max no. of propeller shaft in a vehicle
(OP)
hi friend!
i just want to know is there some kind of contraint using no of propeller shafts in a vehicle. currently we are manufacturing a vehicle with 4 nos of popeller shafts(bus). is it possible to provide 6 nos,7 nos propeller shafts, if nos of propeller shsfts are more- how it will affect the performance of vehicle.becoz more no of propeller shaft more mobilty of joints u get but it causes a problem of breakage,slip & dust entry points.

The more propeller shafts you have the more problems you will get with balance and joint orientation issues. Obviously they'll cost more as well.

We once made and supplied shafts for fire engine pumps and the sytem consisted of 6 shafts all at different angles.
