SHAFT

Shaft - Overview
SHAFT design area
1 Selection of the MACHINE subset: SHAFT panel (Click on the icon SHAFT)
2 Visualization of the motor axial view to visualize the shaft topology and dimensions.
3

Choice of the shaft type. Two types are available:

  • None: No dimension to declare. Shaft is replaced by fluid material.
  • Solid: End-shaft must be defined

If shaft type is solid, Topology and dimensions of end-shaft must be defined.

Note: Connection side (C.S.) is identified by yellow lightning.
Note: Range of definition for dimensions: [0, 20000] mm.
4 Topology of the shaft must be defined:

Solid, Solid with hollow, Solid with ring, Solid with hollow and ring
5 Shaft input data to be defined
6

If shaft type is solid, end-shaft must be defined.

First indicate if the shaft is rotating or not

Note: Connection side (C.S.) is identified by yellow lightning.
Note: Range of definition for dimensions: [0, 20000] mm.
