Thank you all for the comments. Much appreciated.
@Desertfox - thankyou for the comment. The shaft is running at 425rpm. There isn't lot of weld, the weld is only to seal the joint faces. Also after weld the complete shaft will be clocked and remachined to ensure all diameters are concentric...
Hi
Thank you all for the comments. Much appreciated.
Coupling or shrink disc cannot be added as the shaft goes through series of collars and bearings before it gets coupled to the gearbox.
The concept to join the two pieces is taken from drill pipe joints...
Hi there
