Engine Parts
1. Bed Plate:
The bed plate provides the rigid seating of the crankshaft,
which is absolutely essential for satisfactory engine
operation. The bed plate is constructed of a deep
longitudinal girder (running along the length of engine)
and transverse girder or cross girder (running across the
engine). The transverse and longitudinal girders are
joined together by welding.
They are made up of:

5. Cylinder Parts:
Cylinder Liner:
Material: Pearlitic Grey Cast Iron
Properties of Cylinder Liner Material:
1. Material for liners must provide adequate strength and
fatigue life.
2. Resist abrasion and corrosion and must readily transfer
heat.
3. Be able to retain a film of lubricating oil on working
surfaces.
4. Have a rate of thermal expansion compatible with
adjacent parts.
To meet these requirements, liners are cast in
pearlitic grey cast irons to which alloying elements such
as vanadium and titanium are added to enhance
strength, wear, and corrosion resistance. Chrome plated
liners have extended life, but the initial cost is higher.
Chrome plated piston ring must not be used with
chromium plated liners.
Cylinder cover:
Material: Pearlitic or Nodular Graphite cast Iron / Cast
Steel.
Properties:
5. Must be of sufficient strength to withstand the gas load
at maximum pressure.
