Active suspension System of Automobiles.Mayank khare
An active suspension system,has the capability to adjust itself continuously to changing road conditions. It "artificially" extends the design parameters of the system by constantly monitoring and adjusting itself, thereby changing its character on an ongoing basis. It's schizophrenic, if you will, but with a purpose. With advanced sensors and microprocessors feeding it information all the time, its identity remains fluid, contextual, amorphous. By changing its character to respond to varying road conditions, active suspension offers superior handling, road feel, responsiveness and safety.
Quality and best engine provides better performance and boost our engines (vehicle's) efficiency. So it is better to follow a good engine management system.

2. Shop cutters
• In the context of machining,
a cutting tool or cutter is any
tool that is used to remove some
material from the work piece by
means of shear deformation.
Cutting may be accomplished by
single-point or multipoint tools.
Single-point tools are used
in turning, shaping, planning and
similar operations, and remove
material by means of one cutting
edge. Milling and drilling tools are
often multipoint tools. It is a body
having teeth or cutting edges on
it.
3. Pullers
• A puller is a tool used to remove parts such
as bearings, pulleys or gears from a shaft.
They have legs, typically two or three which
circle around the back or inside of a part and
they also have a forcing screw which centers
up against the end of a shaft.
• Jaw type puller. Two or three jaw style, with
three jaw being the best choice. Manual or
hydraulic with outside jaw positions.
• Push/Pull puller. Use male or female
adaptors to thread into tapped holes on
components.
• Slide hammer puller. Use on light duty
applications. For use with attachments.
• Bar type puller with bearing separator. Bar
type with side rods threaded into bearing
separator provides "knife edge" to get behind
component or when there is not a good
gripping edge.
4. Stud-extractor
• A screw extractor is a tool for removing
broken or seized screws. There are two
types: one has a spiral flute structure,
commonly called an easy out the other
has a straight flute structure. Screw
extractors are intentionally made
of hard, brittle steel, and, if too much
torque is applied, can break off inside the
screw that is being removed. Since the
extractor is an extremely hard material,
and a typical home shop drill bit will not be
able to drill into it, a larger element of
difficulty is added to the original screw
extraction project. One way to avoid this
added difficulty is to drill a hole completely
through the screw. Thus, if the fastener
breaks, a punch can be used to drive out
the easy out from the screw, via the back,
or end, of the fastener.
5. Torque wrench • A torque wrench is a tool used to apply a
specific torque to a fastener such as
a nut, bolt, or lag screw. It is usually in the
form of a socket wrench with special internal
mechanisms.
• Important nuts and bolts in automobile work
must be tightened with a specified amount of
torque, because excessive torque may result
in their breakage while less torque, they will
remain loose. This permits
proper tension and loading of all parts.
• A torque wrench uses torque as a proxy for
bolt tension. The technique suffers from
inaccuracy due to inconsistent or
uncalibrated friction between the fastener
and its mating hole. Measuring bolt tension
(indirectly via bolt stretch) is what is desired,
but often torque is the only
practical measurement which can be made.
• Different type of torque wrench as shown in
diagram.
6. Piston ring
expander
• A unique tool that will speed the
removal and installation of piston
rings with minimum ring distortion.
The use of a ring expander will
greatly reduce ring point
misalignment which can be
detrimental to good piston ring
sealing and engine performance.
Made of steel and requires no
adjustments.
7. Piston ring
groove cleaner
• This tool is specially designed to clean
up the compression ring slots. It will
remove the carbon build-up easily. The
tool includes two cleaning spurs with
sizes 5/64", 3/32", 1/8", 5/32", 3/16",
1/4", 1.5mm, 1.75mm, 2mm. Can be
used on all pistons with 2 3/4" to 5" (70
to 127mm) diameter.
8. Piston ring
compressor
• Piston ring compressors are places
around the piston covering the rings. As
the compressor is tightened, it
compresses the piston rings into their
grooves on the piston. Then the piston
and rod assembly is installed into the
cylinder.
9. Alignments of
Wheels
• It is used to inspect and repair the wheel geometry. It is
equipped with pre-alignment inspection check, self diagnostics
to enable quick detection of errors, and on-screen real-time
adjustment for high precision and speed.
• Every vehicle manufacturer furnishes the wheel alignment
specification for the vehicles manufactured by him.
• Measurement and adjusting the wheel alignment angles
conforming to the above specified value is called the wheel
alignment.
• Wheel alignment angles are
• (i) Wheel angles - camber and toe.
• (ii) Steering axis angles – caster and king pin inclination.
• (iii) Unwanted angles – wheel run out and set back.
