Flexible elastic shaft in carbon-fiber composite. Minimal inertia, high torsional stiffness, reduced mass. Premium solution for ultra-dynamic servomotors and aerospace applications.
The SWC is the premium carbon-fibre solution — minimum inertia, maximum rigidity, aerospace applications.
Carbon fibre offers about three times lower inertia than aluminium for equivalent rigidity. Optimal dynamic response on ultra-high-dynamic servomotors.
The 45°-oriented braided carbon fibre offers high torsional rigidity while retaining flexion flexibility. Maximum angular precision between the two shafts.
High-end solution for aerospace applications, advanced robotics, precision metrology, scientific instrumentation. Where every gram and every microsecond counts.

The SWC carbon-fibre flexible elastic shaft is the premium solution for applications where inertia and mass are critical factors: ultra-high-dynamic servomotors, advanced robotics, aerospace applications, precision metrology, scientific instrumentation.
The body consists of a tube of braided composite carbon fibre, usually at 45° to optimise the torsional-rigidity / flexion-flexibility compromise. Carbon fibre offers about three times lower inertia than aluminium for equivalent rigidity.
The metal end-pieces (aluminium or steel) are glued or shrink-fitted onto the carbon tube and receive the shaft by conventional clamping. Angular precision is maximum thanks to the absence of torsional backlash and the high rigidity of the composite.
