A universal joint is a junction or coupling that connects two spinning shafts that are parallel but not converging. It is also known as a universal coupling, a Cardan joint, a U joint, a Hardy-Spicer joint, or Hooke's joint. Motion, power, or both can be transmitted using a universal joint, a positive mechanical connection of all flexible couplings, the universal joint is one of the most ancient. It is primarily used on trucks and cars, as is common knowledge. Several industrial systems employ universal joints, which combine three materials: aluminium magnesium copper steel. It comprises of two hinges joined by a cross shaft that are near to one another and are aligned at 90 degrees to one another. Here, a universal coupling is redesigned in order to transmit power between two misaligned axes. Its strength to bear a given load is significantly greater than that of the present design. Engineers will be able to communicate thanks to innovative universal coupling designs, the motion of the driver shaft to the drive shaft at an axis that is not aligned (more than one axis). Using CATIA, a 3D modelling and analysis programme, and stress analysis, a universal joint was modelled and examined. The design of the Universal coupling is optimised using a finite element-based method. This Finite Element Method analysis of Universal coupling makes use of ANSYS software for the stress analysis and loading condition.
