Skimming Cast Iron Cylinder Heads


Sequence of operation:

Before beginning the process of surface grinding a cylinder head, check corrosion or cracks by visual inspection, using a pressure test machine or magnaflux machine.

· Tidy the workstation and check the accuracy of measuring instruments.
· Check warpage with straight edge and filler gauge.
· Measure thickness of head with a vernier caliper and determine if thickness is within manufacturers' specification.
· Remove dwells or any protruding attachments that are above the surface plane .
· Clean the base of the workpiece on the part that seats on the parallels.
· Secure the cylinder head on the parallels and machine bed with the surface to be ground level to the reciprocating axis of the surface grinder using a spirit level or DTI.
· Dress and true the segmented grinding wheel.
· Grind the surface until it is level and at the desired finish (Use sufficient soluble oil).
· Remove cylinder head from machine and clean head.
· Apply rust inhibitor to machined surface.
The End

Using a referral gives you a head start as the company has already been tried and tested, and it saves time ploughing through the many precision companies available.

Have you ever thought about publishing an e-book or guest authoring on other
blogs? I have a blog based upon on the same ideas you
discuss and would love to have you share some stories/information.

I know my audience would enjoy your work. If you're even remotely interested, feel free to shoot me an e mail.

I think what you posted was actually very reasonable.
However, consider this, suppose you added a little content?
I ain't suggesting your information isn't solid., however
what if you added a headline to maybe grab folk's attention? I mean "Skimming Cast Iron Cylinder Heads" is kinda boring. You should peek at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article headlines to
grab people interested. You might add a related video or a related picture or two to get
readers interested about what you've got to say. In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

Howdy! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.
If you have any suggestions, please share. Cheers!

Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to
no data backup. Do you have any methods to stop
hackers?
