Crankshaft for DAF WS

The crankshaft CE136C/1 serves as the central rotating component within DAF WS series engines. It functions by converting the linear reciprocating motion generated by the pistons during the combustion cycle into the rotational motion required to drive the transmission and auxiliary systems of the machine. This component is engineered to manage the torque and mechanical loads transferred from the connecting rods throughout the engine operation.

This part is compatible with DAF WS series engines. It features precision-ground main and connecting rod journals designed to interface with the engine bearings, facilitating consistent rotation and oil film distribution. The component is balanced to meet the operational requirements of the DAF WS engine architecture.

A crankshaft acts as the backbone of an internal combustion engine. It translates the force of the power stroke into rotational torque, which is then delivered to the flywheel and drivetrain. Proper alignment and surface finish of the journals are necessary to maintain the integrity of the engine's rotating assembly and to ensure the effective transmission of power to the machine's drive systems.
