Flange Cardan Shaft

The flange cardan shaft is a special cross shaft coupling connected by a flange plate, and its core consists of cross bearings, flange forks, and expansion sleeves. Typical structures such as SWC-BF (standard expansion flange type) and SWC-WF (non expansion flange type) utilize the hinge characteristics of the cross axis, allowing the two axes to transmit torque within the angle range of β ≤ 5 °~45 °, while achieving high rigidity connection through flange bolts. Its unique design solves the problem of axis offset, ensuring stable transmission in heavy load scenarios such as metallurgy and ships.

Industry Applications

1. Metallurgical industry: SWP-ZG type is used for the main drive of rolling mills, which can withstand high temperatures and instantaneous impact loads;
   

2. Shipbuilding industry: SWC-WF non retractable adaptive propulsion shaft system reduces the occupation of ship cabin space;
   

3. Construction machinery: SWC-BH telescopic flange type supports non centering transmission of excavator rotary platform.

Through reasonable selection and maintenance, the flange universal joint coupling can significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of the transmission system, and adapt to the needs of complex industrial scenarios.
