Abstract
Honing is an abrasive machining process which removes material and improves bore geometry and surface finish. Honing can correct most common bore errors with the least amount of stock removal. The actual honing operation can be relatively easy, with the proper selection of tooling and equipment. The quality of the honing texture on cylinder bores of combustion engines plays an important role with respect to the oil consumption, noxious emissions, and running performance. A discussion on the how of honing indirectly answers both the why and the when of honing. While the objective of this project is to design a portable honing machine that can adjusted for different cylinders strokes and bores.

As illustrated here (figure 1), there are ten common bore errors associated with machining, heat treating or chucking. Honing can correct all these conditions, and can do so with the least possible amount of material removal.
12
Most other machining processes, such as grinding and boring, are abusive to the material being machined and may fracture the crystals of metal to a depth of about 0.002 of an inch. (0.05mm) as illustrated (figure 2) in this sectional view of an automotive cylinder. Honing, on the other hand, is quite gentle to the material being worked. This is why a bored engine cylinder is honed, not only to establish good dimensional accuracy (diameter, straightness and roundness), but also to provide a sound base metal surface, as illustrated in this sectional view of an automotive cylinder (figure 3).
13
Honing applies three forces to the part being honed, as is illustrated here (figure 4). Stone expansion forces abrasive against the wall of the part. Rotation of the honing tool (or part) combined with strolling, removes material and creates the characteristic crosshatch pattern. Honing also can remove errors caused by less accurate machining processes, because honing requires no chucking or alignment, it incorporates a rigid honing tool. It controls the angle and area of abrasive contact and it is indifferent to bore length.
14
No alignment is required. The part floats and aligns itself automatically on the expanding tool. For heavy parts the tool may be equipped with two universal joints (figure 5) and then the tool floats and the part locked in place. The advantages of this type of tool is that it does not depend on bearings or supports outside the bore being honed. The tool supports itself inside the very bore it is honing and is no affected by the quality or the age of the machine or its bearings. A rigid honing tool greatly reduces the possibility of out-of-round, bell mouth, waviness, or barrel-shaped bores. The angle of contact of the honing tool is very important. Honing tools have stones and guides arranged at precise angles to fight chatter and out-of-roundness.
15
Large area of abrasive contact. Unlike the point contact of grinding wheel, honing tools have long abrasive sticks in contact with the bore, which helps to removes waviness, taper, rainbow, and misalignment. Indifferent to bore length. In terms of length-to-diameter, the length of the bore to be honed is practically unlimited.
16
Multiple-point honing tool (figure 6) are used for large bores. In large diameter parts it is more practical to use a tool that has multiple contact points in order to provide faster stock removal.

Honing is a controlled, low-speed forming process and usually applied for finishing inside the cylindrical surfaces. As shown in Fig.7, a simultaneous rotating and reciprocating action of the stone results in a characteristic cross hatch groove pattern which is required for the inner cylinder.
The correct angle for cross hatch lines to intersect is approximately 45 degrees. Too steep an angle promotes oil migration down the cylinder resulting in a thin oil film which can cause ring and cylinder scuffling. Too flat a cross hatch angle can hold excess oil which conversely causes thicker oil films which the piston rings will ride up on or hydroplane. Excessive oil consumption will result.

Where: : Average crosshatch angle. S: SPM (Strokes per minute). R: RPM (Revolutions per minute). L: Cylinder length. D: Part diameter.
Our objective is to get 45 degree crosshatch angle. Using equation (eq.3) and substituting = 45 to get the strokes per minute needed from the reciprocating motion which will lead to the slider crank mechanism design.
22
Stroke rate. A characteristic feature of a honed surface is the crosshatch pattern which is seen in figure 7. The pattern is generated on the bore surface as the part is stroked back and forth over the rotating honing tool. The faster the stroking rate (SPM) in relation to the tool rotation (RPM), the larger the crosshatch angle. Limitation in the stroke speed capability of the honing machine will make it highly unlikely that the crosshatch angle will be too large. Exact crosshatch angles can be calculated by controlling the ration of spindle speed to stroke rate using the formula shown above (eq.3).

From the above calculation, in order to have 45 degree crosshatch angle, the ratio between peripheral speed (rotational) to axial speed ( ) = 2.4
Which means that the rotational speed must be 2.4 times the axial speed

Cylinder bore refinishing is extremely important in the engine rebuild process. There are some basic rules and facts that will prevent common problems incurred when deglazing or refinishing cylinders.
1. Will make stones act softer. 2. Will give rougher surface finishes. 3. Will increase a stone's ability to stay sharp and not glaze. 4. Will decrease noise level. 5. Will increase crosshatch angle. 6. Will remove stock slower if speed is too excessive.

