DANGER!
Risk of injuries due to a slipping of the shaft. The torque cannot be reli-
ably transmitted, if the shaft is not assembled according to the indicat-
ed requirements.
5.2.1
Assembly of gearboxes with solid output shaft
This chapter describes the assembly of the output shaft for gearboxes
with a solid shaft (Figure 1). The solid output shaft is designed plain and
without a keyway or spline profile. Torque transmission can, for exam-
ple, take place backlash-free by means of clamping couplings, clamping
bushings or heat shrinking of components onto the shaft. For the chosen
transmission principle, the existing specification of the manufacturer of
the coupling respectively the clamping sleeve must be observed.
When heat-shrinking components onto the gear shaft, a clean and
grease or oil-free gear shaft must be ensured.
The gear shaft must not be heated too much by the hot component be-
cause the adjacent radial shaft seals on the gear shaft could be damaged.
NOTICE
Damage to the radial shaft seals due to heat shrinking of components
that are too hot onto the gear shafts.
5.2.2
Assembly of gearboxes with hollow output shaft
This chapter describes the assembly of the output shaft for gearboxes
with a hollow shaft (figure 2). The hollow output shaft is designed plain
