Cylinder Liner Honing Machine, pneumatic / HON S

Portable cylinder liner honing machine for on-site use

HON S is a portable cylinder liner honing machine, designed for easy operation directly on the engine or in a honing rig.

HON S – machine features

• For honing of liners 140 – 670 mm bore
• Easy to operate directly on the engine or in honing rig
• Honing rectifies the shape of the liner, restores scuffed areas and restores surface cross pattern
• Variable hoisting speed and exchangeable gearbox for optimal cross-angle pattern and honing capacity
• Fully pneumatically driven machine.
• Electric driving unit available on request
• Mechanically adjustable stone pressure for best accuracy
• Optional:8-armed honing heads available for special applications
• Automatic stroke control

HON S – new features

• Control handles on remote control box
  The control handles for driving speed and stone pressure have been moved from the honing machine to the same external control box where the reset and emergency buttons are situated. This makes HON S much easier and even safer to use.
• Chain slack detector (optional)
  The patented chain slack detector stops the machine if there is slack in the chain from the hoist. This can occur for instance if the stone pressure is too high, thus preventing the honing head from sliding down in the liner. Upgrade kit available for HON S users
• Torque wrench and adapter (optional)
  A kit that improves stone pressure accuracy has recently been introduced. The kit includes a torque wrench and an adapter that significantly reduce honing time and risk for human error.
• Vibration dampers
  Chris-Marine has recently introduced vibration dampers in order to minimize head wear, avoid vibration patterns in the cylinder liner and improve productivity.

Available for several engine makers such as Bergen, Caterpillar, MAN DIESEL, Wärtisilä, etc.