• Each wheel alignment angle has a specific purpose and
function. If they are not set properly. The effects will be uneven
tire wear, loss of steering control, pulling to one side while
driving, jerking on travel etc.
10. Alignments of Wheels
• It may not be possible to correct all the above angles in a vehicle. Depending upon the
design of suspension, some angles are adjustable at workshop level, and some are not
adjustable.
• Description of equipment : The system consists of main cabinet, electronic unit, power
supply unit, display panel, membrane keyboard, sensor arms and printer.
• 1. Main cabinet : It is the housing for the electronic unit and power supply unit. The
sensor arms are fixed to the pins provided in the sides of the main cabinet.
• 2. Display panel : It consists of three display windows and membrane keyboard. The
centre window displays the ongoing programmers the left and right windows display
the respective alignment angles that are being checked.
• 3. Membrane keyboard : This consists of two sections. One section contains the
display windows; the other section contains the operational keys for the selection and
operation of various functions of the system.
• 4. Sensor arms : The sensor arms (left and right) contain high precision electronic
sensing elements require and transmit the various alignment parameters to the
electronic unit. These arms are fixed with spirit level.
• 5. Wheel brackets : Brackets will be mounted on the left and right wheel rims. The
sensor arms will be mounted on these wheel brackets.
• 6. Rear wheel size : These are used as a reference for centering the front wheels with
respect to the geometric center line of the vehicle.
• 7. Rotary plates : The rotary plate consists of a freely rotating plate in which degree
graduations are marked to measure the angle of rotation. While carrying out alignment,
the wheels of the vehicle being aligned will rest of these plates. The rotary plates
enable left 20 degree and right 20-degree movement required for measuring caster
angle.
• 8. Steering lock : It is used lock the steering wheel movement, while performing the toe
adjustment.
• 9. Brake pedal lock : It is to keep the brake in pressed condition, so that the vehicle will
not move during the turn left 20 degree and turn right 20-degree programs.
11. Balancing of wheels
• Modern suspension systems and higher driving speeds have made it
necessary that the wheel and tire assembly be in balance if maximum driving
and riding comfort, maximum safety, and maximum tire life are to be realized.
Front wheels are more sensitive to an unbalanced condition than the rear
wheels, but all four should be balanced to prolong tire life.
• A wheel and tire assembly can be balanced in two ways statically and
dynamically. Static imbalance is indicated by ‘wheel tramp’. Dynamic imbalance
will cause the wheel to wobble or shimmy. Type of imbalance can exist without
the other, although both tires are usually present at the same time.
• Wheel balance should be checked at regular intervals, and also a tire has been
repaired, retreaded, or recapped.
• Computerized wheel balances are used to check the wheel balancing. It is
used to check the single plane (static) and two plane (dynamic) balancing.
Balancer has a spindle driven by an electrical motor.
• Attach the wheel to the balancer spindle with the help of quick cone lock nut.
Quick cone lock nut – ensures fast mounting and removal of wheel. Spin the
wheel at high speed, the computer displays unbalance for inner and outer rims
in single run. Determine the size of weights needed. Self checking, on error line
program facilities are available in this balancer. Measuring range of this
balancer is 0-200gms and balancing speed 400 rpm.
12. Arbor Press
• An arbor press is a small hand-
operated press. It is typically used to
perform smaller jobs, such
as staking, riveting, installing,
configuring and
removing bearings and other press
fit work. Punches, inserters, or other
tools/dies may be added to the end of
the ram depending on the desired
task.
• Typically, common are presses with a
leverage of 1–5 tons. This leverage is
achieved when a force is applied to
the lever arm or wheel.
13. Drill press/
Machine
• Drill press, also called Drilling Machine, device for
producing holes in hard substances. The drill is held in
a rotating spindle and is fed into the workpiece, which
is usually clamped in a vise resting on a table. The
drill may be gripped in a chuck with three jaws that
move radially in unison, or it may have a tapered
shank that fits into a tapered hole in the spindle.
14. Tire Changer
• A tire changer is a machine used to help
tire technicians dismount and mount tires
with automobile wheels. After the wheel
and tire assembly are removed from the
automobile, the tire changer has all the
components necessary to remove and
replace the tire from the wheel. Different
tire changers allow technicians to replace
tires on automobiles, motorcycles and
heavy-duty trucks. New tire and wheel
technology has improved certain tire
changers to be able to change a low-
profile tire or a run-flat tire.
15. Car Washer
• Regular chassis washing of both cars and commercial vehicles to remove grease, oil,
mud and other corrosive deposits is most essential. This type of cleaning is a time
representative of preventive maintenance. This is easily done by a spray of water with
a solvent, at high pressure (above 25 kg/cm2).
