Jakob Antriebstechnik GmbH
About us
Die Firma JAKOB-Antriebstechnik ist ein international führender Hersteller von Sicherheitskupplungen, Metallbalgkupplungen und mechanischen Spannelementen.
Seit über 50 Jahren entwickeln und produzieren wir torsionssteife Kupplungen und Sicherheitskupplungen für die Antriebstechnik. Dabei hat sich die Firma JAKOB den Ruf erarbeitet, ein kompetenter und zuverlässiger Partner in Fragen „Rund um den Antrieb“ zu sein.
Auf dem Gebiet der mechanischen Werkzeug- und Werkstückspanntechnik ist JAKOB mit ihrer innovativen und einzigartigen Spanntechnik führend.
Trotz ausgereifter und hochwertiger Produkte ist es das erklärte Ziel von JAKOB seine Arbeit permanent zu verbessern. Dies ist besonders im engen Dialog mit den Kunden möglich. Das JAKOB-Team sucht diesen Dialog und will als Fachspezialist für Bedürfnisse in der Antriebstechnik, Spanntechnik und der Maschinensteuerung für allgemeine und individuelle Lösungen, beratend zur Seite stehen.
Products & services

metal bellows coupling KG
welded connection available in 3 different length (2, 4, 6 corrugated metal bellows)

elastomer couplings
elastomer couplings – jaw couplings Characteristics of Elastomer couplings: • torque range up to 1.000 Nm • excellent dampening capabilities • cost effective • blind assembly possible • temperatures of up to 120°C

miniature couplings
Miniature couplings Miniature couplings are available in three different designs. You can choose between metal bellows-, elastomer-, and Oldham-type-couplings. The area of application includes high speed indicators, step motors, potentiometers, linear units, servo drives and shaft encoders. Characteristics of Miniature couplings: • excellent dampening capabilities (with elastomer spider) • high temperatures (with metal bellows) • blind assembly (with elastomer spider) • low cost version

safety couplings for indirect drives
Torque limiters for indirect drives Characteristics: parallel drive over gear wheel or toothed belt Safety couplings for indirect drives are used as torque limiters and as overload protection. The modular safety coupling system offers different solutions for specific requirements. Pulleys, gears and flanges can be mounted on the coupling to customize it for the application.

metal bellows couplings
metal bellows couplings standard series Characteristics of Metal bellows couplings: • torque range up to 50.000 Nm • high torsional stiffness • temperatures of up to 350°C • patented connection method • high speed • optional: stainless steel

distance coupling / drive shafts
Distance couplings – Line shafts length up to 6m This category is comprised of couplings which can span axial distances of up to 6 m length. The common main features of all available types are an intermediate pipe and a metal bellow part which is variable in length and can fit required applications of the customer exactly. Characteristics of Distance couplings: • variable length of up to 6m • high torsional stiffness • low moment of inertia • high speed • temperatures of up to 300°C • low cost version

safety couplings for direct drives
Torque limiters for direct drives Characteristics: coaxial main drive pinion » shaft— shaft Safety couplings for direct drives can be attached to metal bellows, elastomer spiders or membrane hubs to create a safety coupling capable of compensating shaft misalignment.
