Repair of Crankshaft on Board a Vessel – RA Power Solutions

Crankshaft repair is possible without removing the crankshaft from the block. In case of failure of bearing, it is generally observed that the crankshaft is damaged. While it is easy to replace the bearings, it is a challenging proposition to undertake the repair of crankshaft and put the engine back into operation.

Removal of onboard crankshaft repair from the engine block inevitably translates to a high cost of repair and downtime. RA Power Solutions undertakes repair of the crankshaft onsite without removing it from the engine block. The portable, lightweight crankshaft grinding machine is taken to the site by experienced technicians to undertake crankshaft repair by grinding.

The important parameters prior to crankshaft repair are checked like taper and ovality, hardness, crack, physical profile of lube oil and radius fillet, etc. In the event, that all the major parameters fall within the stipulated tolerances of the manufacturer’s specifications and tolerances, crankshaft repair is undertaken.
