The axle is a part designed only to support the rotating parts, and does not directly participate in the transmission of energy. Shafts are designed to support the rotating parts of the machine and to transmit torque from one rotating part of the machine to another. The choice of material is determined by the design of the shaft, the requirements for it, the operating conditions, and the necessary period of guarantee of trouble-free operation. This article analyzes the materials used in the manufacture of shafts and axles.
