Compressor Crankshaft Grinding and Polishing Onsite

RA Power Solutions was approached by a leading Fertilizer producing company based in north India regarding the requirement of onsite grinding and polishing of compressor crankshaft.

The company has five high-capacity CO2 compressors which have been imported from a leading company based in Europe.

Our team consisting of three technicians along with onsite crankshaft grinding equipment was deputed to the site and following was observed:

Details of CO2 Compressor Crankshaft:

S. NO	Crankshaft Details
1	Engine Make/ Model	CO2 COMPRESSOR
2	Crankpin Diameter Standard	317.30 MM
3	Crankpin Bearing Width	210.00 MM
4	Main Journal diameter	330 mm & 317.30 mm
5	Main Journal Width	370 mm & 225 mm
6	Place of execution of crankshaft repair	Fertilizers & Chemicals Plant in India

On dimensional inspection of crankpin it was observed that crankpin nos. 02 developed excessive ovality. It also had deep line marks due to the failure of bearings which are of babbitt white metal type.
All the remaining crankpins were inspected and rough surfaces including bearing line marks were observed.
The main journal having a standard diameter of 330 mm also had a rough surface and required polishing.

Action taken by RA Power Solutions

Considering the fact that the main journal having a diameter of 330 mm having a rough surface and bearing line marks it was decided to remove the crankshaft from the compressor.

RA Power Solutions technicians submitted a drawing of V-Block which were manufactured in the factory for placement of crankshaft.

The grinding of crankpin no. 02 was undertaken and the final dimensions were maintained between 315.58 mm to 315.60 mm. The ovality of only 0.02 mm was observed.

All the remaining 05 crankpins were polished, removing the line marks and improving the surface finish. The surface finish after polishing was observed at less than 15 RA value.

All the main journals were also polished onsite removing the ovality to some extent and improving the surface finish again to less than 15 RA value.
