GRINDING OF CAPS WITH UNMACHINED SIDE FACES
Grinding caps with unmachined side faces is often a time-consuming and inaccurate operation, particularly on bearing caps. The CRG-100 is equipped with adjustable vertical supports that enable fast and reliable setup while maintaining accurate squareness to the main bearing bore during grinding operations.
ANGLE GRINDING
Conventional parallel grinding of connecting rod caps does not reduce the crosswise diameter. As a result, unmachined areas often remain after boring and grinding of the connecting rod big end. To eliminate these unmachined areas, the cap can be ground at a controlled angle. The resulting slight reduction in the crosswise diameter allows the cap and rod to close correctly when assembled and tightened to the specified bolt torque, ensuring complete machining of the bearing surfaces.
