Engine assembly in the automotive industry is the process of assembling various engine components into a single unit to ensure it functions perfectly. This stage includes the installation of main parts such as the engine block, pistons, crankshaft, camshaft, and cylinder head, as well as additional components like the fuel system, lubrication system, and cooling system.

This process requires high precision to ensure all parts are correctly installed and operate according to specified standards. The use of appropriate technology and lubricants is crucial at this stage to produce a reliable engine.

Various engine assembly problems and comprehensive solutions from Eonchemicals include:

1. Piston Problem: Anti-Friction Coating

A common issue related to AFC (anti-friction coating) on pistons during engine assembly in the automotive industry is when the coating can no longer maintain its performance.

This can occur because the AFC cannot withstand the high pressure and heat during the engine’s combustion cycle. The impact includes reduced fuel efficiency, excessive wear on the pistons and internal engine environment, and the potential for more serious damage to engine components.

Solution: Molykote PA 744 (Gasoline), Molykote D10 (Diesel)

Molykote PA 744 (for gasoline engines) and Molykote D10 (for diesel engines) are the right solutions to address anti-friction coating (AFC) issues on pistons because both are designed to form anti-friction coatings capable of withstanding high pressure and heat during the engine’s combustion cycle.

Molykote PA 744 and D10 have special formulations that ensure thermal stability and high mechanical strength, preventing excessive wear on the pistons and internal engine environment. By effectively reducing friction, these products help improve fuel efficiency and reduce the potential for damage to engine components, ensuring more reliable and durable engine performance.

2. Belt Conveyor Problem: Uncontrolled Grease Consumption

Uncontrolled grease consumption on belt conveyors can be caused by a lack of monitoring of the required grease amount. This problem can lead to increased operational costs due to excessive grease usage, as well as potential issues such as workplace contamination from excessive grease spillage.

Solution: Autolube, Molykote BR2 Plus

Autolube is an automatic lubrication system that regulates the amount of grease applied precisely and consistently, reducing the risk of overuse and ensuring each part receives the necessary lubrication without wastage.

Molykote BR2 Plus, on the other hand, is a high-performance grease with good durability and strong adhesion properties, reducing the frequency of reapplication. With the combination of Autolube and Molykote BR2 Plus, grease consumption can be well-controlled, lowering operational costs and minimizing the potential for workplace contamination from excessive grease spillage.

Eonchemicals is the master distributor of Molykote in Indonesia and has developed its Autolube system. Please chat with us on WhatsApp for more information.

3. Radiator Problem: Low Lifetime

This problem is caused by the use of inappropriate and low-quality radiator coolant. The impact of this issue includes the risk of engine overheating, which can result in serious damage to other engine components and unexpected repair and replacement costs for the radiator.

The solution to extend the lifetime of a radiator is to maintain and use the right type of high quality radiator coolant..

Solution: GreenCool 488 (Waterbase Coolant)

This solution product is designed with a formula that provides optimal protection against corrosion, scaling, and deposits that can damage the radiator. By using GreenCool 488, the radiator can operate at maximum efficiency, preventing engine overheating that can cause serious damage to other engine components.

Additionally, GreenCool 488 has high durability and good thermal stability, ensuring a longer radiator lifespan and reducing the frequency of unexpected repairs and replacements. Thus, using GreenCool 488 can save operational costs and improve the reliability of the engine cooling system.
