Vibrogrooving provides an oil resevoir on the metal surface, while FriCSo’s polymer lapping adds an oil-retaining organic nano-layer, hardens the metal surface, and produces an extremely flat, smooth superfinished surface. FriCSo polymer lapping can be deployed in-line on the current honing machines.
• When FriCSo’s polymer lapping is applied, wear is significanlty reduced
• Rate of wear of rings reduced significantly
• Oil consumption reduced 50%
• Sealing, and consequently compression ratio, improved
• Engine performance improved
• Entire FriCSo surface treatment can be deployed on existing honing tools, without
increasing production time
