Initial situation:

Cone clamping elements are used in many Fill designs. The advantages of these connections are:

• Inexpensive to purchase
• Simple geometry for the elements to be connected (cylindrical bore / smooth shaft)
• Backlash-free connection (suitable for alternating loads)
• High torques can be transmitted

Unfortunately, there are always problems with these fasteners slipping. For this reason, this fastening system is to be systematically analyzed in order to identify the key influencing factors that lead to premature failure.
