pistons for Maruti-800, Esteem, Zen etc. Other customers include Peugeot, Escorts Division-
Faridabad, Bajaj, Hindustan Motors, TVS, Rajdoot and many others. The company also directly
supplies its products to all the authorized dealers of the spare part for the above companies
throughout INDIA.
From 1st October, 1996, ESCORTS LIMITED entered into joint venture with M/S MAHLE
GmbH, GERMANY with the formation of new company, ESCORTS MAHLE LIMITED. In 1998,
GOETZE also became the part of FEDERAL MOUGAL, a well known group of U.S.A.

2. OVERVIEW OF PISTON
15
Piston is a disk or cylindrical part tightly fitting and moving within a cylinder, either to compress
or move a fluid collected in the cylinder, as air or water, or to transform energy imparted by a fluid
entering or expanding inside the cylinder, as compressed air, explosive gases, or steam, into a
rectilinear motion usually transformed into rotary motion by means of a connecting rod .
16
Ease of machining.
Low melting point that is 660C as compared to cast iron 1440C therefore problem of
melting and pouring are greatly simplified.
The coefficient of thermal conductivity of aluminum is about three times that of cast iron.
As regards strength and wearing quality aluminum is better.
2.5.1 Design: The architecture of a piston must have a design with least weight, less friction, less
noise, vibration and harshness, less skirt collapse
2.5.2 Material: The aluminum alloys is used as material because it provides a high performance at
low cost.
2.5.3 Process: A finished cast crown is used and skirt thickness is considered to have optimized
weight.
2.5.4 Surface: The coating should be such that it should provide less wear, less friction, less NVH
and least scuffing.
18
2.6.1 Land
That part of the piston above the top ring or between ring grooves. The lands confine and support
the piston rings in their grooves.
19
A bushing fitted between piston pin and piston pinhole to obtain a better bearing material. Used
particularly with iron pistons.
2.7.4 Weight
In case of multi-cylinder engines the pistons are assembled according to weight as it has a lot of
impact inside a running engine.
The weight of the pistons are kept in the range of 2 grams because if there is too much variation
in the weights of the pistons inside a running engine than the pistons may exert an unbalancing
force on the crankshaft which may bend the crankshaft.
21
If the diameter of the pin hole is more than the pin will be loose, which will allow fluttering of the
pin causing damage to the boss.
Whereas, if the pin hole is tight than the pin will not pass through the hole.
2.7.14 Cavity
Cavity is another parameter of piston as according to drawing. The main function of the cavity is
to properly burn the mixture of air and fuel because if the fuel drops at the centre of the cavity then
the force is exerted mainly on the piston.
Whereas, if the fuel is distributed equally inside the chamber than the force is exerted equally in all
the directions and only a part of the force is exerted on the piston which produces lesser power.
22
2.7.15 Circlip Groove
Circlip groove is a groove in the pin hole which is provided for the locking of the pin. If the groove
is not correctly made than the pin will not stay at its place and connecting rod may move out of the
assembly and seize the engine.
2.7.16 Cracks
These refer to the cracks which are present on the piston surface.
2.7.18 Roughness
The roughness which is provided on the piston surface helps in retaining the oil film
2.7.21 Concentricity
If the chamfer of the skirt is not concentric, the piston will move in a tilted position in the engine
which may result in eroding of the cylinder lining.
23
3. PROCESS FLOW
3.1 Casting
The molten aluminum alloy is poured with the help of a spatula manually into the runner. Each
worker had 2 machines with split dies which would make 2 pistons at a time as in figure 3.1.
3.2 Machining
In this process the blank piece obtained from foundary is made according to needed dimensions by
removing extra material that is present on the piece during casting process.
24
3.3 Surface Treatment
In this process the final product obtained after machining process is the sent for surface treatment
these processes are are used to provide extra life to the pistons. There are different types of surface
treatments are done on pistons . In this process a coating is provided on the outer surface of piston
which works as self lubricant.Coating is basically defined as a covering that is applied to the
surface of an object, usually referred to as the substrate. In many cases coatings are applied to
improve surface properties of the substrate, such as appearance, adhesion, wet ability, corrosion
resistance, wear resistance, and scratch resistance. Coatings may be applied as liquids, gases or
solids. In industry we studied about various coatings like graphite coating, tin coating, molycoat
and anodizing.
And for this process various methods are used:
3.3.4 Anodizing
Anodizing is an electrolytic passivation process used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide
layer on the surface of metal parts. The process is called "anodizing" because the part to be treated
forms the anode electrode of an electrical circuit.
3.4 Inspection
In this after all the processes including surface treatment the pistons are sent for final inspection
where all the parameters are checked by electronic devices and are checked to very minute level.
In inspection the machining of piston blanks, acidic tin coating, Moly coating, screening, final
inspection, and packing of pistons to be done. Piston blanks from Foundry shop are brought at
PMS in trolleys with identification tags on them. There is provision for the 13lines in the shop.
Each line includes different machines and every operation from rough machining to finishing of
the piston is done within theline. After this piston goes to Washing & Coating section and then
come to the final inspection section. In final inspection piston parameters, critical thickness are
being checked by equipments & after inspection Pistons after packing are ready.
After carrying out the various processes final inspection is done in order to check any kind of error.
During the final inspection following points are taken care of:
25
a.) Sound check: Piston being used is first made to do sound check so that it does not produce
any kind of noise while working.
b.) Eye visual: Manual check is done in order to detect any defect.
c.) Pin testing: Pin testing is done to check the fitting of the pin in bore .
d.) Pin hole/ compression height check: Pin hole or compression height is checked with the
help of gauge.
e.) Middle point/ angel: Middle point or angle at which the piston is to be installed is checked
with the help of gauge to check its accuracy.
f.) Pin hole dia and outer dia: These are checked by using circular gauge.
g.) Groove check: In groove check groove dia, groove depth and groove width are checked.
h.) Lock pin depth: Lock pin depth is checked when the ring is not rotating.
i.) Grading: Grading is done in order to rank the equipment quality or standard of work done.
j.) Stamping: Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes,
such as punching,grooving etc.It is a process in which we code the piston according to thire
defects .For machining defects,coding is done in accordance with the standard codes.
3.5 Packaging
The final product obtained after all the machining processes and inspection is then packed in the
packing room and then sent to the customers.
