@shooter7aАй бұрын
Very good video. Lots of good pointers.... I personally like to use a low speed drill motor (using one of those Goodson honing tanks) and do it by hand so I can FEEL the torque and cutting action in my hands. I find that this gives great tactile feedback. You can literally feel when a bore is barreled or bell-mouthed in your grip. But I mainly work on much smaller bored (46-52mm kart racing motors). I have always been personally able to get better results by hand than on a horizontal rigid mandrel machine like an MBB...where you lose that hand feel. Have you compared the profile results from brushes vs using a really fine stone, like 500-600 grit? Also, how often do you use truing sleeves to maintain the stones? Nice work....
@EricksonMachinePerformanceАй бұрын
@shooter7a my hone is not a power feed. I hand feed it, but the arm is counterbalanced. I used to use a drill that worked well, but it's way faster and easier to hone cylinders when you can set a bottom and top stop in the stroke. Both will do the job well. It depends on home many cylinders you do a day.
@EricksonMachinePerformanceАй бұрын
@shooter7a truing sleeves are more of a rod hone thing. Main thing is to flip your stones. It's all a learning curve. First your learn to make things round. Then you learn to make ur equipment last. As to the brushes and stones. They are used for different reasons. We have tested the finishes of all our processes. The brushes are used as a final set to help clean the iron out of the crosshatch
@EricksonMachinePerformanceАй бұрын
@shooter7a lastly. Using a rod hone on smaller stuff is common. You can get a great finish with them, BUT it's a much more dangerous operation. Alot of people get messed up doing it that way. ( unfortunately I've seen the aftermath a few times over the years with friends in the industry) holding a cylinders while honing can get someone hurt. It's a much better practice to have the cylinder mounted and have the honing head move instead

Sunnen make two stroke hone stone/guide sets. I used to teach it at MMI (2000-2011.6) It's relatively easy to get 0.0001" tolerance round and parallel even with the drill motor version of Sunnen (in fact, I find it easier as you can feel the slightest torque variation if there is a 'tight' spot) You do need a good low speed drill though , I think 450 rpm is max on a 2.5"~55mm bore IIRC?

What surface roughness is the best for 2 stroke single ring piston geometries? What do you use to measure the surface roughness? Have you ever honed smaller RC engines like say an OS MAX .60 or 10 cc engine? The cylinder liners are apparently tapered toward the top for better sealing. Does this work on 250 cc sized engines? It looks like you spin a wheel on the hone shaft to vary the size of the hone diameter. When it squeaked, you tweaked it a bit. If you tighten this too much, will it cut/grind/hone faster? If so, how tight to set it?

I seen you checking the cylinder to make sure it wasn't egg shaping. I have experienced this before when honing. What do you do to correct this if it does start to egg shape? Alao, what's your most common grit finishing stone, 220 or 280?
@EricksonMachinePerformance Жыл бұрын
Finish has do do with rings used. That's not a simple answer. It can vary on what the intended use is. As to egg shape it happens from time to time. Could be varying sleev hardness uneven wear, ect. Then there is also hour glass and barrel shaped which requires dwelling in spots of the bore or increasing or decreasing pressure on the stones.
