Maximum permissible speed 1,000 rpm

Precision joint with plain bearing G/GD

Our precision joints consist of a joint centre piece and two hubs that are interlinked by straps.
Bearing of the joint heads is made by plain bearings with precision joints type G and GD. The plain bearings type G and GD limit the maximum permissible speed to 1,000 rpm. The maximum diffraction angle of our cardan shafts per joint is 45°.

This bearing allows cardan shafts compared to other coupling types to compensate for significantly larger angular shaft displacements. Double joints that have two bearings are able to offset radial displacement in addition.

Features
  • Cardan shaft / precision joint acc. to DIN 808
  • Type G: Precision single joint with plain bearing (universal joint)
  • Type GD: Precision double joint with plain bearing
  • Max. speed = 1,000 rpm
  • Max. diffraction angle = 45° per joint

Precision joints in various versions acc. to DIN 808

Precision joints consist of a joint centre piece and two hubs that are interlinked by straps.
Bearing of the joint heads is made by plain or needle bearing selected based on the kind of application.

This bearing allows the precision joints (single joints) to compensate for significantly larger angular displacements compared to other coupling types. Double joints that have two bearings are able to offset radial displacement in addition.

Precision joints / cardan shafts in an extendable version are able to offset axial displacement in addition to angular and radial displacement.

Precision single joints (cardan shaft):

  • Precision joint G: standard type as single cardan shaft / joint with plain bearings for speeds up to 1,000 rpm.
  • Precision joint H: precision single cardan shaft / joint with plain bearings for speeds up to 4,000 rpm.

Precision double joints (cardan shaft):

  • Precision joint GD: standard type as double cardan shaft / joint with plain bearings for speeds up to 1,000 rpm.
  • Precision joint HD: type as single joint / cardan shaft with needle bearings as a precision joint for speeds from 500 to 4,000 rpm and big fleet angles.

Extendable precision joint (cardan shaft):

  • Precision joint GA (HA): extendable precisioin joint / cardan shaft with plain bearing (GA) or needle bearing (HA).
  • Precision joint X (XD): extendable precision joint / cardan shaft with plain bearing (X) or needle bearing (XD) made of stainless steel.

Precision joint with quick lock / quick-change coupling:

  • Precision joint GR(HR): precision joint with quick lock with plain bearing (GR) or needle bearing (HR) for speed ranges of 1,000 rpm resp.  4,000 rpm.

Precision joints / cardan shafts consist of a joint centre piece and two hubs that are interlinked by straps.
