How to Determine the Engine Flywheel Offset
Jeff & Jim tackle a common question that we receive here at Palmer Johnson Power Systems, “How do you measure the offset of an industrial engine?” They provide instructions on how to measure the offset of an industrial engine properly.
Being able to provide the engine offset is required in new applications and repowers of several pieces of drivetrain components in industrial off-highway equipment such as gearboxes, pump drives, transmissions, transfer cases, PTOs, couplings, and more.
Download the SAE standards document below to assist in determining the flywheel offset of an industrial engine. The needed measurement is the Y dimension.

Leading the way to hybrid diesel electric propulsion
With over $1.2 million in funding from the Department of Energy, the Mirage will be equipped with electric motors and a new reduction gear, aiming for around 20% fuel savings and reduced engine wear. While hybrid propulsion tech is still years from widespread adoption, ALFA's efforts, alongside energy consultant Chandler Kemp, are setting the groundwork for a more efficient and eco-friendly future for the fishing industry.
