Announced FriCSo, Inc., a provider of patented, environmentally friendly technology nanolayer based to reduce friction between moving parts, the success of efforts aimed at improving automotive engines.
Previously, tests conducted by the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology and found that it FriCSo Surface Engineering Treatment (SET) will take part in FriCSo product line. According to the results, FriCSo technology that reduces particulate emissions, increases engine mechanical efficiency, and reduce fuel consumption.
“This test is further proof that the FriCSo SET introducing a new era in energy efficiency and environmental protection,” said Amir Weisberg, CEO FriCSo, Inc. “FriCSo set new standards for reducing friction and wear, and allows manufacturers to offer a better product for meeting the demand in the market, with unprecedented performance. “
Breakthrough technology that reduces friction between moving parts FriCSo SET through the process of innovative polymer-based machining. SET creates nanolayer oil maintain organic chemicals that are bound to a metal surface. As a result, increasing the surface hardness and improve the landscape surface. The technology is expected to increase the efficiency of the auto parts such as brakes and, at the same time, overall performance and functionality of the vehicle.
Technion Faculty of Mechanical Engineering who performed tests on a tractor 4-cylinder diesel engine in the Laboratory of Internal Combustion Engine. This test consists of two runs. The first test served as the baseline. This is done without any surface treatment. The second test after performing for the main engine as a result of friction cylinder liners, rocker shafts, piston pins, and valves with new parts are treated with SET FriCSo him.
Technion test results showing that using the SET treatment leads to a reduction in fuel consumption of 0.4 to four percent, depending on engine load RPM a. In addition, the SET treatment led to a substantial piece of particle emissions, about 43-46 per cent, while eating less oil was 48 per cent compared to the base case. In addition, the SET treatment leads to an improvement of about two per cent mechanical efficiency of the engine.
According to S. Sumithra, a research analyst with Frost & Sullivan, “is the answer FriCSo innovative device, which could replace existing non-environmental friendly coatings in automotive coatings.”
Surface treatment which gives coating FriCSo similar performance. SET consists of one or both of the following processes: Mapping the high performance polymer as a single treatment, and two-step procedure which includes the texture surface by using vibro-grooving followed by polymer Mapping. “Solutions FriCSo and innovative device, which could replace existing non-environmental friendly coatings in the field of automotive coatings,” says Sumithra.
Said Amir Weisberg, CEO FriCSo, Inc., not “in the coating layer but answers FriCSo provide similar performance at a fraction of the cost, time and maintenance required by traditional solutions. Parts of metal treatment with SET enjoy high wear resistance and improved energy efficiency in the SET machine. cost-effective compared to using exotic metals for metal-pairs design, RUPP and other layers and bushings, and even offers improved performance in specific applications. Be friendly to the environment, this technology does not produce toxic waste and in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) restrictions. “
