In addition to our testing procedures, the actual shafts are also tested at our facilities in compliance with Classification Society’s requirements. During the design phase, several factors are analyzed, including:

• Dimension of the carbon fiber tubes for the transmittable torque
• Whirling speed
• Torsional stiffness
• Composite/steel bolted connection

Jaure^® carbon fiber shaft lines usually include flexible and rigid couplings. This will offer a complete package to fit specific project requirements.

• Weight reduction: depending on the shaft line configuration, steel shaft lines are approximately 50-70% heavier.
• There are longer distances between the bearings, which reduces their quantity and simplifies the shaft line layout.
• Temperature stability (almost null thermal expansion) avoids misalignment concerns on long shaft lines.
• As carbon fiber tubes are not affected by corrosion or wear, no maintenance is required and service life is longer.
