too bad you did not show us further to the left, and you may have walk around the subject a bit too.

Overall, thanks for sharing your experience.

I instantly recognize that as a scrap chopper grinder for plastic.I never worked on one that size though.

Thats a pretty big lathe alright.... however ECM has much bigger. Although this is much bigger than the one I have in my dining room.

Is this a cutter being turned? I see the welded area to be finished but that looks like 4 huge steel or carbide cutters on that rotor! What ever it is its pretty cool!

I work in Schenectady and have never seen a 400 ton steam turbine however I have machined a 250 ton nuclear mono block rotor. GE's has a lathe that can handle up to 400 ton. But has not machined a 400 ton rotor. Give you an idea how big a 250 ton mono block is... The wheel diameters are all about 100" and it is over 30 feet long.
