Class-approved cold straightening

MarineShaft is specialized in class-approved cold straightening of all types of shafts. We can repair a damaged and bent propeller shaft, tail shaft, intermediate shaft, ram shaft, cam shaft, rudder stock, rotor shafts, generator shafts etc. with short delivery time.  

We have many years of experience and our straightening method is approved by all the leading classification societies as a permanent repair without any conditions. This shaft alignment service was first approved by Bureau Veritas in 1972.

How to put a bent shaft straight? 

The cold straightening of shafts is carried out with our purpose-built hydraulic press and our biggest press can press with up to 6,000 tonnes. This is a cold process without use of any heating. 

How big shafts can be straightened?

We can straighten shafts from 20 mm up to 1,500 mm in diameter with no limitation to the length.

All shafts are thoroughly inspected and tested before and after straightening for crack indications.  All work is done in close co-operation with the classification societies, and a certificate is issued on each individual repair. 

Advantages of cold straightening:

  • It is fully approved by all major classification societies
  • It is considered to be a permanent repair
  • The result is equivalent to a new shaft – max. 5/100 mm
  • It is fast and cost effective
  • The metallurgy of the shaft material is not adversely affected
  • It is an environmentally friendly solution

We always have capacity for urgent repairs

Our many years of experience qualifies us to make the right decisions fast. Another strength is our short decision paths – this enables us to act immediately. 

Laser Cladding

With our welding repair technique – laser cladding, we are able to solve cases, where normal welding is not allowed or the extent of the repair is best solved with laser cladding.

The advantages with laser cladding are plenty:

  • We can weld on high-carbon steel
  • The welding requires no heat treatment afterwards
  • The repair is very fast and cost-effective
  • The repair can be carried out on-site

The repair is carried out with documentation and class approval.

100% attachment to base material

The laser cladding is carried out with all sorts of welding powder such as inconel 625, stelite 21 and bronze etc.  The technique guarantees  a 100 % attachment of the filler material to the base material. The laser cladding process is carried out with a numerically controlled robot  giving us many geometric opportunities
