1 Product Description
The patented TorqLOC hollow shaft mounting system is an alternative to conventional
connection techniques such as keys or shrink discs.
The user not only benefits from straightforward installation and the possibility of safe
disassembly even after many hours of operation, but also from a reduction in machining
costs because the customer’s shaft can be produced using drawn, unprocessed
material.

TorqLOC is a non-positive clamping joint that functions similarly to the classic shrink disc
connection. In addition to the hollow shaft, which is rigidly installed in the gear unit, the
system consists of a special shrink disc, a clamping ring and two conical bushings that
are inserted into both sides of the hollow shaft.
For installation, the clamping ring [2] is first pushed onto the customer’s shaft, followed
by the bronze bushing [3]. The gear unit is then mounted onto the customer’s shaft. The
axial position of the gear unit is determined by the torque arm. Mounting is possible
without calibration or the need to apply force because no interference fits have to be
overcome between the hollow shaft [4] and the input shaft. The bronze bushing is
inserted into the hollow shaft and secured with the clamping ring [2]. Next, the shrink
disc [5] and the conical steel counter-bushing [6] are inserted. The gearmotor is
mounted on the input shaft once the shrink disc has been tightened. A fixed metal cover
[7] provides protection against touching the rotating shrink disc and makes a further
contribution towards accident prevention.
If dismantling is required, the procedure is performed in reverse order of installation. The
special shrink disc [5] has three threaded holes which can be used for forcing it off. All
the screws must be removed from the shrink disc and then three bolts screwed into the
threads. The two discs of the shrink disc are forced apart. The shrink disc is forced out
of the hollow shaft of the gear unit by means of the collar on the conical steel bushing
[6]. The gearmotor is then already half dismantled from the customer’s shaft. "Fretting
corrosion" between the hollow shaft and the customer’s shaft can no longer occur with
TorqLOC because there are no interference fits to be overcome during disassembly
either. In other connection systems such as keys or the conventional shrink disc, even
the smallest metal chip or incipient corrosion would scuff the material during
disassembly, therefore rendering disassembly increasingly difficult or even impossible.

3 Quick and easy assembly and disassembly

3 Your benefits
3.1 Quick and easy assembly and disassembly
Classic shaft mounted gear units with hollow shafts and keys or with hollow shafts and
shrink discs are becoming increasingly popular among users.
Although this type of gear unit offers many advantages, the narrow fit tolerances
between the hollow shaft and the customer’s shaft when installing gearmotors can be
very complicated to achieve and require exact calibration.
Things also become difficult when the drive has to be removed from the input shaft due
to a machine breakdown or for routine maintenance work. Despite every precaution,
fretting corrosion may have occurred between the hollow shaft and the customer’s shaft
after a lengthy period of operation, for instance as a result of micro movements. This can
make it very difficult and often exceedingly time-consuming to remove the gear unit from
the customer’s shaft.
The TorqLOC hollow shaft mounting system now represents an alternative to the
conventional hollow shaft and shrink disc, as well as to the shaft-mounted type with a
key. The patented clamping joint makes it significantly easier to install and remove the
gear unit.
• No need to overcome tight-tolerance fits
• No complicated calibration
• Fretting corrosion is prevented to a considerable extent

Installation is very straightforward and the unit can be dismantled easily even after a
long period of time and many operating hours. These advantages are particularly
apparent during servicing or maintenance.
• Cost savings due to reduced installation times
• Reduction in maintenance work and downtime
• Increased machine serviceability

3.2 Cost reduction

because the In classic shaft-mounted gear units with a hollow shaft and key or a hollow shaft and
customer’s shaft shrink disc, manufacturing the customer’s input shaft is relatively costly for the user
is made from because of the necessary keyway or fitting tolerances (normally quality h6). The conical
drawn material bushings on both ends of the TorqLOC hollow shaft make it possible to adjust the
tolerance on the customer’s shaft by as much as 0.19 mm. This means drawn bar stock
up to quality h11 can be used to produce the customer’s shaft.
• Tolerance adjustment depending on diameter, up to 0.19 mm
• No keyways or interference fits required
• Drawn material can be used

By using a TorqLOC gearmotor and drawn bar stock for the input shaft, it is possible to
dispense with machining the input shaft entirely, thus saving time and machining costs.
• Cost savings by using drawn bar stock of quality h11
• Low machining costs for the input shaft
• Reduction in manufacturing costs for the machine

3.3 Versatile
due to different In classic shaft mounted gear units with hollow shafts and keys or with hollow shafts and
shaft diameters shrink discs, the output shaft diameter cannot be changed once the drive has been
ordered. The drive can only be used for the shaft diameter which has been specified in
advance.
With the patented TorqLOC system, it is possible to adapt to other diameters with one
and the same hollow shaft, as well as to use the rated diameters provided for the gear
unit size. This allows for greater flexibility in operation and means that drive units can be
standardized. All that is required is to change the conical bushings in the TorqLOC
system. Starting from the rated diameter, shaft diameters down to rated minus 5 mm can
be achieved by using different bushings. This makes it possible to adapt to different
shaft diameters in a straightforward and inexpensive way.
• Adapting to different diameters with one gear unit type
• Conversion between metric and inch sizes is possible
• The conical bushings can easily be exchanged

By using different bushings, it is now possible to use one stocked gear unit type to cover
several different shaft dimensions. This saves storage space and minimizes warehouse
costs. When an old gearmotor is replaced in an existing machine, the new gearmotor
can be adapted to the shaft diameter in the existing machine without the time and
expense of converting the customer’s shaft.
• Standardization of gear unit types
• Flexible use of drives in different machines
• Reduction in storage costs

4 Technical Data
4.1 All type sizes at a glance
The innovative TorqLOC is available for helical-worm, helical-bevel and parallel shaft
helical gearmotors of sizes 37 to 97 and can therefore be used in an output torque range
of 92 to 4300 Nm. There are no fundamental restrictions as far as the selection of gear
ratios or options for the gearmotor is concerned. In the case of parallel shaft helical gear
units, however, the maximum motor size is limited in some cases due to the fixed shrink
disc cover.
Please refer to the dimension sheet notes in this regard.

