Voith Turbo universal joint shafts transmit torques from a driver to the driven machine safely and reliably.
The range includes standard universal joint shafts as well as custom-made shafts to suit your drives and operating conditions. Voith universal joint shafts are capable of transmitting torques of 0.25 kNm to more than 10,000 kNm.
Our universal joint shafts are available in the following designs:
- Shafts with length compensation (standard or tripode)
- Fixed length shafts
- Joint couplings
- Intermediate shafts with single or double bearing
Universal joint shafts are used in
- Rolling mills
- Paper machines
- Rail vehicles
- Marine propulsion
- Pump drives
- Test rigs
- Special drive units |
|
Distance couplings:
- variable in length
- high torsional stiffness
- low moment of inertia
- high speed |
|
Ball and socket joints and shafts of our production series 0.800 are supported by gliding bearings and therefore can only be used at low speeds.
The permissible maximum speeds depend on the deflection angle and the load, however, they should not exceed 500 min-1.. |
|
Continuous operation data and conditions, working angle 5°, average life 1000 hours.
The drive shaft is fitted with an "ECS" device for easy coupling with the PTO.
The operations of coupling and uncoupling the transmission shaft and the PTO on tractors or other farm machinery (previously fitted with a dedicated device) are easier and safer with the "ECS" device.
The "ECS" device is made up of a collar fitted on the stub of the yoke, free to rotate around the stub but connected to it through a float-type coupling. |

Depending on the configurations, the Original Elbe Universal Joint Shafts consist of fork parts, joint crosses, needle- or roller bearings, splined length extension and precision tubing.
Fork parts are made using closed die forgings while joint crosses are made from cold press or closed die forgings. Highly stressed areas of the universal drive shafts are heat treated to obtain an optimum combination of hardness and toughness. Subsequently, joint cross journals and bearing seats are ground to very fine tolerances.
Each fork part is bored to enable mounting of the needle- or roller bearing housings. Hub splines for length extension are broached and the mating external splines are rolled. If it becomes necessary to reduce the sliding force of the splines, they can be coated with a high quality plastic. |

The complete manufacturing process with all its advantages is identical with the description of the series 0.100.
The bearings of this series feature roller bearing design with all advantages previously described.
The main advantage of this wing-style version is the positive-fit connection resulting from the key of the bearing housing and the key-way of the flange. Therefore the torque is transmitted in a more defined way in comparison to the friction connection.
The four screws used to mount the flange to the universal joint allow fast assembling and disassembling. |

This Double Joint is used for the same application as series 0.400, namely in steering axles of all wheel drive vehicles. However, the design of series 0.500 differs slightly from that of series 0.400.
The joint pivots are not located in one plane thus enabling a more compact design. This feature shortens the distance between the centerpiece which results in a shorter installation length.
Series 0.500 offers more joint sizes than series 0.400 thus covering a wider torque range. |

Cardan joints and cardan shafts according to DIN 808 are supported by sliding bearings and their use is consequently restricted to low-speed drives.
The respective permissible maximum speeds depend on the deflection angle and the load, however, they must not exceed 1000 min-1. |

An overrunning clutch transmits rotary motion only in one direction. It is used to eliminate reverse torques generated by the inertia of implements with heavy rotating masses such as rotors or flywheels during deceleration or stopping.
The GE torsionally resilient joint is used on drivelines for different functions depending upon the specific application -The GE can reduce torque peaks generated by the inertia of machines with heavy flywheels or rotors during abrupt starts or deceleration. -The GE can smooth alternating or pulsating loads that may shorten the life of power transmission components. -The GE can modify the natural frequency of a system, to avoid resonance events that could cause failures. - The GE can smooth torsional vibrations generated by unequal working angles on drivelines with more than one joint.

Shaft with Casing & Fittings
S.S. White Motor couplings come in 2 types of assemblies - Oilite Bearings Assemblies and Ball Bearings Assemblies. Both Oilite and Ball Bearings Assemblies are available in ten (10) different diameter sizes: .130, .150, .187, .250, .312, .375, .500, .625, .750, and 1.000. Casing is usually necessary for shaft lengths that exceed 8 inches. Also, casing is recommended when the environment is dirty, dusty, or corrosive or when the shafts are run at high speeds in exposed areas where injury can occur. Refer to the chart below to find specifics on each assembly diameter. |
|
Shaft with Fittings
For shaft applications that do not require casing, use the chart below to choose your fitting(s). Fittings are available in seven mating sizes (A through G) for each size shaft up to .500 diameter. Panel mount fittings (H & I) are available for some sizes. Casing is usually necessary for shaft lengths that exceed 8 inches. Also, casing is recommended when the environment is dirty, dusty, or corrosive or when the shafts are run at high speeds in exposed areas where injury can occur. |

Choosing Ready-Flex® Standard Flexible Shafts
Many Flexible Shaft applications require custom designed Flexible Shafts-and some do not. For low-volume applications, the use of custom designed Flexible Shafts can be costly and time consuming due to the engineering effort required in the development process.
S.S. White has found there are certain designs and applications that come up over and over again and would be better served by standard, "off the shelf" solutions. For these applications, we have developed a line of readily available "standard" Flexible Shafts called Ready-Flex ®. They are offered in ten different diameter sizes to cover the majority of torque requirements and are available in a variety of End Coupling configurations. |

The special characteristic is, that some very rigid maintenance-free bearing as connection to the bogie and a high elastic bearing as connction for the cradle carrier serves.Both bearings must implement large angle of rotation and torsion movements.
The solution consists of the fact that in a formed steering bar a maintenance-free spherical bearing protected by means of seals, for a rigid connection and an elastomer bush with integrated likewise maintenace-free by means of seals cannons of spherical bush forthe flexible connection one integrated

Double E carbon fiber expanding shafts are lightweight alternatives to heavy steel or aluminum shafts. These shafts provide the following benefits:
Carbon fiber housing provides the strength of steel at a fraction of the weight.
Housing sleeved in metal to protect against abrasion.
Special corded polyprene bladder expands with air to grip core ID. Robust bladder material reduces bladder failure and minimizes maintenance.
Deep journal insertion and a close tolerance fit ensure easy access when necessary.
Comprehensive two year warranty even includes bladder. |
|
| DX type expanding shafts are made of aluminium with an extruded profile or may optionally be made of steel or ERGAL, a special aluminium alloy which allows a 30% approximately increase in the shaft's capacity without increasing its weight. |
