Whirling of Shafts Apparatus is used for studying the critical rotational speeds on simply loaded of various shafts.

It is a self-contained bench mounting. Apparatus includes a DC motor drives the shaft via a flexible coupling. Motor speed can be continuously variable and displayed on a digital readout by a revolution counter. A transparent protective cover and safety rings ensure safe operation. The unit includes the tools need for easy experiment setup.
