PISTON RING PRODUCTION
Ring in foundry shop The ring first produce in the foundry shop from the Melton
cast iron in the form 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 this 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 than leave for cool in
air.
4.Diskas machine
After heat treatment the ring sends to disckas machine ,in this machine the side face of the rings is get final finish upto axial height .8(-.01,.-.02)
5. Again the rings are washed in the solvent as the after first process
9
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 Rings 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 ring is not totally circular instead of it ,it is oval shape which is produce in cam turning machine where we produce the value of
Cam% :10
E-value :151.95
Tso-dia :53.63
D-150-dia :53.28
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)
10
In this process we work on the parameter of the rings 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 thisprocess the space width tolerance taken as +.1to-.1 and taper angle is 1deg55’ ,closegap is equally to (d+.2).
12.OD GAP EDGE CHAMFER
It is also used for save the work energy of piston during work. The edge of outer dia is chamfer. As given amount. It done if given in process card. Otherwise we can skip that process .
13.FINISH GAP GRINDING
For the proper function of ring it is very important to provide finish in the gap because I f gap is not finish and rough than the accuracy and efficiency of the engine can be reduce .it might be possible the ring not properly in the piston. Therefore for eliminate all this error we provide finish gap grinding.
14.ID GAP EDGE CHAMFERING
It is also like the OD chamfering and used for same function. It maximam amount is .2mm.and than send fir next process.
15.WASH IN SOLVENT
12
Once again the ring is wash in solvent for remove it dirt and dust then it dried by the high pressure air .
16.BELDERING (SIDE FACE)
When we create gap In the ring then there is an unwanted small edge appear which is know as burr. It increase friction and ring jam in the piston there for remove that we use beldering process. The burr occurs inside the ring therefore increase axial height .and we have to maintain axial height.
17.STRAIGHT HONING
The next step is the honing .during honing process the outer dia have to finish and it is equally to d+.00. and light thickness is 100%. This process done in vertical honing machine in which we fit the mandrel then start the machine during honing process oil emery paste is used.
18.FINAL SIDE FACE GRINDING
In final face grinding once more the side face have grind and find the required axial height. This process is done at last so that over come of undercut axial height problem.
19.WASH IN SOLVENT
20.DEMAGNETISE
At the last demagnetize process done on ring under 10gauss max. because after a number of process ring may be magnetize .so for remove that we use demagnetizing process.
21.CRI INSPECTION
At the end it send for CRI inspection where ring finalize for export.

SETUP TIME REDUCTION TECHNIQUES :
First step before changeover should be to brought all toolings to inspection table.
Operator should be properly experienced such that corrections done
again and again can be minimized.
Operator should be regulated in a way that same operator gets
setting for same model of piston each time.
Feed,Depth of cut should be entered highly accurately according to
dimension to min. errors.
Linebalancing should be proper and well organized such that piston is
found automatic for approval .
Separate staff for cleaning piston,machinery and transportation of
piston to line and standard room.
Refreshments such as tea, coffee may be provided for speeding up
operators.

CONCLUSION
I have done 6 weeks training in Shriram Piston and Rings Limited Ghaziabad,
with my experience I can say that this opportunity has proved a boon for me
and it have really helped me to understand industrial ethics and professional
work culture. Highly automatic environment of industry have really helped in
Understanding concept of CNC machines.
In first half, I have done my training in piston ring plant, where I understood the
Concept of piston ring manufacturing practically by cnc machines for different
type of pistons.
Later, I completed my training in piston plant in which I studied P.O.S.
(production operation sequence) for many piston models and I was also assigned
a project Elementary analysis of setup time on bottleneck operation & reduction
of same in piston plant .In the end of project, I suggest certain setup time
reduction techniques which were dully appreciated and practical problems in
incorporating these techniques were discussed.
Finally I can conclude that this training will be really helpful for me in developing
me as an engineer and explore my potential.
