Coolant and Oil Cavity Leak Testing
Overview:
Leak testing of the oil cavity and coolant cavity of engines is critical but is traditionally a lengthy process, often causing serious bottleneck issues for engine manufacturers. In order to process required production quantities these manufacturers have typically absorbed the cost of multiple leak test stations. With Sciemetric's advanced 3310 Leak Test system, engine manufacturers can decrease their engine leak test cycle time or substantially reduce the number of test stations they require.
Benefits:
- Reduced leak test cycle time
- Improved engine quality with reliable and repeatable results
- Cost savings
- Improved productivity
Challenge:
A manufacturer of large diesel engines faced a challenge meeting increasing throughput requirements. The manufacturer experienced a large bottleneck at their leak test station due to lengthy cycle times. In order to accommodate their increasing volume, the manufacturer needed to either invest in additional test stations or improve the throughput of their existing leak test method. The proposed solution could not sacrifice quality verification for improved cycle time.
