Within Elliott's Flexshaft Product Group, our commitment is to design and produce
flexible drive and control shaft products to
address advanced applications where precision performance, demanding conditions and high-operational reliability requirements must be met.
Elliott Flexshaft products are used for transferring rotary power through turns and obstructed areas where direct alignment is not possible. The properly designed flexible shaft can provide a reliable design solution capable of a long service life without replacement.
Sharing application requirements early in a program has proven to be the key to cost-effective, reliable flexible shaft design. Because the sum performance must be greater than its individual parts, the flexible shaft is best viewed as a single encompassing unit. Bend and torque requirements, interface compatibility, load distribution, materials, environmental considerations, and service ability; are all of equal importance. An early relationship with our engineering staff and the utilization of our Computer Aided Design (CAD) system ensures an optimum product design which is critical to the overall effectiveness of the system.
