Balancing machines for crankshafts

Product catalog summary
Areas of Application
The document describes a machine designed for measuring and correcting the unbalance of fully machined crankshafts for passenger and commercial vehicles. It is suitable for medium-scale production and can handle a variety of crankshaft types. Loading can be manual or automatic, and the machine accommodates various size ranges.
Correction Method
Unbalance correction is achieved by drilling into the counterweights, either in one or two steps. The machine allows for optimized polar single spindle drilling, with the option to protect or select specific sectors. In two-step corrections, different areas can be chosen for each step. The process is fully automated, offering flexibility, short changeover times, and environmentally friendly operation with minimal lubrication.
Machine Features
The machine includes a welded bed with a funnel-shaped opening for chip discharge, a microprocessor-controlled measuring device for indexing and drilling depth control, and a CAB 850 measuring device with an industrial PC and touch screen. It supports high-speed drilling and optimized correction, ensuring high reliability with proven components.
Principle of Operation
The operation involves loading the workpiece, closing the protective door, and starting the automatic run, which includes measuring, correction drilling, and a check run. After the process, the protective door is opened, and the workpiece is unloaded.
Technical Specifications
The machine is equipped with a solid balancing frame, hydrodynamic multiple bearings, and an NC-controlled drilling machine. It supports various crankshaft weights and dimensions, with specific parameters for passenger and commercial vehicle crankshafts. The machine offers minimal lubrication, chip conveyor, and optional equipment like a twin-spindle drilling head for different drilling diameters.
Optional Equipment
Optional features include a cooling agent preparation unit, lifting device for manual loading, and a twin-spindle drilling head for applications requiring two drilling diameters.
Data and Contact Information
The document provides detailed technical data for different machine types and contact information for SCHENCK RoTec GmbH for further inquiries.

Balancing machines for crankshafts-1

Fully automatic balancing of crankshafts Special flexibility and short changeover times Short cycle times due to high speed drilling and optimised correction Environmentally friendly operation with minimum lubrication without the necessity for drill coolant is possible High reliability due to the application of proven components Efficient measuring device CAB 850 with industrial PC and touch screen Integrated operation of measuring device and machine Balancing machines for crankshafts Type 320/520 SBRK Correction method Measuring and correction of the unbalance of completely machined crankshafts of passenger and commercial vehicles. The machine can be used for the production of medium scale series, even with a large number of different types. Loading is effected manually by means of a lifting device or automatically by means of the gantry loader. The machine is available for various size ranges. Unbalance correction by means of drilling into the counterweights in one or two correction steps. Optimised polar single spindle drilling into all counterweights permitted for such drilling, whereby any sectors can be protected or selected. In case of 2-step correction, separate areas can be selected for the 1st and the 2nd step. If different drilling diameters are required the machine can be equipped with a drilling unit including two drilling spindles and with a selection function.

Balancing machines for crankshafts-3

Cooling agent preparation unit with 30µ band filter and high pressure pump for operation with lubricoolant emulsions or oil and high pressure pumps for internal cooling of the drilling tool. The unbalance is measured and corrected in one station so that less operating steps are required Due to the vibrating frame with multiple half shell bearings the load per surface unit arising during drilling is reduced and less strain is put on the main bearings. The bearings are lubricated and optionally flushed. The design is made for the use of carbide tools. The sturdy construction allows for using the...
