DOBIKON 1012 Double-Cone Self-Centering Clamping Elements

The DOBIKON 1012 double-cone system consists of two inner cone rings and a solid outer sleeve. The symmetrical double-cone geometry distributes contact pressure evenly and prevents hub tilting under severe dynamic alternating loads.

  • Shaft diameters: 20 mm to over 1000 mm for heavy industrial shafts
  • Transmissible torque: up to 2,200,000 Nm for high-capacity drives
  • Design: double-cone symmetrical self-centering assembly

Heavy-duty double-cone locking assemblies DOBIKON 1013, 1015.0 and 1015.1 are engineered for extreme torque transmission in rolling mills, crushers and grinding mills. Extended contact lengths prevent peak stress concentrations.

  • Shaft seating diameters: 50 mm to 800 mm
  • Variants: 1015.0 (standard clamping force) and 1015.1 (boosted clamping force)
  • Symmetrical force path eliminates bending stress on locking screws
  • Cold installation without heating via torque-controlled tightening

BIKON 2006 and BIKON 2066 Compact Split Clamping Rings

BIKON 2006 and 2066 are compact locking units featuring slotted conical rings, delivering high torque ratings within slim radial profiles. They are ideal for narrow hubs with constrained outer dimensions.

  • Shaft sizes: 14 mm to 400 mm
  • Minimal radial thickness for compact machine envelopes
  • Slotted ring design ensuring secure grip across larger machining clearances
  • Resistant to reversing shocks in material handling conveyors

BIKON 4000 and BIKON 4500 Self-Centering Clamping Sets

BIKON 4000 and 4500 locking sets feature integrated self-centering geometry and high radial rigidity. The integral stop collar eliminates angular runout and radial misalignment during screw torque application.

  • Radial runout after installation: within 0.02–0.04 mm
  • Front-accessible locking screws on the flange face
  • Non-destructive release via integral jack screw threads

BIKON 7000A, 7000B and 7030 Low-Pressure Clamping Units

BIKON 7000A, 7000B and 7030 series are designed for thin-walled hubs and constrained radial spaces. They generate controlled radial hub pressure Pn, preventing deformation and cracking in sensitive hub materials.

  • Shaft sizes: 19 mm to 400 mm
  • Low hub pressure Pn protecting delicate thin-wall components
  • Configurations: 7000A (flangeless), 7000B (flanged), 7030 (reinforced)
  • Applications: printing press cylinders, servo drives, lightweight pulleys

BIKON 8000 and BIKON 9500 Ultra High-Capacity Clamping Sets

BIKON 8000 and 9500 represent the highest torque-density class among keyless locking units. Precision ground conical surfaces and high-grade alloy steels ensure absolute reliability in turbo-compressors and heavy industrial fans.

  • Shaft diameters: 20 mm to 500 mm
  • Maximum power transmission density per unit weight
  • Minimal runout up to 6,000 RPM continuous operating speeds
  • Resistant to cyclic thermal and mechanical fatigue

BIKON 3000, 3002 and 3003 Two-Part External Shrink Discs

BIKON 3000, 3002 and 3003 external shrink discs mount onto the outside diameter of hollow shafts. Tightening the clamping screws compresses the hollow shaft onto the solid drive shaft, sealing the interface against corrosion.

  • Hollow shaft sizes: 24 mm to 620 mm
  • Design: two-part closed-taper external locking assembly
  • Zero internal notch effect inside the hollow shaft
  • Ideal for shaft-mounted gearboxes, bucket elevators and bulk conveyors

BIKON 3006, 3012 and 3015 Three-Part Heavy-Duty Shrink Discs

Three-part shrink discs BIKON 3006, 3012 and 3015 feature two outer taper pressure thrust rings and a double-taper inner ring. Symmetrical contraction provides balanced clamping across wind turbines, ball mills and mining excavators.

  • Outer hub diameter range: 30 mm to 850 mm
  • Configuration: 3-part symmetrical clamping with axial bolt circle
  • Torque capacity: up to 1,800,000 Nm
  • High fatigue resistance under combined bending and pulsating loads

BIKON 30, BIKON FK and FK 6006 Rigid Flange Couplings

BIKON 30 (patented 1981) and compact BIKON FK / FK 6006 flange couplings join butt shafts rigidly without backlash. The FK series offers lightweight geometry and clamps directly onto plain shaft ends without keyways.
