Cardan Repair When it comes to cardan repairs in general, the idea is often circulated that the only repair options available are the replacement of the intermediate support and the cardan joints. However, these operations are debatable and depend on how these parts are assembled and mounted by the manufacturer. In the case of the joints, they can be replaced with certainty and can be changed quite easily, or they may be pressed in, where the installation becomes more difficult and involves centering them and pressing with special pressing heads. When it comes to bearings, they can generally be replaced, but there are cases where the cardan is not dismountable, making replacement difficult, which involves disassembling the inner joint through lathe processing. The fork, sliding parts, and tube are elements that are not dismountable, and their replacement with new parts can only be done by cutting them off the cardan and using connecting parts mounted hot between the cardan shaft and the new replaced part, where it is centered and welded on a special bench. Therefore, the possibility of cardan repairs does not lie in the impossibility of processing and handling capabilities but rather in the lack of compatible spare parts, where constructive modifications and adaptations can also be made to complete the repair options.
