Honing Options for Hypereutectic Aluminum Cylinder Bores
|
|
Since gasoline burned and forced a piston down a cylinder for the first time, aluminum has been the metal of choice when light weight was the most critical requirement for an internal combustion engine. This is as true today as it was in 1902 when the Wright Brothers were unable to purchase a suitable commercial engine for their experimental airplane and built their own, casting the aluminum block. |

Honing pays big for hydraulic valve leader HydraForce
|
|
Lincolnshire, IL - HydraForce, Inc., President and CEO Jim Brizzolara credits lessons learned on a Sunnen hone at his first job in 1966 in a hydraulic valve factory with helping him understand how precision bore finish and geometry can fine-tune the performance of a valve. Fast-forward to 2007, and Brizzolara has used that knowledge to help build the company he co-founded in 1985 into the world's leading supplier of cartridge valves and integrated circuit manifolds. With sales doubling in the last three years, HydraForce produces more than 7 million cartridge valves per year, releasing a new design to production almost every day. |
