An engine/compressor crankshaft has several places where rods to the pistons are connected. The rods are on a pin which is offset from the center of the crankshaft.
Thus, as the crankshaft rotates, the pin orbits in a circle around it.
The connecting rod is thus forced back and forth, due to the pin's motion.
The pin is connected to the crankshaft by two pieces called WEBs.
On a perfectly-aligned crankshaft, the distance between the two webs is constant, even as the shaft rotates.
However, after months of constant use, the mounting of the engine/compressor can change: ground settling, worn support structures, bolt tension changes, etc.
When this happens, the distance between the webs can start to vary with rotation. The amount of variation in this distance is called WEB DEFLECTION.
That means the webs are subject to cyclic stress every rotation, and if severe enough, the crankshaft can be destroyed.
WEB DEFLECTION is thus an indicator of the state of crankshaft alignment. Even a few mils variation is indicative of trouble. Manufacturers recommend checking this periodically, and re-aligning the shaft if the deflection is over a given limit.
Here is a drawing of a crankshaft, with the web labeled:

You have rod bearing caps that hold the rods on the crankshaft. And you also have main bearing caps that hold the crankshaft in the engine block. NEUTZ.
The Crankshaft Position Sensor senses it's position from a toothed timing ring behind the Crankshaft pulley. The CKP is above and to the left of the crankshaft pulley.
An automotive engine's camshaft rotates at A. the same speed as the crankshaft. B. one-quarter the speed of the crankshaft. C. one-half the speed of the crankshaft. D. twice the speed of the crankshaft.
Main bearings are between crankshaft and main journals (engine block), rod bearings are between connecting rods and crankshaft and thrust bearings ensure crankshaft does not slide horizantally between journals they hold crank in place.
Crankshaft deflection refers to the amount of bending or flexing that a crankshaft experiences during engine operation. Excessive deflection can lead to vibration, increased wear on engine components, and ultimately engine failure. It is essential to keep crankshaft deflection within specified limits to ensure engine performance and longevity.
due to running in excess of maximum continous rating...
Web deflection in a compressor refers to the bending or distortion of the compressor impeller blades due to the aerodynamic forces generated during operation. This deflection can impact the compressor efficiency and performance, leading to potential issues such as reduced airflow and pressure capabilities, as well as increased vibration levels. Monitoring and controlling web deflection is important to ensure optimal compressor operation and reliability.
Crankshaft used to transforms the linear motion of the pistons into a rotational motion that is transmitted to the load.Piston connected with crankshaft by connecting rod.Each units of the crankshaft supported by crank bearing(usually journal bearing) In multi-cylinder engine every units piston connected with crankshaft create rotational motion according to firing order.Crank shaft alignment is necessary for smooth engine operation.

The deflection of the ball caused it to change direction. The politician used deflection to redirect attention away from the controversial issue. The deflection of the light off the mirror created a dazzling effect in the room.
Electromagnetic deflection is used because it can create greater deflection angles of the electron beam compared to electrostatic deflection.
Yes. On a unintentional deflection...
