Overview
The H85AX hones a complete line of cylinders - automatically! Hone a complete V block unattended with optional auto-rotate V fixture. Automatic lower crash protection safeguards stones and holders from unexpected - and expensive - damage, keeping jobs on time and on budget. The automatic load control gives perfectly round and straight cylinders, and automatic CNC control finishes very cylinder to the same size. Because the H85X accepts both diamond and CBN abrasives, shops get the perfect surface finish no matter the block construction.

Features
Special Version Production Machine that can move automatically in X axis for programmable hole-to-hole block honing - hones a line of cylinders unattended. Automatic Lower Crash Protection System Many Engine Blocks have interference in the lower area of the bores and can damage honing stones and holders. Everytime the H85X starts honing a cylinder, the machine will check bores for interference avoiding potential damage to honing stones and holders. Variances in lower bores are common. Rottler H85X Control senses lower bore interference prior to rotation and stroking stroking motion starting at full power, eliminating any stone or holder damage.

Standard Equipment
Automatic Lower Crash Protection System – every time cycle start is activated, the machine will check that the stones will not interfere with lower bore before starting rotation and stroking preventing stone and stone holder damage.
Spindle Taper with Quick Change System - change hone heads in seconds without any wrenches
Automatic Honing Stone retract at End of Cycle – the machine will automatically retract the stones during last stroke so that the stones do not leave any scratches or marks in the bore.
Automatic Cross Hatch Angle System – the machine will automatically adjust parameters to programmed cross hatch angle and finish the bore to programmed angle.
Automatic Roughing and Finishing Load Sensing System - machine short strokes or dwells anywhere it senses a tight area.
Electronic Hand Wheel for lowering hone head into each bore
Automatic Stone Feed-out System - once hone head is positioned in the bore, the machine automatically expands stones and rotates slowly before starting hone cycle
Automatic Plateau Brush Finish Program - the machine automatically expands plateau brushes to programmed load and counts down number of plateau strokes, then withdraws the brushes and retracts to the clearance position.

Control
Rottler Software is designed with Simplicity in mind.Conversational software allows operators to quickly and easily learn and create their own programs. It takes only a few minutes to create a new program for a new block then it is saved for future recall and use.

It's Trivia Tuesday!!🥳Today's trivia... 40% of all "Check Engine" warning lights are caused by....?
a) need to tighten fuel cap
b) faulty oxygen sensors
c) needing new spark plugs
d) replacing your catalytic converter
It's b) faulty oxygen sensors!!
The oxygen sensor measures the amount of unburnt oxygen in a car’s exhaust system. An engine will keep running even if an O2 sensor needs to be replaced, but it will burn more fuel than usual. A bad O2 sensor can damage components like the spark plugs and the catalytic converter. It may also cause a car to fail an emissions test.
Make sure you check your engine when this light is on!!😁

Happy Throwback Thursday🥳! September 1963 magazine pages are a real throwback wow!!
