Onsite Machining of Crankshaft | Repair of Crankshaft


We are the specialist in Onsite Machining of crankpins upto 700 mm diameter without removal of crankshaft from the engine block.

       Repair of Crankshaft

The Onsite Crankshaft Machining is possible due to the introduction of light-weight, compact crankshaft grinding machine which sits on the crankpin diameter of the crankshaft and grinding is done. The failure of crankpins due to the seizure of bearings, normal wear and tear or accident is possible even in the main and auxiliary engines which are well-maintained. The failure of crankshaft causes lot of inconvenience, expensive downtime and loss of revenue to the owners.
