We have developed a revolutionized tooling which has the capabilities to execute the repairs to close tolerances as stipulated in the engine manufacturer’s manual.

Case Study of Repair of MAK-1 8CM32C Engine Crankshaft In Burkina Faso, West Africa

The major details of the crankshaft of the MAK-1 8CM32C Engine are as follows:

i) Due to the repeated failure of bearings, it was decided by the client to get an audit of the crankshaft for all the major parameters. RA Power Solutions deputed two (2) technicians along with the onsite crankshaft grinding machine from New Delhi to Burkina Faso. During the initial inspection, the following was checked and observed.

a) The dimensional inspection of the crankpins was conducted, and excessive ovality was observed in all the crankpins. The readings for all the crankpins are pasted below:

b) As protocol, all the crankpins were checked for hardness by a portable hardness tester and were found within limits.

c) MPI was also undertaken to check the cracks, and no abnormality was observed.

ii) The grinding of all the eight (8) crankpins was executed onsite by our technicians. The first step size and tolerance of 0.02/0.03 MM were maintained.

On site crankshaft polishing and crankshaft grinding machines have the following advantages:

• In case of the development of line marks, pitting, watermarks, etc. it is advisable to undertake the polishing.
• The introduction of the crankshaft polishing machine by RA Power Solutions has made it very easy and simple to polish the crankpin and main journal.
• The polishing enhances the surface finish, removes line marks, and pitting marks, and makes the crankpin and main journal diameter as smooth as the original.
• It is a known fact that in case the crank pin and main journal diameter have line marks and poor surface finish the bearing life is reduced. There is also a chance of serious damage to the crankpin and main journal of the crankshaft and corresponding bearings. To increase the life of the crankshaft of a diesel engine, compressor, rotor, or alternator it is advisable to undertake the polishing periodically.
• The cost of a machine manufactured by RA Power Solutions is very low and can be owned by shipping companies, heavy engineering plants, repair workshops, etc.
• The machine is lightweight, portable, and can be taken to the site all over the world.
• With the polishing machine, you can also undertake the grinding of crankpins and main journals.

RA Power Solutions manufactures crankshaft polishing machines and onsite crankshaft grinding machines up to 700 mm in diameter and has sold more than 70 machines all over the world for the last 43 years.
