Function – Application
ROBA®-ES stands for:
flexible (E), backlash-free (S) shaft coupling.
It consists of two coupling hubs and a flexible, star-shaped
intermediate ring (elastomeric element) Figs. 1 – 4.
ROBA®-ES couplings are specially designed for backlash-free
operation at comparatively high speeds.
ROBA®-ES couplings are mainly used in measurement and
regulation technology as well as in control and process
technology.
ROBA®-ES couplings are shaft-shaft connections for flexible
backlash-free torque transmission in high dynamic servo drives.

Installation and Operational Instructions for
ROBA®-ES Couplings Type 940. _ _ _ . _ Sizes 14 - 65 (B.9.6.GB)
Elastomeric Elements (2)
The elastomeric elements (2) are the central element of the
ROBA®-ES coupling. They define the area of application via the
permitted torque, rigidity, damping and misalignment values and
the performance of the shaft connection.
By using a new polyurethane material and a special injection
method, a high degree of dimensional stability and uniformity in
the toothing of the elastomeric element (2) is achieved. The
elastomeric elements are available in different shore hardnesses
(see Table 8).
The teeth on the elastomeric element (2) are chamfered laterally,
which eases blind installation.
Elastomeric Elements - Agent Resistance (2)
The elastomeric elements (2) are very resistant against
pure mineral oils (lubricating oils)
waterproof greases.
They have similar resistance against fuels such as
standard petrol
diesel
kerosene.
Damage can occur due to longer influence of
alcohols
aromatic fuels (super petrol).
The elastomeric element material used is resistant to hydrolysis.
In contrast to other polyurethane materials, water (also sea
water) does not cause any substantial changes in the
mechanical characteristics even after many years of contact.
However, hot water reduces the mechanical rigidity.
Please contact the manufacturer in case of contact with special
agents or radiation.
Elastomeric Elements (2) - Temperature
Resistance
The ambient temperatures present during operation have a
considerable effect on the torque, the rigidity or the damping
behaviour of the coupling. The permitted temperature ranges
(according to Table 8) are to be kept to.
General Installation Guidelines
The bores of the coupling hubs have an H7 tolerance in shrink
disk and keyway designs or an F7 tolerance in clamping hub
design in standard production. We recommend a k6 tolerance*
for the shafts. The surface of the shafts should be finely turned
or ground (Ra = 0,8 µm).
In case of customer-side bores, please observe the shaft run-out
tolerance 0,05 to "A" (see Fig. 6).
The bores or shafts must not be oiled or greased when
installing the coupling with clamping hubs (1.1) or shrink disk
hubs (1.2).
(* Please contact the manufacturer for other shaft tolerances.)

Due to their optimised construction, the ROBA®-ES coupling
provides customers with the possibility of attaching the coupling
axially after the hubs have been installed on the input or output
shafts.
Subsequent screwing procedures and complex housing
constructions become unnecessary..
(see Installation Examples Figs. 6, 7 and 11).
Please Observe!
ROBA®-ES couplings with steel hubs and
steel shrink disks are coated with a zinc
phosphation, which provides corrosion
protection. All other components are
untreated.
For both steel and aluminium hubs, the
bores or shafts have to be degreased
before installing the coupling Types:

with shrink disk hubs 940._11._.
Greasy or oily bores or shafts do not
transmit the indicated transmittable
torque TR specified on order.
Installation of the Coupling Halves (Hubs)
Installation of the Coupling Clamping Hubs
Type 940._00._ (Fig. 8)
Push the coupling hubs (1.1) using a suitable device onto
both shaft ends, and bring them into the correct position.
Tighten the clamping screw (3) using a torque wrench
evenly to the required torque acc. Table 2.
Fig. 8
Installation of the Coupling Hubs with Keyway
Type 940._22._ (Fig. 10)
In order to dimension the shaft-hub connection or to inspect the
permitted contact pressure per unit area of the keyway, the
calculation procedure acc. DIN 6892 usual in mechanical
engineering is to be applied.
For calculation, please take the yield point as Rp 0,2 for
aluminium 200 N/mm2 and for steel 350 N/mm2.
Push the coupling hubs (1.3) using a suitable device onto
both shaft ends and bring them into the correct position.
Secure the hubs (1.3) axially (see also Installation Example
Fig. 6).
Axial securement takes place via a set screw (adjusting
screw / Fig. 10).
The key must lie over the entire length of the hub.
Installation of the Coupling Shrink Disk Hubs
Type 940._11._ (Fig. 9)
The contact surfaces of the cone shrink disk (1.2b) or cone
shrink disk hub (1.2a) are greased manufacturer-side.
Push the coupling hubs (1.2) using a suitable device onto
both shaft ends and bring them into the correct position.
Tighten the clamping screws (4) until they are lying lightly up
against their receptor part.
Tighten the clamping screws stepwise and crosswise (in 3
to max. 6 tightening turns) evenly using a torque wrench to
the required tightening torque according to Tables 3 or 4
(dependent on Type).
Fig. 9
De-installation
Loosen all clamping screws (4) by several tightening turns.
Screw out the clamping screws next to the tapped extracting
holes, and screw them into the tapped extracting holes up to
their limits.
Tighten the clamping screws (4) stepwise evenly. In this
way, the clamping ring (1.2b) is forced away from the shrink
disk hub (1.2a) (Fig. 9).

