances to be covered.
• Torque transmission is backlash-free and vibration-reducing thanks to the cross element.
• It acts as a compensation element for the drive shaft and determines both the characteristics of the clutch and the drive system.
• To modify these properties, cross elements with different Shore hardnesses are available.
• Always a perfect fit!
• We manufacture our linear shafts exactly to the lengths required by our customers.
• Backlash-free guide shaft
• Lengths up to 3000 mm available
• For synchronous operation of two axes and for covering large distances between shaft ends.
• Vibration reduction by one spider element per clutch side
• Easy radial assembly
• Torque range from 12.5 to 525 Nm
• Hub material: aluminum
• Spider element: polyurethane
• Tube: aluminum
• Hub bore tolerance: H7
• Optional keyway according to DIN6885
• Longer versions up to 6 m on request!
