Few years back, no one believed that the crankshafts, crankpin and main journal can be polished onsite by the end user. Always the impression was given by few companies based in Europe and Singapore that crankshaft polishing needs special heavy equipments and technicians with years of experience to undertake the polishing of crankshaft, crankpin, and main journal.

Crankpin Machining is Required in Case of the Following Damage to the Crankpin

1. Development of excessive taper & ovality on a crankpin.Seizure of crankpin bearingDevelopment of bearing marks and pitting on crankpin.
2. Development of excessive taper & ovality on a Crankpin diameter.
3. Seizure of crankpin bearing.
4. Development of bearing marks and pitting on the crankpin.
5. Due to the above defects, it is necessary to get the Crankpin Machining undertaken.
