A new generation of CNC honing technology is changing the image of a messy, manual secondary process and taking on a primary role for makers of small engines (less than 50 hp), gears and fluid power ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 23, PARTS I and II (1928), pp. 460-466 (7 pages) CYLINDER finishing by rough and finish-boring with wide tools, which was thought good enough during the first dozen years of the ...

Due to the slim dimensions of LH honing spindles, even multi-stage machines like the Kadia T Line are compact units. Every micrometer counts when it comes to honing of high-precision components, such ...

With higher performance required from turbochargers, steering knuckles, gears, fuel systems and valves, honing is being used more widely. It can make an already “good” bore into one that is round and ...

Narrator: I know what you're thinking. No, this is not one of those viral slime videos. You're looking at a process called extrude honing. But what exactly is it? Gary Kubo: Extrude honing is a ...

More specifically, cast and machined bores in a cylinder block are subjected to thermal and load distribution that add complexity to the goal of maintaining concentric bores in a running and highly ...

There are countless reasons for rebuilding an engine, and countless more directions to take the build once you’ve started, but for us the reasoning was simple. In short, our little small-block 302 was ...

This month, we are going to take a look at all the "stuff" that goes into preparing a block before the first part gets bolted to it. From cleaning, to boring the cylinders, to freeze plugs: What's ...
