There are some movies that show the factory, some things can be seen there. (I recall flattening the top of crankcases, if I am correct) |

That lathe on the right is huge, I guess it is used for driveshafts and front axles? |

Forgot about the autorail indeed. What would be the date of this picture? Late 30's? |

It could be thirties,although the overhead belt drive to the machines was going out of fashion by this time.If we could see a Bugatti part somewhere in the picture that would give a clue as to what model was current at the time.The Bugatti wheels need a very large faceplate or chuck to turn them. |

can you imagin all the noise from the belts and the machines in this room ? I think my biggest lathe is the same size . I am looking for info how Bugatti made for example bevel gears ( I belive " Gleason") and crankshafts . |

I recall a movie at Simon Kloppers workshop, where a 4C cranckshaft was made, which was standing vertical, turing slowly (excentric) and the big ends were machined. |

Look at the sales brochure of the T57. There is a photograph of a T57 crankshaft in a lath. ( horizontal ) Jean B |
