German manufacturer KACO has made a significant breakthrough in the field of high-speed dynamic radial shaft sealing systems. Electric drives require sealing systems that can function regardless of the direction of rotation, and previous systems had a preferred direction of rotation for forward travel (V-max), with correspondingly good reverse travel speed profiles.
KACO has taken on the challenge of developing a sealing system that can meet the load spectrum of forward travel while also providing reverse travel with similar speed and duration. Through cross-departmental cooperation between materials development, product development and testing, the company has created a sealing system that meets customer specifications in amine-containing gear oils regardless of direction of rotation.
The system has been tested in applications up to 45 m/s with a shaft diameter of 60 mm, covering over 90% of all known customer profiles. KACO is confident that its new sealing system will provide customers with reliable performance and improved efficiency.
