Training

The FEUER powertrain group has the highest standards for technologies and systems.

TECHNOLOGIES

Applying over 20 different technologies (standard and special), FEUER powertrain is able to implement and produce a large variety of different crankshaft designs. These technologies include for example fillet rolling and roll straightening, ECM deburring, gear shaping, gear and timing wheel installation, in addition to technologies such as sensor testing, friction welding or assembly of expanders to seal the oil gallery.

Milling

A machine park that is consisting of internal and external cylindrical milling machines provides the basis to produce highly complex geometrical features. The combination of high speed machining and complex machine tool kinematics allows the most efficient machining solution.

Drilling

Flexible machining centres are available to execute five machining operations required on crankshafts: cutting to length and centering, drilling of oil galleries, drilling of lightening holes, machining of crankshaft ends – all offering excellent process reliability and efficiency.

Hardening

Maximum resistance to wear as well as to bending and torsional loads can be achieved with induction hardening systems. The equipment is featuring modular tool sets for induction hardening and allows the processing of different workpiece geometries.

Grinding

Orbital grinding machines with 2 spindles and CBN grinding wheels assure a highly productive grinding process for crankshafts. Crankshaft journals like main, pin and thrust bearings are ground on grinding machines with one or two workrests.

Superfinishing

Multi-step belt polishing with belt qualities, process steps and polishing shoes adapted adapted to the production task are used to achieve perfect surface profiles and textures that offer a high contact area ratio and an ideal bearing form.

Final measurement

Highly flexible optical instruments measure every single component prior to delivery. Top quality is assured here thanks to detailed process analysis at all stages of machining and automatic verification of the main characteristics.

Automation

Automatic commissioning of raw parts

The use of industrial robots helps to organise production processes with maximum efficiency. Interaction takes place for example between robot automation and image processing for the automatic commissioning of forgings. This is permitting their direct automated dispatch to the requisitioning plant over multiple production lines.

Automatisierung

Automatische Rohteilauflage

Der Einsatz von Industrierobotern ermöglicht es, Produktionsprozesse außerordentlich effizient zu gestalten. Roboterautomatik und Bildverarbeitung wirken beispielsweise bei der automatischen Rohteilauflage zusammen, diese können produktionslinienübergreifend direkt und automatisiert an das anfordernde Werk geschickt werden.

Connecting bridges

Connection between the plants at the Nordhausen site is completely automatic: every machine can be directly accessed and integrated in the process flow via connecting bridges.
