How Crankshafts Are Made
A crankshaft is a mechanical part able to perform a conversion between reciprocating motion and rotational motion. In a reciprocating engine, it translates reciprocating motion of the piston into rotational motion, whereas in a reciprocating compressor, it converts the rotational motion into reciprocating motion.

Crankshafts can be monolithic (made in a single piece) or assembled from several pieces. Take a look behind the scenes, where The WFL M60 machine does the magic. The WFL M60 demonstrates it’s capabilities by machining a complete crankshaft in one operation.