26
Altering the direction of the stroke results in a crossing over of the machining marks which in turn produces the typical cross-hatch pattern with crosshatch angle ().
The honed cylinder bore cross hatch angle determines ring rotation speed and its ability to promote proper oil migration up and down the cylinder wall. Most general application blocks use a 45 (included) angle which is measured as half of that from a horizontal surface.

Dimension in equation (eq.7) are in millimeters. Stock removal rates. The formulas shown above (eq.6 and eq.7) can be used to estimate the amount of time in minutes it will require to remove a given amount of stock.

the stone surface. Therefore, when there is stone loading, there will be metal-tometal contact and welding; with the same undesirable results as when using a honing tool with metal guide shoes. Simply stated, always use an oil which was properly blended for honing. Years of research, blending, testing, re-blending and evaluating have gone into the development of quality honing oils.

3.1 Objective
The objective is to design a slider crank mechanism to be used for translation motion in the honing machine and achieve the specifications.
31
(eq. 8)
3(3 1) (2)(2) 1 = 1 Which is one degree of freedom as it represents the translation motion of the slider crank mechanism.
32
In order to achieve time ratio equals to 1, the slider crank mechanism will have no offset ( = 0). In other words, it is in-line slider crank mechanism.

For in-line slider crank mechanism = 2 Link dimension limitations. Connecting rod (L) must be greater than crank link (r) + offset (E), but as in our design offset is zero, so for best design 2 For our design connecting rod (L) will be equal to 3.4 times crank link (r) = 3.4
35
Transmission angle. One of the important design specification is the transmission angle which is the angle between slider and connecting rod. The transmission angle is an important parameter for the quality of motion transmission in a mechanism. The transmission angle measures how effectively force is transmitted to the output link.
From figure 18, the transmission angle is maximum when the crank angle = 90 and it is minimum when crank angle = 270. 1 = 90 = sin1 ( ) = sin1 ( ) = sin1 ( ) = 17 3.4 3.4
(eq. 12)

From equations 12 and 13, the range of transmission angle 17 17 . Which is good range and it meets the design specifications.

38
First of all, to meet the first design specification which is having transmission angle within the range of 45 45, we started designing slider crank mechanism using two Matlab codes (see appendix C) First code Slider Crank Design Code is for obtaining the length of the connecting rod (L) that satisfies the transmission angle range by solving the displacement and velocity equations for different values of L.
Figure 21: Transmission angle for different values of connecting rod length.
From figure (21), as the connecting rod length increase, the transmission angle decreases until it fits within the range. For the design limitation, we chose connecting rod length L = 58 [mm.] with corresponding Transmission angle 17 17 .
39
The next step is to check the length of connecting rod L = 58 [mm] if it meet the second design specifications which is the time ratio. For the given value of L, check if the value of time ratio is equal to 1.This is done by the second Matlab code Slider Crank Analysis (see appendix C) and the values of the time ratio was = 0.9945 which is close enough to 1. Figure (22) shows that for the given connecting rod length, the transmission angle has maximum value of = 17 degree at crank angle = 90, and minimum value of = 17 degree at crank angle = 270
40
Figure (23) shows the position of the slider for given crank angle. The maximum displacement is 75 [mm] at crank angle = 0 . While the minimum displacement is 41 [mm] at crank angle = 180 . And the stroke equals to the difference between maximum and minimum displacement which equals to 34 [mm.]
41
The crank is rotating with constant angular velocity while the translating motion of the slider is not constant. As shown in figure (24), the slider velocity is zero at maximum position ( = 0 ) then it increase in negative which means the slider is in backward motion. After that, velocity starts decreasing in negative until it reaches zero again at minimum position ( = 180 .). Then the slider starts forward motion. Average backward velocity = 67.6226 [] Average forward velocity = 67.9983[]

Figure (25) shows that angular velocity of connecting rod for given crank angle. The angular velocity reaches zero when transmission angle reaches maximum value at crank angle = 90 and minimum value at crank angle = 270 .

Regarding the bearings, both of the bearings are of the same size and have a bore diameter of 12mm and an outside diameter of 32 mm, the required life is 90*106 revolutions with 90% reliability. The bearing rated capacity, C for the previous specifications is 1.42 KN. The life of the bearing is calculated using the following formula: = ( Where: L is the life corresponding to the equivalent load. Kr is the life adjustment reliability factor. LR is the required life. C is bearing rated capacity. Fe is the equivalent load. Ka is the application factor.
