The problems that the smallest residual dirt particles can cause were recently experienced by a German car manufacturer: It had to recall numerous vehicles due to malfunctions in the engine. The reason was manufacturing residues consisting of hard particles that lead to capital engine damage \u2013 in the worst case to burning cars.<\/p>

Hard residual dirt particles usually originate from the fine machining of surfaces by glass blasting, vibratory grinding, honing or barrel finishing. These steps are intended to specifically refine components and improve dimensional and shape accuracy. The particles remain on the surface as production residues if they are not adequately cleaned.<\/p>

Hard particles have an extremely abrasive effect, i.e. they break down other materials, damaging functional layers and surfaces. In addition, hard residual dirt particles can get into the sliding surfaces of bearings and raceways, jamming them and thereby lead to the complete destruction of an engine.<\/p>

Our team was able to assist the manufacturer by providing the hardness and origin of the production residues of various individual parts of the affected engines with an automatic\u00a0SEM-EDX microscope of FEI-Aspex brand<\/a>\u00a0investigated (see figure). Hard residual dirt particles such as corundum and silicon carbides with a Moh\u2019s hardness > 8 were determined in the crankshaft, connecting rod and cylinder head. For comparison: diamond has a Moh\u2019s hardness of 10.<\/p>

Welche Probleme kleinste Restschmutzpartikel anrichten k\u00f6nnen, hat vor Kurzem ein deutscher Automobilhersteller erfahren: Er musste zahlreiche Fahrzeuge wegen Fehlfunktionen im Motor zur\u00fcckrufen. Grund waren Fertigungsr\u00fcckst\u00e4nde bestehend aus harten Partikeln, die zu einem kapitalen Motorschaden f\u00fchren \u2013 im schlimmsten Fall zu brennenden Autos. Harte Restschmutzpartikel stammen meist aus der Feinbearbeitung von Oberfl\u00e4chen durch Glasstrahlen, Gleitschleifen, Honen [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2007,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,11],"tags":[69,14,22,68,37,38,39,43,44,45,49,50],"class_list":["post-1372","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-innovative-analytik","category-analyse-technische-sauberkeit","tag-analysen-mit-akkreditierung","tag-bauteilsauberkeit","tag-iso-16232","tag-prueflabor","tag-rasterelektronenmikroskopie","tag-restschmutz","tag-restschmutzanalyse","tag-sauberkeitsanalyse","tag-sauberkeitspruefung","tag-sem-edx","tag-technische-sauberkeit","tag-vda-19"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1372","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1372"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1372\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10360,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1372\/revisions\/10360"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1372"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1372"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rjl-microanalytic.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1372"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
