Abstract
The invention relates to a machine comprising a first machining module (1) configured to simultaneously machine at least two crankshafts, a second machining module (2) configured to simultaneously machine at least two crankshafts, and a support structure (3) with at least four crankshaft fixing positions (31, 32, 33, 34) for the machining of such crankshafts. The support structure (3) is located between the machining modules. The fixing positions (31, 32, 33, 34) are arranged in two columns (35, 36) of fixing positions, each of which comprises at least two of the fixing positions (31, 32; 33, 34) located at a different height, and the support structure (3) is rotatably arranged, such that it can perform a rotation of at least 180 degrees.

Machine for machining ends of crankshafts, comprising:
- a first machining module (1) configured to simultaneously machine at least two crankshafts;
- a second machining module (2) configured to simultaneously machine at least two crankshafts;
- a support structure (3) for supporting crankshafts, said support structure comprising at least four crankshaft fixing positions (31, 32, 33, 34) for the machining of such crankshafts, said support structure (3) being located between the first machining module and the second machining module, such that the first machining module can machine a first end of a plurality of said crankshafts at the same time as the second machining module machines a second end of the plurality of said crankshafts;
- characterized in that
- said at least four fixing positions (31, 32, 33, 34) are arranged in two columns (35, 36) of fixing positions, each of which comprises at least two of the fixing positions (31, 32;
- 33, 34) located at a different height, for placing the crankshafts to be machined in two columns, each of which comprises at least two crankshafts arranged at a different height;
- and in that
- said support structure (3) is rotatably arranged, such that it can perform a rotation of at least 180 degrees.
