Polished Surfaces
The photomicrograph on the left shows a standard EDM finish nozzle. The photo on the right shows the same nozzle hole after Extrude Hone MicroFlow AFM processing. Note the smooth radius and even surface finish.
Improved efficiency and fuel economy with MicroFlow™ processing
Nozzle spray orifices are processed to reduce flow variability from nozzle to nozzle and to precisely target a specific flow rate. The result, lower emissions and better fuel economy.
Performance Example:
Cummins 5.9 ('05-'06)
45% Increased Flow Rate = 60-80 Horsepower Gain†
Just ask Jeff Garmon the current holder of the record for modified diesel powered pickup's!
Extrude Hone recommends an experienced and certified diesel technician install all MicroFlow processed nozzles and a complete engine tune-up be performed following installation of processed components.
More Power - Increase Air Flow
Another method of increasing diesel engine power is the use of Extrude Hone’s Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) process to smooth and increase the size of internal passageways of intake and exhaust manifolds, and exhaust header systems.
The Abrasive Flow Machining process creates obstruction free passage ways that allow air, fuel, and gasses to pass more quickly through the engine components to maximize flow velocity. The result is an engine that produces a faster, cleaner burn and more power output. The process routinely delivers increases that can exceed 30 percent on aluminum intake manifolds and 25 percent on cylinder heads not to mention a cleaner burning, more fuel-efficient engine.
The combination of Extrude Hone AFM processing of diesel injector nozzles, intake & exhaust manifolds and heads provides a significant opportunity to increase engine output at minimal cost.
