Axial Guard
Straight-line operations like pushers and cranks present unique challenges for determining and deflecting overload. Distinguished in the marketplace, U.S. Tsubaki’s Axial Guard offers a new style of protection using ball and grooves that provide a consistent, repeatable, user-defined trip point.
Advantages over other devices:
Highly-accurate repeatable trip point No parts to replace
Easy installation using tapped end caps Load adjustment set with a single screw Non-backlash design allows a “rigid” installation
Axial Guard offers overload protection where motion is back and forth rather than rotating. This new-style mechanical protection device is easy to install and to adjust.
INDUSTRY
APPLICATION
Conveyor torque arms, damper doors Inserters, pick and place equipment
Bulk handling
Assembly equipment
Metal-forming equipment
Extruders, formers
Packaging equipment
Carton sealing, labeling
Axial Guard works in either pushing or pulling applications – and the trip point in either direction is identical. When overloads occur, the Axial Guard “trips” and eliminates the overload that can result in damage and downtime. To reset, a small pull or push in the opposite direction is all it takes to return Tsubaki’s Axial Guard to operation. Downtime has been limited and production is up and going quickly.
