This video is best read as a control loop rather than a press operation. Every shaft starts with a probe scan during rotation, producing a runout map; the controller computes a stroke, the ram executes it, and a second scan measures what actually happened to the metal. The difference between expected and measured correction becomes the input for the next stroke, so springback and variation between bars are absorbed automatically. When the scan matches target, the part is unloaded — with its before-and-after readings stored.
That stored data is as valuable as the straightening itself: every shaft leaves with a recorded runout value, giving quality teams traceability without separate inspection and a clear record for any customer claim. Accuracy holds at 0.10–0.30 mm/m for general shafts and tighter bands for automotive work. Our TIR measurement guide explains how the logged numbers relate to drawing callouts.
The configuration suits suppliers who must provide runout evidence with deliveries — automotive tier makers, hydraulic component plants, and rotor workshops handling motor shafts, piston rods, and long axles up to 12 m and Ø600 mm. Data export, MES connection, and gantry loading are integrated at build, machines run on 380–480 V three-phase, and delivery runs 60–120 days. Standard options are in the lineup of automatic shaft straightening machines.
When runout reports are required, settle the format early: send traceability requirements with the prints, and we map our per-piece logging export to your quality system during quotation — request a quote.
