SURFACE INSPECTION OF PISTON RINGS

Our client is an innovative and diversified global supplier of quality products, trusted brands, and creative solutions to manufacturers of automotive, light commercial, heavy-duty and off-highway vehicles, as well as in power generation, aerospace, marine, rail, and industrial equipment. Piston rings keep up gas pressure between the cylinder and the chamber divider. Piston rings seal the chamber with the goal that burning gas created at the time of ignition doesn’t spill into the opening between the cylinder and the chamber.
