Insitu crankshaft machining of Wartsila 9L20 Engine

The Crankshaft Grinding Machine is state-of-the-art equipment designed to restore crankpins and main journals onsite, eliminating the need for engine disassembly or crankshaft removal. Marine, industrial, and power-generation sectors find it indispensable due to its precision, portability, and advanced engineering, which minimizes downtime.

 

Key Features of the Crankshaft Grinding Machine

1. Portable & Modular Engineering

The machine’s lightweight and modular construction enables quick transportation, assembly, and operation directly at site locations—including confined engine rooms, vessels, offshore platforms, and remote industrial facilities.

2. Wide Grinding Range

With the capability to machine crankshafts from 35 mm to 700+ mm, it supports a broad spectrum of engines used in marine propulsion, diesel power plants, industrial equipment, and heavy machinery.

3. Advanced Vibration-Control Technology

Manufactured using specially developed vibration-dampening alloys, the machine ensures exceptional stability during operation. This directly contributes to a superior surface finish and precision, even in the most demanding environments.

4. Micron-Level Accuracy

The machine restores crankpins and main journals to original OEM tolerances. Ovality, taper, and size corrections are executed with high precision, ensuring long-term reliability and smooth engine functioning.

5. Combined Grinding & Polishing System

Grinding and polishing are performed in the same setup without disturbing the alignment. This integrated design saves significant time while delivering consistent journal geometry.

6. Rapid Setup & Alignment

Special fixtures and alignment tools allow the machine to be mounted quickly with perfect axial positioning. This is particularly critical in constrained spaces, as it reduces the overall repair duration.

7. Exceptional Surface Finish

The machine delivers a mirror-like surface suitable for high-speed and high-load-bearing applications, improving lubrication and extending crankshaft life.

How the Machine Operates

(i) Mounting & Fixture Alignment

Custom brackets are used for precise mounting on the crankshaft.

 

(ii) Measurement & Diagnosis

Dial gauges and micrometers record journal wear, taper, and ovality.

 

(iii) High-Precision Grinding

Controlled grinding restores the exact journal size and geometry.

 

(iv) Polishing

The same machine produces a smooth, bearing-ready finish.

 

(v) Final Inspection

Journal dimensions are rechecked to confirm OEM tolerance compliance.
