Ensure the precision and longevity of your automotive and industrial machinery with this comprehensive Flywheel Runout Test Equipment drawing. Flywheel runout is the measurement of how “true” the flywheel’s face and bore are as they rotate. Excessive runout, even a few thousandths of an inch, can lead to severe issues like clutch chatter, premature clutch wear, vibration, and even catastrophic component failure. This critical test is essential for mechanics, engine builders, and quality control professionals to ensure that the flywheel is mounted correctly and is within specified tolerances. This drawing provides a detailed blueprint for a specialized tool designed to accurately measure both axial (face) and radial (bore) runout.
The drawing set includes meticulously detailed plans for building a jig or fixture that mounts a dial indicator to the engine block or bell housing. This setup allows for precise measurement as the flywheel is rotated, giving you a clear and quantifiable result. By using this tool, you can diagnose existing problems, confirm the proper installation of a new or resurfaced flywheel, and prevent costly repairs down the line. It is an indispensable resource for anyone who values precision and wants to ensure the smooth and reliable operation of their machinery. This free download is the perfect opportunity to acquire the knowledge and plans necessary to construct your own professional-grade flywheel testing equipment.
