The clamping elements should be able to transmit great forces, to open and to close with lightning speed and be program-controlled as well as to have a space-saving overall size.

The need for reliable, dynamic, stress-resistant shaft-hub connections in modern machinery is increasing. Accuracy, simplicity of design, reliability and low cost are some of the most desirable features. The connections must allow for easy assembly, orientation, positioning and disassembly of precision machine components without loss of accuracy and reliability. Balancing for high-speed applications should not be required. Such high performance connections can be achieved with Falcon Engineers Clamping Sleeves.

Flexibility is maintained even after frequent clamping and unclamping without affecting accuracy and reliability. Even stress distribution over the entire circumference of the sleeve and mating parts is achieved, preventing fatigue failure through complete elimination of stress concentration (typically found in keyways or splines).

Our Clamping Sleeves have a simple, one-piece construction compared to other clamping components and usually do not require balancing. Installation in any assembly position is made easy.
