Driveshaft Machining Lathes

General Specifications

This wonderful addition to the driveshaft shop is proving to be one of the greatest time savers to come along in years. Ask any experienced “tech” and they will tell you it’s not always enough to machine out the weld. Remember, the yokes and stubs were pressed in prior to welding with either a 10 or 15 ton press. That process now has to be reversed either with a “young bull with a big hammer,” or with a dedicated machine. We might add, that it helps with the removal of carrier bearings as well.

The Dial model 2040-G added to a driveline shop proves to be one of the most versatile machines you can have. Not only doing all the tasks required to prepare a shaft for yoke and stub removal but also for turning down shafts etc. This photo, {shown without chuck and face guards for clarity) is a “must have” for a busy shop.
