Cardan Shaft

A Cardan shaft (often called a drive shaft or propeller shaft) is a mechanical component used to transmit rotational power and torque between two points that are not in a straight line.

Description
Cardan shafts are flexible and transmit drive forces, even with static offsets between input and output, changing angles, and/or dynamic loads. Modern drive shafts are therefore used in various machines and vehicles, from agricultural vehicles to special vehicles. Cardan shafts are used in the following areas, among others:
• in vehicle engineering
• in agriculture
• in industrial engineering and plant engineering
• in special and commercial vehicles (e.g., fire engines or construction machinery). Regardless of the application area, cardan shafts can reliably bridge larger distances between the input and output. This means that powerful drives can be realized flexibly and cost-effectively. In vehicle construction, a wide range of torque and speed combinations is particularly important, whereas in mechanical and plant engineering, constant working torques and speeds with correspondingly long running times dominate.

Cardan shafts are part of the cross cardan shaft assembly and consist of several components, which can vary depending on the design:
- Fork parts made from forged blanks, machined and provided with holes for corresponding roller bearings.
- Cross joints manufactured by cold extrusion or drop forging
- Needle or roller bearings (rolling bearings) are fitted into fork parts
- Profile shift with broached hubs and cold-formed shaft profiles; optionally with plastic coating to reduce axial displacement forces
- Special precision steel tube