Due to the pre-tension on the flexible elastomeric element (2), an
axial installation force must be produced (Fig. 5) when the
coupling hubs are joined (1.1-1.3).
The force required can be reduced by lightly greasing the
elastomeric element.

Shaft Misalignments
ROBA®-ES couplings are capable of compensating for radial,
axial and angular shaft misalignments (Fig. 13), without losing
their resistance to backlash.
However, the permitted shaft misalignments shown in Table 6
may not simultaneously reach their maximum value. If more than
one kind of misalignment takes place simultaneously, they
influence each other. Therefore, each permitted alignment value
(see Fig. 12) is dependent on another. The sum total of the
actual misalignments in percent of the maximum value must not
exceed 100 %.
The permitted shaft misalignments shown in Table 6 refer to
coupling operation at nominal torque, an ambient temperature of
+30 °C and an operating speed of 1500 rpm. In other or more
extreme coupling conditions, please contact the manufacturers.

Coupling Alignment
An exact coupling alignment greatly increases the lifetime of the
clutch and reduces the load on the shaft bearings.
In particularly high speed drives, we recommend the use of an
alignment device (e.g. laser).
Normally however, it is sufficient to align the coupling using a
straight edge at two vertical levels next to each other.
The key hubs (1.3) and clamping hubs (1.1) rotate at maximum
speed with a circumferential speed of 30 m/s.
They are not balanced in the standard process.
Shrink disk hub(1.2):
The shrink disk hubs (steel and aluminium) (1.2) maintain a
balance quality of G = 6,3 without being balanced up to speed n
(equals c. 30 m/s). Over this speed, balancing is recommended.
The hubs are balanced individually. The diagram (Fig. 14) gives
reference values for balancing the coupling, which we
recommended you use.
The running smoothness of a machine or system is not
dependent on the balance quality of the coupling, but rather on
many parameters such as rigidity or distance to the adjoining
bearing. For this reason there are no fixed regulations as to the
conditions for which a coupling should be balanced.

Suitable Coupling Dimensioning
For malfunction-free function of the coupling, please keep to the
given coupling characteristic values (Technical Data) in the most
recent applicable catalogue. Suitable coupling dimensioning
according to the applicable ROBA®-ES catalogue is necessary for
malfunction-free and wear-free operation.
Large shaft misalignments, in particular with high speeds and an
alternating overall load configuration with high frequency, strain
and heat up the elastomer material.
Unpermittedly high load configuration, unpermittedly high speeds
and unpermitted shaft misalignments can destroy the coupling.
For suitable coupling dimensioning (see calculation in the most
recent applicable ROBA®-ES catalogue), please observe the
following points:
a.) Coupling nominal torque
b.) Coupling peak transient torque
c.) Max. speed
d.) Max. shaft misalignments
e.) Ambient conditions (see most recent applicable
ROBA®-ES catalogue)
f.) Service factors (see most recent applicable
ROBA®-ES catalogue)
The number and type of start-up impacts must be taken into
account according to the catalogue during coupling dimensioning.
Furthermore, elastomer heating may occur due to speed
resonance. This must also be taken into account according to the
catalogue during coupling dimensioning. Changed operating
parameters in the system require a renewed inspection of the
coupling dimensioning. The maximum given ambient
temperatures are to be kept to. Exceeding the permitted ambient
temperatures means a danger of elastomer destruction.
Danger!
Any operation outside the given
characteristic data is not allowed. Danger of
coupling destruction.

Installation and Operational Instructions for
Dismantle the coupling and remove the remains of the elastomeric
Please keep to the following maintenance and inspection
intervals:
1.) Visual check, inspection of the installation
parameters (misalignment and tightening torques),
running behaviour of the coupling before initial
operation.
2.) Visual check, torsional backlash and elastomer wear,
inspections of misalignment and tightening torques,
running behaviour of the coupling after 1000h or
after max. 3 months.
3.) If no irregularities or wear are found during the
second maintenance and inspection interval, all
further inspection intervals can be carried out under
unchanged operating parameters after 4000
operating hours or after max. 12 months.
Elastomer wear limit :
No abraded particles are allowed on the Elastomeric element (2),
as the ROBA®-ES is a backlash-free coupling. The gap between
two jaws must be filled with the elastomer, with no room for
backlash.
You should not be able to insert a feeler gauge with a thickness of
0,1 mm (Fig. 15).
