About JAKOB Antriebstechnik
JAKOB Antriebstechnik GmbH is a manufacturer of drive, clamping and vacuum technology based in Germany. The product range includes metal bellows, elastomer, miniature, distance, safety, stainless steel and ATEX couplings, mechanical clamping elements such as force clamping nuts and force clamping screws, hydromechanical spring clamping systems as well as the MS³ motor spindle protection system for machine tools. The portfolio is complemented by a catalogue program of standardized vacuum components, including ISO-KF small flanges (DN 10–60), ISO-K flanges (DN 63–630) and ISO-CF flanges for ultrahigh vacuum. Special designs are available from a quantity of 1; customer-specific vacuum parts are manufactured to customer specifications. Production is mainly from stainless steel and aluminium, as well as steel and plastic/elastomer for coupling elements. The main customers are mechanical and machine tool engineering as well as vacuum technology. The company has been active for over 50 years and sees itself as a system supplier that has evolved from a coupling manufacturer into an innovation partner.
