Calculate, select, and rethink locking assembly connections
Select clamping sets safely, evaluate loads, and design shafts, and hubs in a practical manner, taking into account frictional engagement, notch effects, and operational influences.
That's what this seminar is about
From the fundamentals of friction-lock shaft-hub connections through selection and design to calculation, finite element analysis, assembly, and damage assessment.
Understanding friction and how it works
Understand force-fit, friction, and how modern clamping systems work as the basis for secure shaft-hub connections.
Choosing clamping systems safely
Compare different clamping systems and select one based on loads, materials, and safety factors.
Calculate shaft, hub & clamping set
Shafts and calculate hubs, classify notch effects, and evaluate finite element analyses under real-world loads.
Assessing damage patterns correctly
Classify industrial applications and typical failure modes such as friction corrosion, overload, and shaft breakage in a practical context.
