29-10-2020 Machining of motor shafts

A tin factory contracted Breman Machinery to machine motor shafts to produce aluminium sheets. Our work consisted of turning and milling. We then milled T-slots on the boring machine.

The difficulty of this assignment lay in the weight of the shaft. With a length of 6 metres, it was compact in size but it weighed 80 tonnes. Without a systematic plan, there was a risk of material deflection due to working with such heavy machinery, however, Breman Machinery has the resources and expertise to prevent deflection and ensure that the project was manufactured to the client’s wishes.
