Engineering
At the Fliteline engine remanufacturing plant, extensive research goes into casting numbers, machining processes and tolerances, new part vendor selections and product applications. In addition, operators go through training that focuses on unique product features and processes. Potential problem areas may then be identified and corrected.
Disassembly
Each core is disassembled and inspected. Those components not suitable for further processing are scrapped. All small parts are cleaned and critical tolerances are checked. Worn parts are scrapped and replaced. All major components (crankcases, cylinder heads) are baked in gas-fired ovens to carbonize grease and dirt. Other components are chemically cleaned. Components then go through an abrasive blaster that removes all contaminants. Crankcases and cylinder heads are all magnafluxed to check for any cracks not found during visual inspections. Each component then moves to its respective matching area.
