The Italian company ROBBI S.p.A. is one of the most famous European manufacturers of machinery and equipment for engine reconditioning.
ROBBI has traditionally been one of the top three world leaders in the production of precision equipment for the engine part repair. However, with the closure of BERCO engine repair machine factory and at the same time a similar AMC-SCHOU factory moved to China, ROBBI has confidently become Europe’s first and foremost manufacturer of engine repair machines, leaving its competitors far behind.
ROBBI equipment works at the factories of the leading engine manufacturers, in repair shops and car services all over the World and is very and well-deservedly popular among repair specialists.
ROBBI equipment is recommended for engine repair by leading manufacturers of heavy equipment Caterpillar and Comatsu, as well as a well-known manufacturer of components for heavy machines — Maruma (Japan).
ROBBI’s manufacturing program includes a complete line of machines and fixtures required for engine part machining.
The ROBBI machine range is a line of industrial equipment, including vertical and horizontal honing machines, as well as a line of repair equipment, including crankshaft grinders, cylinder block boring and honing machines, surface grinders, line-boring machines for bearings and many others. A detailed description of the machines of both lines of ROBBI equipment can be found below.
Equipment ROBBI for engine repair
ROBBI machine range for engine part repair mainly includes machines for the repair, restoration and inspection of components of the lower part of the engines — the crank mechanism and the cylinder-piston group. These are, among other things, grinding machines for crankshafts, boring machines for cylinder blocks, honing machines for cylinders, surface grinders for head plane machining, line-boring machines for crankshaft and camshaft bearings in cylinder blocks and heads, machines for connecting rod grinding and boring and other equipment.
ROBBI produces the following lines of machines and equipment for engine repair:
Crankshaft grinding machines
They allow grinding the shafts up to 6000 mm long and up to 6000 kg weighing. They are ones of the best machines in this machine class. They satisfy all the technical requirements for the restoration of both single parts and small or medium series of crankshafts. They have a smooth adjustment of the rotation of the workpiece, controlled through a potentiometer, an original and very accurate system for aligning the position of crankshaft, mutual movement of chucks in 4 directions with a reliable setting-up clamping system, the possibility of grinding main and connecting rod journals in the centers and other advantages over analogues.

Cylinder boring machines
The cast iron base and powerful electric motors provide higher precision and productivity compared to machines of the same class. All the motors have smooth speed control, there is a smoothly variable table feed and the ability to install a milling head for precise milling, a large selection of spindles and fixtures, including grinding and honing. Easy positioning and centering of the spindle makes work easy and fast. See more…
Lineboring machines for cylinder block and head bearings
They allow to bore the crankshaft and camshaft bearings in cylinder
heads and blocks with diameter of 23-200 mm and a length up to 3200 mm. Infinitely adjustable spindle speed, lateral adjustment of the boring head, convenient centering of boring bars on columns, an efficient lubrication system and chrome-plated boring bars with cast iron bearings ensure fast and accurate machine operation for decades. See more…
Cylinder honing machines
They allow to honing any cylinders with a diameter of 31-300 mm and a length up to 800 mm. Represented by models with manual and automatic hydraulic feed of abrasive stones for unclamping, including with smooth electronic control of the speed and feed, electronic control of the vertical feed of the honing head and the supply of honing stones for unclamping, with electronic indication of parameters, with longitudinal and transverse table movement. Large selection of universal and special multi-stone (5-6 stones) honing heads with taper adjustment ensures accurate honing of any hole. See more…
Surface grinding/milling machines for cylinder block and head plates
Precise and reliable machines that allow surface machining up to 2600 mm long and up to 480 mm wide. The cast-iron bed provides rigidity and accuracy of machining. The machines feature variable speed hydraulic table feed, adjustable roller bearing spindle, segmented grinding wheel, milling head and a wide range of tools and attachments including grinding wheels, magnetic and turntables for machining flywheels and clutch pressure plates. See more…
Conrod boring and grinding machines
They allow boring and grinding the holes of the upper (piston) and lower (crank) heads of any connecting rods with holes diameters of 13-160 mm with a center distance of 90-530 mm. The machines have an accurate and fast centering of the connecting rod hole with a special centering device with indicator, in which provides the centering of various types of connecting rods for less than 20 seconds, and the centering of the same connecting rod takes less than 10 seconds. High precision direct reading measuring device, special fast tool with easy adjustment for boring and/or grinding, main spindle mounted on adjustable anti-friction precision bushings, specially designed for fine boring/grinding of all diameters, make work easy, fast and accurate.
Extra and auxiliary equipment
They designed for auxiliary work — detecting the cracks, straightening the shafts, checking the connecting rods, boring small cylinders, grinding the valves and other works. A wide range of inexpensive auxiliary machines, equipment and fixtures allows you to perform a full range of repair work to restore engines.
Industrial equipment ROBBI
In the production of machinery and equipment, it is often necessary to accurately machine holes in body parts and pipes. With large dimensions and mass of parts, as well as with a large length of holes, the use of internal grinding is difficult or even impossible. In such cases, the best solution is to use honing on special horizontal and vertical honing machines. ROBBI offers customers reliable and user-friendly equipment to most effectively solve the problems of industrial honing of holes in heavy and large parts.
ROBBI produces the following lines of machines and equipment for industrial honing:
Vertical honing machines SET YUM.
They allow honing any cylinders with a diameter of 30-400 mm and a length up to 2200 mm. The machines of the SET YUM line are able to quickly remove large allowances and machine holes accurately. Represented by models with manual and automatic feed of abrasive stones for unclamping, including those with smooth electronic control of the rotating speed and feed, electronic control of the vertical feed of the honing head and the feed of honing stones for unclamping, including electronic indication of parameters. A large selection of special multi-stone (5-6 stones) honing heads ensures fast and accurate honing of any hole. For heavy workpieces and high performance requirements, the machines can be equipped with special removable tables and hydraulic clamping devices. Vertical honing machines of the YUM line have other advantages over analogues. See more…
Tube horizontal honing machines LYOR.
Allows honing of tubes up to 8000 mm long and 26-400 mm in internal diameter. The LYOR line of horizontal tube honing machines are among the best machines in this class of machines. They have smooth adjustment of spindle rotation and feed, part rotation, as well as hydraulic feed of honing head bars for expansion. Machines of this line can process both a fixed part fixed on prismatic supports and be equipped with chucks with a reliable clamping system and part drive, which make it possible to rotate the part in the direction opposite to the rotation of the honing head.
