BLOCK DIVISION

Flame Cutting of Components Steel plates of sizes up to 80 mm thickness are ultrasonically tested before being precision cut by numerically controlled flame cutting machines, Plasma Cutting Machine. Components are straightened and machined prior to fitting & tacking on fixture designed specially for engine block fabrication to ensure close tolerance on engine block. Fabrication of Engine Block/ Crankcase Components after flame cutting and various machining operations are fit and tack welded before taking on rollovers. Heavy Argon-CO 2 welding is done on these rollovers. High quality of welding is done by qualified welders. Weld joints are subjected to various tests like ultrasonic, X-rays, Visual etc. Down-hand welding designed positioners. is ensured using specially

Fabrication of engine block is completed by submerged arc welding using semi-automatic welding machines. Special fixtures are used for making down-hand welding possible in inaccessible areas. Critical welds are subjected to radiographic examination. All welders are periodically tested and re-qualified for the assigned.

After complete welding weldment is stress relieved and marking is done for subsequent machining.

Portal Milling Machine Engine block machining is done on Portal Milling Machine which is a 5 axis CNC machine with SIEMENs 840-D state of art system control with dedicated tool management system. This machine performs milling, drilling, tapping and boring operations in single setting. The machine accuracy of 10 enables adhering to the tolerance required on engine block. Angular Boring Machine Angular boring "V" boring is done of special purpose machine which is a special purpose machine, which has two high precision angular boring bars on which different boring inserts are mounted. The cutting inserts on boring bars to achieve evenly distributed cutting load during boring operation. This contributes to accuracy while machining.

Boring bars are mounted on high precision bearings which provide control on size during angular boring. The machine is capable of boring and drilling to different sizes.
