CE CENTA - The Market Leader for Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic Shafts for Ship and Boat Propulsion CENTA - Der Marktführer bei Carbonfaser Antriebswellen für Schiffsantriebe From its formation in 1970, CENTA, the leading manufacturer of flexible couplings and shafts has advanced the technology of drive shafts for boat and ship propulsion, using innovative solutions in its product line to satisfy the most demanding applications. Since 1996 CENTA has become the market leader worldwide for Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic shafts (CFRP). CENTA, seit 1970 führender Hersteller von elastischen Kupplungen...

Advantages of CFRP shafts • Low weight - typically 70% of weight is saved compared to conventional steel shafts. • Longer spans reducing or eliminating line shaft bearings hence providing lower weight and less assembly parts. (Saving not only the pedestal bearings, but also the cost and weight of the structure supporting the pedestales). • Long service life, no corrosion, no wear, no maintenance, non magnetic. • Low thermal expansion. • Noise damping Vorteile der CFRP-Wellen • Niedriges Gewicht. Typischerweise werden ca. 70% Ge-wicht im Vergleich zu konventionellen Stahlwellen ein-gespart. •...

CENTA CFRP Shafts have already been delivered with classifications of: CENTA CFRP Wellen wurden bereits für folgende Klassifikationen geliefert: In general they can be supplied to any classification. Grundsätzlich können sie für jede Klassifikation geliefert werden. Based on the cooperation with a technical university, classification societies and our own extensive tests, rules for the dimensioning of tubes and their patented connection with the metal hubs have been developed, which leads to a very reliable dimensioning with a safety factor of 6-fold static and 3-fold dynamic, of the nominal...

The CENTA selection is based on special computer programmes analysing the important criteria: transmittable torque, diameter, wall strength, torsional stiffness and bending stiffness of the carbon shafts. Bei der Auslegung werden von CENTA mit speziellen Computerprogrammen folgende wichtige Kriterien berechnet: übertragbares Drehmoment, Durchmesser, Wandstärke, Drehsteifigkeit und Biegesteifigkeit der Carbonrohre. All these features can be influenced, changed and optimised to a certain extent. Alle diese Eigenschaften können in weiten Grenzen beeinflußt, geändert und optimiert werden. CENTA can...

Typical arrangement of CENTA couplings and carbon fibre shafts. The first sections behind the engines also comprise two CENTAX torsional couplings each, that tune the torsional vibrations of the system. Typische Anordnung von CENTA Kupplungen und Carbonfaser Antriebswellen. Der erste Ab-schnitt nach dem Dieselmotor enthalt je zwei drehelastische CENTAX-Kupplungen, die das System drehschwingungstechnisch richtig ab-stimmen. CENTA Power Transmission leading by innovation
