Ultra-Heavy-Duty Universal Joints: Transmission Solutions for the Metallurgy Industry

1. Product Overview

Our Ultra-Heavy-Duty Universal Joint series represents the pinnacle of mechanical transmission technology, specifically engineered for the most extreme environments on the planet. With a peak torque capacity of up to 1,200 kN·m, this series serves as the heart of massive steel rolling systems where power and durability are the highest priorities.

2. Formidable Technical Specifications

These joints are manufactured to challenge the limits of physics and engineering:

• Massive Dimensions: Outer diameters ranging from 315 mm to 1,200 mm, accommodating ultra-large drive shafts.

• Ultimate Torque Capacity: A transmission range from 205 kN·m to 1,200 kN·m, ensuring stable operation under the most intense torsional pressures in heavy industry.

• Specialized Operating Angle: Optimized for a maximum deflection angle of 3°. By maintaining a low operating angle, the system focuses total energy on force transmission and protects the joint structure from deformation under ultra-heavy loads.

3. Critical Applications

Due to their elite technical characteristics, these universal joints are the irreplaceable choice for:

• Steel Smelting & Rolling: High-capacity hot rolling mills, cold rolling mills, and continuous casting systems.

• Non-Ferrous Metal Processing: Large-scale production lines for aluminum, copper, and industrial alloys.

• Heavy-Duty Drive Systems: Machinery requiring extreme torsional force and high precision at main shaft positions.

4. Why Choose SKS Ultra-Heavy-Duty Universal Joints?

• Specialized Alloy Steel: Manufactured using premium hardened steel subject to rigorous ultrasonic testing to eliminate all material defects.

• Superior Shock Load Resilience: Engineered based on real-world pressure simulations, allowing the system to withstand sudden torque shocks during the metal rolling process.

• Exceptional Service Life: The cross-joint structure and heavy-duty bearings are optimized for lubrication, minimizing friction and extending maintenance cycles even under 24/7 continuous operation.
