Safety Systems
Tool collisions with high feed rates cause high impact force peak values on motor-spindles in metal cutting machine tools. As a result, five-figure US-$ amounts for repair and servicing of heavy collision damaged motor-spindle systems and machine tools are common. In the case of a collision-caused overload, the newly developed motor-spindle safety system from JAKOB disconnects the power transmission immediately at the interface between the machine tool headstock and the motor-spindle through 3D- displacement. Therefore the shock-sensitive components of the motor-spindle are effectively protected from peak impact forces of the tool collision.