• Car washer consists of a pump which is driven by a electric motor. The pump sucks
water from a well or from water tank filled beneath it and delivers to the nozzle through
a pipe of hoses with high pressure. There are two types of car washers as follows.
• That provided with single hose which can be used to wash only one vehicle at a time
• 1. That provided with twin hoses which can be used to wash two vehicles at a time.
The nozzles are adjustable, so that the delivery of water can be regulated at variable
force from fine spray to solid jet.
• Automatic Washing-
• The automatic car wash machine has a three-horsepower pumping station which
pumps up to 100ltrs of water per minute through 15 numbers of nozzles, 12 of which
spray as a pre-wash arch which washes tires, wheels and rocker panels and rest
three nozzles' sprays on back top brush. The machine dispenses a specially
formulated foaming, high pressure chemical during a pre-wash pass which is applied
along with high pressure wash.
• The high-pressure spray automatically adjusts to the vehicle’s dimensions by the use
of P L C based control panel and lastly, high pressure air blowers maintain the best
air-steam helps to dry the complete vehicle surfaces.
• The features and benefits of
• 1. Washes all shapes, sizes and configurations of vehicles.
• 2. All brushes are made of extremely durable at soft bristles that are carefully hand-
woven.
• 3. There is an intensified rear wash programmed to effectively double wash the backs
of vehicles.
16. Battery
Charger
• Automobile battery charger is exactly like
a cell phone or laptop charger but for
a car or truck battery. These devices plug
into an electrical outlet on one end (source
of power) and connect to a vehicles
battery terminals with cables that resemble
jumper/booster cables.
• Battery charger uses three-phase charging
mode(PWM charging mode), which
includes constant current charging phase,
constant voltage charging phase, floating
charging phase with short circuit protection,
over voltage protection, anti - reverse
connecting protection etc.
17. Valve Grinder
• If the valve face is badly scored or pitted, it may be
done on a special valve refacing machine .
• The machine consists of a grinding wheel operated
by an electric motor. The valve is held in chuck
which is also rotated with electric motor. There is a
provision to set the valve chuck at any desired
angle. This angle must just match the valve seat
angle. Then put the valve into the chuck and
tighten the chuck. The valve should be placed in
the chuck so that the part of the stem that runs in
the valve guide is gripped by the chuck.
• To start the operation, align the coolant feed so
that it sprays coolant on the rotating valve face.
Then start the machine, move the lever to carry
the valve face across the grinding wheel. The first
cut should be a light one.
• Do not take heavy cuts. If so much metal must be
removed that the margin is lost, discard the valve.

18. Cylinder Boring Machine
• In recent practice the method of truing worm cylinders with the
baring bar has become widely used on account of its rapidity and
precision. Reboring is done on special machines, it is shown in
Figure.
• In this machines uses a single point tool (or) cutter which is set to
the exact diameter required with special micrometer. The cutting
edge is sharpened on a revolving disk, using a mixture of diamond
dirt and oil. The cutter blade shaft is mounted inside a column which
moves up and down its housing in the mixed part of the machine,
for tool feeding purpose. The cutter is driven at low speed by an
electric motor mounted on the machine.
• The top surface of the cylinder block is thoroughly cleaned and the
boring bar set at one of the cylinder bores. The bar is centered set
to the desired depth of cut and the machine started. The cutter will
bore progressively to the other end, and the machine stops when
the boring complete. After the job is complete again the cylinder
must be washed thoroughly to remove all abrasive particles.
19. Cylinder Honing Machine
• Honing the cylinder walls is necessary after reboring, or to remove
minor imperfections and glaze. A hone consists of four or six
narrow, fine-graded grinding stones mounted in cage around a
spindle which is rotated by an electric motor.
• In the fixed, machine-shop type hone, the cylinder block is
mounted on the machine table, and the vertical or stroking
movement of the hone up and down the bore often effected
automatically. Portable hones designed to be driven by a heavy
duty electric drill mounted on a stroking stand are also widely
used, especially in conjunctions with a portable boring bar; in
these cases the stroking action is effected manually.
• Place the hone in the cylinder and expand the stones until the
assembly can just be turned by hand and machine started. Home
drive at drill speed while moving the hone up and down the entire
length of the cylinder until the hone begins to run free. During this
operation a liberal amount of kerosene, or other suitable cutting
fluid, should be used to keep the stones clean.
• Move the hone up and down slowly with the first-cut rough rough
stones, but more rapidly with the finish-cut line stones. Expand the
stones against the cylinder walls and repeat honing operation until
the desired bore diameter is obtained. After the honing is
completed, all abrasive particles must be removed from the
engine parts. Hot water and soap is recommended to clean the
cylinder walls.
