Shaft For Better Machinery

A shaft is a rotating machine component, usually round in cross section, which is used to transmit power from one part to another, or from a motor which produces power to a machine which absorbs power. The various members such as pulleys and gears are mounted on it. They are mainly classified into two types: transmission shafts, which are used to transfer power between the source and the machine absorbing power, and machine shafts are the fundamental part of the machine itself.  There are various shaft manufacturers in India. Let us go through some of the ways in which shafts can be useful.

• Productivity: Shafts increase the productivity by eradicating the ordeal of individual marking, positioning and frequent checking. The operation time is also reduced due to raising in speed, depth of cut because of high clamping rigidity.
• Interchangeability: Shafts facilitate the production of articles in large quantities with a high degree of accuracy, uniform quality and interchangeability at a competitive cost. So one can easily interchange one fixture with another, in the case of an emergency.
• Skill Reduction: There is no need for a special set of skills for fixtures. Shafts make it possible to employ unskilled or semi skilled machine operator to make savings in labor cost. It is an acquired skill and not something that needs advanced qualification.
• Cost reduction: Production in higher quantity and frequency, reduction in scrap, easy assembly and savings in labor cost results in an ultimate reduction in unit cost. So using shafts result in the overall reduced cost as compared to machinery without fixtures.

In addition to these, there are various other factors which make shafts advantageous for your machinery. There are several shaft manufacturers in India; however, there is only a handful which arises as the best. Sawhney Engineering is one of the renowned names when it comes to shafts, spares, and fixtures. They are the most esteemed manufacturers of different types of precision exacting tools, and precision machined components and assemblies for product lines. They are best in the business and do what they do the best.
