The new processing technique and novel fiber orientation for composite shafts aim to produce mechanical properties with high torsional stiffness while allowing angular misalignment. The shafts should allow for a similar result as a constant velocity shaft or universal joint except that the angular misalignment capabilities are provided through fiber orientation.
