    Ive learned how to land a 747, and now I know how to replace a crankshaft on a cruise ship, all thanks to CZcams..

    Worked on car engines most of my life. This is nothing short of astounding. The amount of actual work involved in this little deal is just mind numbing. That crankshaft is the most incredible engine component my eyes have ever witnessed. Would love to see how it's made. These guys definitely earn there paycheck.

      Many cruise lines offer behind the scenes tours. I’ve done one before. You get to tour the galley, engine control room (not actual engine room), the “I-95 corridor”, the bridge and the likes. Pretty interesting. I usually steer clear of the casinos and the money grab type activities.

    Truly impressive how they move the 7.5 metric tons crankshaft in a such a narrow space front the upper floors down to the engine. Was a bit surprised that the engine block had to be lifted up and then lift up the crankshaft and bolted from under. There must be a reason to do it this way anyway I find it very cool how they managed....

    • @johnsim3722
      @johnsim3722 Před 2 lety +1

      Because the bolts to the conrods connecting to the pistons will only be accessible from below. Plus the main bearings on the engine block only from below. Just like on a car engine. Some will do work from under the car rather than taking the engine out.

    Watch ALE Heavylift performing a crankshaft exchange on ms Zaandam in Uruguay.
    The ship's old crankshaft was replaced with a new one, weighing 7.5 tons, via jacking and skidding techniques. Zaandam's old crankshaft was damaged at the bearing points from wear. The exchange took 3 days to complete following a week of preparation.
