A standout feature of the CLESCRANE GWS wheel block system is the spline gear drive shaft. This drive shaft utilizes spline connections, which are grooves or ridges on the shaft and its mating component, to transmit torque from the motor to the wheels. The design of the spline gear ensures a tight, robust connection that minimizes slippage and power loss, leading to smoother motion and more efficient operation.
The spline gear drive shaft's design allows for better torque transfer compared to traditional round shafts or keyed connections. The unique profile of the spline connection distributes forces more evenly, reducing the likelihood of wear and tear. This makes the system more durable and capable of handling higher operational stresses, leading to reduced maintenance requirements and longer service life.
