Companies involved with largescale reconditioning of dieselengine injectors will find benefits in the new six-spindle machine introduced for this purpose by Leslie Hartridge. Called the Injectomatic, it is claimed to save up to 90 per cent in labour cost and to recover as many as 25 per cent more nozzles than is normally possible with hand-lapping methods.
The lnjectomatic uses long-life self-centring honing stones instead of laps and paste and will reseat six nozzles at the same time. This eliminates time-wasting and the dangers of contamination of nozzle bores with lapping paste. The machine is controlled by two buttons, a timer and a lever and so requires relatively little skill to operate. Manufactured by: Leslie Hartridge Ltd., Buckingham.
