Manufacturing of Shafts

Manufacturing of Shafts Points : manufacturing of shafts Shafts are commonly manufactured with hot rolling and finished to size through cold drawing or turning and grinding. Cold rolled shafts are stronger than hot rolled shafts but by higher lasting stresses. Lasting stresses can reason distortion of shaft as it is machined, particularly as slots or keyways are cut. Shafts of larger thickness are generally forged and turned to size in a lathe.
