Mega Diesel Engines - How To Build A 13,600 HP Engine | Full Documentary

MTU Friedrichshafen is a brand of Rolls-Royce Power Systems. Their drive systems and large diesel engines, for example, properly heat up ships, heavy and military vehicles or railways. It is not uncommon for such drives to have outputs of up to 13,600 hp. The mega-diesels are manufactured in the idyllic Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance, but the engines "Made in Germany" have long been used worldwide.

In many ways I prefer similar videos from the 40's and 50's. In those old films they give much more focus about the precision required, and the skill of the workers. It is almost a theme. In nearly all of the modern equivalent videos, they are always adding fake drama with stressful music and talking about all the things that could go wrong, how dangerous it is, how much it will cost if something goes wrong. These workers are professionals who do this work every day. There is no drama like is always added these days. I really hate all the added drama and the loss of focus on the skill of the workers.

[@marc2638]

It’s a assembly line production there is no skill involved you do only what is required in your section of the assembly,,, absolutely zero skill involved in assembly line workers they’re some of the simplistic workers out there, not like construction or mechanics or electricians plumbers welder assembly line workers are pretty much brainless and just follow instruction in and on their section of the assembly. I don’t mean to be insulting about this work but it involves no skill whatsoever which is why cooperation’s utilize assembly lines to produce,,,,,,, just like American car makers it’s all assembly line work no skill involved they just put stuff together and send it down the line

Being an engine machinist and Rebuilder this has been one of the most interesting videos I have seen in a long time pressurizing the bolts with oil was something that I never knew was done I learned something new keep up the good work

[@lloydholt6511]

Mantis 0001 hydraulic wrenches have been used for years in heavy industry. They are capable of reaching torque values well over 1000 lb/ft. In some installations cal rod heaters are inserted into bolting prior to torquing fasteners. Heating the bolting to predetermined values causes the bolting to lengthen. This process results in increased torque values and bolt stretch.

[@lloydholt6511]

Steven Stam don’t understand the question

[@normdoty]

Da Truth : they do not pressurize the bolts with oil. the oil is used to turn a hydraulically powered torque wrench to tighten the bolts or nuts very very accurately to a torque level that a person would find it very hard to reach with a hand tool as well as a person could not tighten multiple fasteners simultaneously where as hydraulics can ..

[@timothyball3144]

@@normdoty Is it a wrench that turns the nut or does the hydraulics stretch the bolt a pre-determined length, the nut run down, then pressure released? It was my understanding that it's the later.

[@neilward5968]

On Pielstik engines, the nuts are run on to the head studs first, then a cage is fitted over them. A hydraulic jack is then run onto the head studs, and sits on the cage and then pressurised. This stretches the head studs enabling the nuts to be rotated until tight with a special tool. The jack pressure is then released , removed, along with cage. They are usually all done at the same time, so all the nuts are tightened at the same time and the same torque. The whole apparatus looks like an octopus, because of all the hydraulic lines protruding from the centre hub.

@@ApexPressureWash 😂 that is funny! This reminds me of a musing I had one day while driving. Police have devices that detect a radar detector used in your car in places where it’s illegal to use a detector. So, radar detector manufacturers invented a technology that could detect the presence of a radar detector detector by it’s ranging frequency. So, I thought naturally the next step in the process would be a tool that would enable speed enforcement officers to detect detectors that can detect radar detecting detectors before the driver’s radar detector can detect the officer’s radar detecting detector and block it’s outgoing energy waves before detection. Simple!

I got to work on two of these before they were installed into the Fred Olsen, replacing power packs due to an upgrade in design. Although they are huge for a high speed diesel, they are surprisingly easy to work on. The biggest obstacle we had was getting the engines inside of the workshop as the building didn't have the overhead crane capacity to lift them. We had to move the engines into position outside the workshop using machine skates underneath their transport frames and pull them with big winches, this left 2cm deep and 10cm wide grooves in the concrete from the machine skates breaking it apart. We then had to remove part of the workshop roof and use 2 X 250 ton mobile cranes to lift the engines into the workshop. I remember the engineers who flew over from Friedrichschafen turning up to work wearing thongs (flip flops), their reason for that was that they were in Australia where it is hot.

Be happy. You could have been working on a BIG Marine Diesel - like a Wärtsilä RT-flex96C or a MAN B&W 12S90ME-C Mark 9.2. But those aren't "high speed" diesels - just very high POWER (and huge torque).

[@LynxStarAuto]

Common rail means there is one fuel rail feeding several cylinders. This is used on modern diesel and direct injected engines. Traditionally, each cylinder would be plumbed directly from the pump, or fuel distributor independently. This worked well, but any air in the system would stall the engine, and made servcining a fastidious, and arduous process. Injector technology, and more importantly engine management systems have allowed the use of common rail, and we haven't looked back since.

@@Limoncello666 I think he was referring to the machining of the bearing surfaces after the block came out of casting as well as the crank and cam, not the repair process, that was clearly explained throughout the documentary. and there probably isn't much to see as the modern machines are usually CNC controlled with covers or gallons of fluid blocking any working views of the detailed process ... but its always awesome to see a machine tool take a raw part and make its precision! :-)

"The tolerances are so minute that they can no longer be perceived by the naked eye." The foreman checked the crankcase with a naked eye.

I'm blown away floored by the time care and tedious work it takes to make something like this. What a interesting video

[@melchurmoreau5677]

That's where skills and initiative comes into play, these people are working with guided precision and pinpoint accuracy, backed up vision judgement and clarity. This is amazing stuff from high powered engineers and technicians. Praise God for the gift he gave man be so inventive and creative!!!

42:40, Brilliant, just added to my German vocabulary: Drehmoment = torque (sehr nützlich)
