Abstract

A device for monitoring a shaft coupling coupling a first shaft to a second shaft includes an optical unit comprising a receiving element which is designed to receive an electromagnetic radiation in a form of light, and an error notification element designed for arrangement on and/or within the first shaft and on and/or within the second shaft. The error notification element is designed to notify when the first shaft runs asynchronously with respect to the second shaft.
