INTRODUCTION

PISTON RING:- A PISTON RING is a split ring that fits into a groove on the
outer diameter of a piston in a reciprocating engine such as an internal
combustion engine or steam engine.

FUNCTION OF PISTON RING:-The three main function of piston ring
in reciprocating engines are:
1: Sealing the combustion chamber so that there is no transfer of gases from the
combustion chamber to the crank.
2: Supporting heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall.
3: Regulating engine oil consumption.
The gap in the piston ring compreses to a few thousandths of an inch when inside
the cylinder bore.

RING NOMENCLATURE:-There are two nomenclature of piston
ring:

1:- RING NOMENCLATURE(COMPRESSOR RING)


2:-RING NOMENCLATURE(OIL RING)





PISTON RING CLASSIFICATION

RING PROCESS SEQUENCE:-Ring in foundry shop the ring first
produce in the foundary shop from the melton cast iron in the from of rough
ring.which dia and finish is very far from the actual ring.

1.SEMI FINISH SIDE FACE GRINDING
When the ring comes in the ring plant the first process which does on the ring
is semi finish side face grinding in the process in grinding machine the face of
the ring is ground upto axial height 0.83(+.015,-.015)
2.WASH IN SOLVENT
After grinding of ring, ring is washed in solvent , for the remove rust and dirt.
3.HEAT TREATMENT PROCESS
This is the process which follow after second step.this is very important process
because in this process we change the molecular structure of the rings and
improve the needed quality of the ring such as reduce the brittleness and increase
strength also in heat treatment process the ring become totally flate due to heat.
This process held on 530 centigate temperature half hour and then leave for cool
in air.
4.FINISH SIDE FACE GRINDING
After heat treatment the ring sends to disckas machine ,in this machine the side
face of the ring is get final finish upto axial height.8(-.01,-.2)
5.WASH SOLVENT
Again the rings are washed in the solvent as the after first process
6.DEMAGNETISETION
When the rings passed through the grinding machine due to friction it get
magnetic properties due to which rust and dirt of the iron are stuck of its
surface.which creates problem,like destroy the finish of surface . therefore its is
necessary to remove this properties.so for remove this process the ring are held
on demagnetize machine for few minutes under which counter magnetic force
apply on its and remove magnetize properties.
7.CAM TURNING
The shape of the ring in not totally circular instead of it is oval shape which is
produce in cam turning machine where we produce the value of
Cam% :14
E-Value :67.54
T-So-Dia :94.32
D-150-Dia :93.97
Its is the most important process of the ring making because the next step
depend on it ,if the ovality on the ring not produce then it will not suitable for
piston.
8.GAP CUTTING
In this process the ring cut from the one side ,which is known as gap. The gap is
cut in the ring for make it flexible ,because when the ring is fit in the piston and
piston move the due to flexibility it make contact with linear. And the close gap
cut is equal to D+.05(+.1,-.1)



9.WASH IN SOLVENT
10.Demagnetization upto 15 gauss max
11.TAPER TURNING




In this process we work on the parameter of the ring like tool pitch,spacer
width,taper angle, radial thickness and closed gap. This is done on the CNC
machine and an important process because it reduce the surface of contact b/w
the ring and linear due to which the friction recdue.and save the work energy.
Mostly in this process the space width tolerance as +.1 to -.1 and taper angle is
1deg55, closegap is equally to (d+.2).
