Sizing SWC150BH Industrial Cardan Shafts for Compact Machinery Drivetrains

Introduction In modern automated production lines—such as automated packaging conveyors, woodworking machinery, textile equipment, and light-duty machine tools—engineers frequently encounter tight spatial constraints that require high torque transfer without excess rotational inertia.

 

The SWC150BH Round Flange Cardan Shaft Assembly offers an ideal balance of compactdimensions, low weight, and robust torque capacity rated at 13 kN m.


1. Compact Design & Transmission Efficiency With a 150 mm rotation outer diameter and an 89 mm drive tube, the SWC150BH fits intotight machinery housings where larger industrial cardan couplings cannot be installed. The55 X 128 mm central journal cross assembly delivers efficient mechanical power transmissionwith minimal power loss or torsional backlash.

2. Engineering Dimension Verification Checklist five critical flange parameters prior to ordering:
To ensure drop-in compatibility when replacing worn drive shafts, technical buyers should verify
Rotation Diameter (D): 150 mm clearance envelope.
Flange Pilot Diameter (D2): 90 mm with H7 precision fit (3 mm spigot depth).
Bolt Pitch Circle (D1): 130 mm accommodating 8 mounting holes (13 mm).
Flange Rim Thickness (K): 10 mm compact rim profile.
Drive Tube Outer Diameter (D3): 89 mm high-strength seamless tube.

3. Versatile Mounting & Custom Factory Sourcing The SWC150BH series can be configured in standard telescopic (BF, CH), short welded telescopic (DH), or fixed non-telescopic (WH, WF, WD) styles. Apexcoupling manufactures all SWC cardan shafts with forged alloy steel components, precision dynamic balancing, and protective anti-corrosion spray coatings.
