✦ Synopsis

In mass production of cylinder liners, the industrial honing involves multistage abrasive finishing processes, using at first a coarse abrasive stones, and then progressively finer grades, so that a very structured surface of liner is produced. A useful method in diagnosis of industrial honing is presented. It is based on the use of multiscale surface analysis to study the progress of abrasive wear mechanisms which occurred in honing while it was in operation. Thus, the examination of generated surface components by honing to detect the topographical signatures, and especially, signatures of surface in the right scale, is an important part of quality assessment in cylinder liner production.
