Jaw coupling with pre-stressed spider. Total elimination of torsional backlash for precision applications: servo systems, encoders, measurement, servomotors.
The SKT eliminates torsional backlash — the reference coupling for precision applications.
The pre-loaded spider clamps between the jaws without any residual backlash. Optimal angular precision for servo loops and measurement systems.
No clatter on direction reversals, no oscillation around the setpoint. Control gains stability, machining gains quality.
The hard polyurethane spider retains its pre-load over time. No gradual loosening like a standard rubber — precision is maintained cycle after cycle.

The SKT zero-backlash elastic coupling is designed for precision applications where the slightest torsional backlash degrades process quality: servomotors, angular encoders, three-dimensional measuring machines, very-high-precision machine tools.
The elastomer spider is pre-loaded between the jaws: it completely eliminates operating backlash. No clatter on direction reversals, no parasitic oscillation around the setpoint, no angular lag.
The hard polyurethane spider (typically Shore 95+) retains its pre-load over time, unlike standard rubber which eventually relaxes. The SKT is the coupling of choice for high-precision servo loops.
