Engine Production Line
An engine production line is a highly automated and assembly process that specializes in the manufacture of automotive engines. This method of production allows for the high volume and high efficiency production of engine products with uniform specifications.

1.Production line layout design
The concept of modularization design runs through the full automatic engine production line, whether it is a small engine production line or a large engine assembly line, it can be flexibly adjusted according to production demand. By dividing the production line into modularized areas such as cylinder block machining area, crankshaft assembly area (part of the sub-assembly line) and general assembly area (final assembly line), it can be quickly adapted to different engine types. In terms of space optimization, the engine automatic production line reasonably plans material conveying channels, with suspended conveyor chains and AGV trolleys, so that cylinder blocks, crankshafts, pistons and other parts flow efficiently between the final assembly line and sub-assembly line, reducing ineffective handling time.
2.Key Production Process
Cylinder block processing is an important part of the full automatic engine production line. In the engine precision machining production line, high-precision CNC machine tools perform boring and milling operations to ensure micron-level accuracy of cylinder barrels. When assembling the crankshaft on the sub-assembly line, special press-fit equipment accurately controls clearances. During final assembly line operations, workers install valves, spark plugs and connect systems following strict processes. The engine automatic production line ensures perfect coordination between all systems through this phased assembly approach.
3.Application of technical equipment
Automation equipment is the core of the full automatic engine production line. Welding robots precisely weld engine blocks while intelligent tightening machines monitor bolt torque in real-time. The engine automatic production line's intelligent logistics system utilizes AGVs to deliver parts just-in-time between the final assembly line and sub-assembly line. Digital twin technology simulates the entire engine automatic production line process, identifying potential issues before physical production begins. This integration between virtual and physical systems is a hallmark of modern full automatic engine production lines.
4.Quality control system
The engine automatic production line implements comprehensive quality control from raw materials to finished engines. On the sub-assembly line, coordinate measuring machines verify critical dimensions. The final assembly line includes professional dynamometers that test power, torque and fuel consumption under various conditions. Each engine in the full automatic engine production line receives a unique traceability code, with all production data recorded in the MES system. This ensures perfect quality tracking throughout both the final assembly line and sub-assembly line processes.
