Abstract:
A method for remanufacturing an engine block is provided. The engine block includes a damaged area on an inner surface of a cylinder. The method includes removing a first liner from the cylinder. The first liner includes a first inner diameter defined by a first inner surface and a first outer diameter defined by a first outer surface. The method includes removing material from the damaged area on the inner surface of the cylinder. The method also includes providing a machined surface on the inner surface of the cylinder. The machined surface defining a machined diameter. The method further includes inserting a second liner into the cylinder. The second liner includes a second inner diameter defined by a second inner surface and a second outer diameter defined by a second outer surface. The second outer diameter is equal to the machined diameter.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is related to a component. The component may include a cast iron base and an intermediate layer covering a least a portion of the cast iron base. The intermediate layer may include aluminum and at least one of nickel, cobalt, chromium, silicon, or iron. The component may also include an outer layer covering the intermediate layer. The outer layer may include steel.
Abstract:
An exhaust system component is disclosed. The exhaust system component may have a tubular body that defines a passage. The tubular body may have a joining portion that is configured to fluidly connect the passage to another exhaust system component. The joining portion may have a first layer of cast iron. The joining portion may also have a second layer covering at least a portion of the first layer. The second layer may contain at least iron, chromium, and aluminum.
Abstract:
Method of remanufacturing a component comprising: removing a damaged area of a cast iron component, the remaining component constituting a cast iron base; depositing molten particles on the cast iron base to form a pool of agglomerated molten particles, wherein the pool comprises aluminum and at least one of nickel, cobalt, chromium, silicon, or iron; cooling the pool to form a solid intermediate layer; and depositing solid particles on the solid intermediate layer to form an outer layer, wherein the solid particles comprise steel. Additionally, a component comprising: a cast iron base; an intermediate layer covering at least a portion of the cast iron base, wherein the intermediate layer comprises aluminum and at least one of nickel, cobalt, chromium, silicon, or iron; and an outer layer covering the intermediate layer, wherein the outer layer comprises steel.
