Crankshaft Milling Machines
Precise, efficient crankshaft production – with our innovative milling machines
Large crankshaft milling machines
For the demanding production of large crankshafts in shipbuilding and the oil and gas industry, GFM offers high-precision and high-performance milling machines. With innovative technology and decades of experience, we set standards in the production of complex components.
Technology
Internal Milling
Benefits
Although we also offer external milling machines, our most important machines are based on the internal milling principle. The shaft is clamped throughout the process and the milling cutter head moves around the shaft.
- Higher machining rate (up to approximately 1000 kg/hour) than for external milling (at the same tool load)
- More rigid drive due to the large tool diameter
