Cardan Shaft - Universal

Gewes Cardan Shafts, or perhaps referred to as u-joints, facilitate reliable force transfer between

spatially remote drive and output trains. Cardan shafts from GEWES provide appropriate

mechanical drive solutions in nearly all industrial sectors thanks to their versatile style and their

high potency.

Our weight-optimised, energy-efficient, superior coupling shafts square measure developed by

victimisation advanced ways and FEM calculations to produce best tube wall strengths and

diameters for prime torsion and bending resistance.

Cardan shaft was made-up in sixteenth Century by Girolamo Cardano. it's a mechanical part for

sending force and rotation, typically wont to connect different elements of a drive train that can't

be connected directly owing to distance or the necessity to permit for relative movement between

them. It may also accomodate a variable shaft angle.

We use tempered steel and steel for our u-joints. label exactness steel tubes square measure used

for significantly rigorous solutions. All materials used fulfil the wants for marine classification and

rail vehicle applications. Reliable and continuous operation of our u-joints with a high force

capability is so secure. Our Cardan shafts square measure additional characterized by low-

maintenance elements and low maintenance prices over the complete product life cycle.

Our dynamic reconciliation systems enable reconciliation of coupling shafts with high accuracy to

go with the specifications for applications that involve fast-turning universal joints. Running with

low vibrations reduces the load on the drive and therefore the universal joints. This ends up in a

extended service life and creates less operative noise.

Our specialised employees can fain assist you notice the proper coupling for your application or

can develop an acceptable answer per your specific needs.