Due to the fixed flange or foot mounting, stress could build up in the driveline because
of the possible tolerance adjustment of the TorqLOC shaft. Furthermore, the clamping
ring could not be mounted on flange-mounted types.

4.2 Design versions

TorqLOC: The standard TorqLOC type has the shrink disc installed opposite the output end. This
means the customer has to specify which is the output end when ordering. In helical-
worm or right-angle gear units with TorqLOC, it is therefore necessary to stipulate
whether the A or B end is the output end. In the figure, the A end is the output end. The
shrink disc is located opposite to the output end.

52309AXX
Figure 4: Design versions

TorqLOC Plus: Apart from the standard version, a hollow shaft with a shrink disc seat on both ends is
available on request. This means the customer has a free choice of output end. When
ordering the TorqLOC Plus version, the output end must be specified as AB. TorqLOC
Plus is not a standard version and may require an extended delivery time.
TorqLOC is slightly longer than the standard version. As a result, a corresponding
amount of extra space must be provided in the customer’s design.

Standard steel: TorqLOC and TorqLOC Plus are available as standard steel types.

Stainless high- Both versions, TorqLOC and TorqLOC Plus, are also available as a stainless high-grade
grade steel: steel type. The high-grade steel type is initially only available on request and may have
an extended delivery time. Individual sizes of the high-grade steel type may have a
reduced torque capacity. Contact the corresponding technical departments when
selecting the gear units.

The conical bushing opposite the shrink disc connection is made of bronze in both types.
The material pairing of bronze and steel between the busing and the hollow shaft or
customer’s shaft largely eliminates fretting corrosion. This means the material selection
improves the disassembly characteristics. The conical bushing on the shrink disc end
must be made of steel because bronze would not be able to cope with the clamping
forces required for transmitting the torque.

4.4 NOCO-FLUID®
As standard, SEW-EURODRIVE supplies NOCO-FLUID® corrosion protection and
lubricant with every hollow shaft gear unit. Use NOCO-FLUID® when installing hollow
shaft gear units This will reduce any possible fretting corrosion and facilitate possible
removal later on.
Furthermore, NOCO-FLUID® is also suitable for protecting machined metal surfaces
which do not have corrosion protection. These include parts of shaft ends or flanges, for
example. You can also order larger containers of NOCO-FLUID® from SEW-
EURODRIVE.
Starting from the summer 2003 sales period, NOCO-FLUID® will be certified as a food
industry oil in accordance with USDA-H1. You can tell that NOCO-FLUID® is a food
industry oil due to the USDA-H1 identification on its packaging.

5 Installation notes
5.1 Delivery condition
The gearmotors are delivered with the TorqLOC hollow shaft already installed in the
gear unit. The clamping ring, shrink disc and the two conical bushings are supplied with
the drive as separate assembly parts. The cover is installed and is painted together with
the drive.

52546AXX
Figure 9: TorqLOC delivery condition

5.2 Use in existing systems

The following points must be checked and/or observed if a new TorqLOC drive is used
as a replacement for an existing drive with a key or a conventional shrink disc:
• Is the existing input shaft end long enough for the TorqLOC shaft? A slightly longer
axial distance is required than in conventional shaft mounted gear units.
• Can the previous torque arm continue to be used? Design changes may be required.

Basically, it is possible to convert an existing drive to a TorqLOC clamping joint.

However, you should bear in mind that TorqLOC hollow shafts are not identical to the
hollow shafts used with the standard shrink disc. That means the gear unit has to be
completely stripped down as part of the conversion and reassembled with the new
TorqLOC shaft and all the TorqLOC assembly parts.

6 Applications
Shaft mounted gear units with TorqLOC clamping joints are particularly well suited for
use as a drive unit for conveyor belts and as travel drives. In this case, the compact
design of the right-angle gear units or parallel shaft helical gear units means they can
be ideally integrated into the machine design.
Applications:
• Roller conveyers
• Belt conveyors
• Chain conveyors
• Trolleys
• Travelling gear
• ...

Configuring a shaft mounted gearmotor with TorqLOC is particularly beneficial in

materials handling systems that need to have a high level of serviceability. As a result,
using TorqLOC drives is very advantageous in industries in which machine downtime is
extremely expensive.
Industrial sectors:

• Beverage industry
• Automotive industry
• Food industry
• ...

7 Clamping Joint for Bearings and Other Shaft/Hub Connections

Other shaft/hub connections with an increased tolerance adjustment are often also
necessary to benefit from the advantage of using drawn shaft material for the customer’s
shaft.
SKF offers ConCentra bearing units that allow for using conventional shafts up to quality
h9. Ground shafts are not required with these connections, as also with TorqLOC.

52522AXX
Figure 10: Bearing units

52523AXX
Figure 11: Bearing units
As well as the bearing units, ConCentra is also available as a shaft/hub connection for
all other transmission elements. In this case, ConCentra is used as a connection
element between the customer’s shaft and the transmission element.
By using the ConCentra solution from SKF in conjunction with TorqLOC, customers can
design an entire driveline using low-cost unmachined shafts.
