Cylinder Head Surface Grinding  


Cylinder Head Surface Grinding

Cylinder heads and blocks are ground to within manufacturers' specified tolerances, using precision grinding equipment; alloy heads are re-ground with tungsten carbide tools. Other components, such as brake drums, discs and transmission assemblies can also be precision machined to manufacturers' specifications.

Cylinder Reboring  


Cylinder Reboring

Our specialist cylinder-reboring machine can save expensive replacement of engine blocks. The block is rebored to manufacturers' tolerances using out vertical-boring machine. Accuracy is paramount and each cylinder is checked with a cylinder bore gauge, and then transferred to the honing machine for final finishing.

Honing  


Honing

Our Vertical Beam Technology allows us to precision-hone cylinder bores to within manufacturers' sizes and tolerances. Each cylinder is then carefully examined for accuracy.

Crankshaft Grinding  


Crankshaft Grinding

Our workshop is also fully-equipped to grind a wide variety of crankshafts - including those from large commercial engines. All journals are precision-machined in order to conform to the manufacturer's specification; stroke and radii are also checked to ensure that they are within specification.

Valves  


Valves

All valve components are reground to manufacturers' specifications - subject, of course, to thorough checks for wear and tear. Particular attention is paid to valve stems, which are carefully checked with our specialist equipment. Where necessary, worn valve guides are replaced.

Subject to the extent of wear, damaged valve seats can be re-ground and conditioned. This is also the basic requirement to convert cylinder heads for use with unleaded fuel, which is now necessary.

Pressure Testing  


Pressure Testing

Once stripped down, engine components are subjected to pressures well in excess of normal operating limits and then thoroughly tested to conform to specified engine running temperatures. Using special jigs, we can examine each component in minute detail. Test results on each component are then documented.

Crack Detections  

 


Crack Detections

Our specialist Crack Detecting equipment can detect the finest crack through the use of ultra violet electro-magnetic particles. This ensures that even the most minute hairline crack is discovered.
