How long will a 3D printed cylinder head last? In this video, I test both PLA and ABS plastic 3D printed cylinder heads (made by Terry from Southern Manitoba Canada--thank you Terry!). The cylinder heads and gaskets look amazing and they were designed with great precision. Thanks to all who recommended this video idea!

Not all plastic. There are “thermoplastics” which are designed to withstand very high temperatures. Those don’t melt. They are used in products such as fireplace doors, intake manifolds, and BBQ grill parts. However, when they sustain higher temperatures than they are rated to handle, they become brittle and burn.

@semichiganandy2127 6 лет назад

Your vids are fun and educational. Injection molded ABS parts soften between 90 and 100 deg. C so I expected these results, but they were still fun. ABS is the most commonly plated plastic for exterior automotive applications. Presently, after several steps, the first metal layer is electroless copper, but before stable electroless copper baths were developed, low temperature (alkaline) electroless nickel-phosphorous baths were used. The acidic Ni-P baths have numerous advantages over the low temp ones, but they operate around 95 deg. C and distort the parts, so the alkaline baths were used (25-40 deg. C). I'm going to add one more thing. At one time one of the automotive manufactures looked into using thermoset polymeric composites (not ABS) as a replacement for rotating and reciprocating (but not exposed to flame) engine components. However, the team was small and when the leader left the company, the project died. That was over 30 years ago.

@ProjectFarm 6 лет назад

Thank you very much for this information!

@semichiganandy2127 6 лет назад

I wish I could say more, but the information is proprietary (and probably forgotten entirely by the corporation) so I can't give the details on the engine parts. But I'll say that the project was discontinued because the key person left, not because it ran into technical road blocks.

@semichiganandy2127 6 лет назад

Lassi Kinnunen Yes, there are. But the parts that they were examining were a lot more difficult to replace than what you listed and I don't want to say what they were. They're the kind of things that you'd say "I never thought that they could use plastics there."

@Marc83Aus 6 лет назад

The problem is that fused filament disposition relies on using materials that melt at low temperatures, a 3d printed plastic cylinder head would either need a temperature resistant coating or some better cooling system, maybe running oil through the head. Or an upgraded printer and some very high temperature plastic. Or maybe water injection into the cylinder during the exhaust cycle to take the heat out before it builds up.

@MeepChangeling 6 лет назад

Not true! Many 3d printing materials are high heat and require an oven-like chamber being constructed around the print area.

@ShikiKaze 6 лет назад

Polycarbonate has a 66psi tensile strength at 260F ish after hardening. It will break under pressure. Nylon X will survive the pressure but temperature beyond 320F will melt it. Depends as pressure and temperature at the same time and increase stress in the material to crack and blow out if the material isn't able to cure or set properly during printing and curing stage.

@tiebei2548 6 лет назад

I wonder if the green plastic head (forgot the material) would last longer if it had some sort of non-conductive seat for the spark plug. Like some sort of alloy that would dissipate heat enough for it to last longer. You could tap the plastic cylinder head and then add that alloy collar to it and the spark plug could screw into the collar. I'm having a hard time trying to convey what I mean and it might be outside of the scope of your experiment. Maybe bushing is a better word. 1911 pistols have this feature for the grips. It's a little grommet that screws into the frame so you can change screws without risking damage to the frame of the firearm.

Just an FYI for anyone that's interested. I just did a 5 page report on 3D printing/additive manufacturing last night for my engineering class, so I'm feeling especially knowledgeable for a few days until I forget it all... ABS vs PLA is a common decision to make when doing 'extruded material' 3D printing. ABS is a plastic made from petroleum, so it toxic (fumes). PLA is made from organic materials, so it is not toxic, but, as the video shows, it is not as strong and is more sensitive to heat.

SRT8 MadMan when I was a kid we ran an old 2 horse tecumseh with peanut oil in it. Governor wide open & no load. It would sieze & free up as soon as she cooled down. Ran that way for maybe 3/4 tank of fuel until the rod let go & put a nice hole in the block.

5:51 "I'm going to start with a new sparkplug, and I'm going to go ahead and create a large gap just to avoid plastic causing it to fail on us." 6:21 The plastic melts, causing the sparkplug to blowout and fail on us. I just found it kind of funny that an extra step was taken to avoid the sparkplug getting plastic stuck on the electrode and causing it to not to function, but instead, it failed on us in a different way.

@thesunreport 6 лет назад

sounds like a good idea at first...but you'd probably have to make so many water channels that the structural integrity of the piece would be lost for a high-pressure application like this??

@ts3dprints732 6 лет назад

You could 3d print the water jacket. Base off of how much plastic is melted there the water jacket would have to be very close to the surface. Probably won't hold up to the combination then.

I have a test suggestion: Using torch heat to free seized bolts: heat only to the bolt, heat only the nut, heat both, apply torque after cooling or while hot, and try add paraffin wax from candle when hot as anti-seize to see if it works. A lot of combinations can be made, enough for a good video. (Inspired by ChuckE2009 who is fast to draw the blue tip wrench when he finds a seized bolt)

@andreww.6283 6 лет назад

Hi, I work on mopeds and two stroke scooters. One thing I heard is that you can take off the head gasket and run the engine with out it. I’ve never done this, but people say that this improves compression and bumps up performance. Would you be willing to debunk this?

@ProjectFarm 6 лет назад

Thanks for the video idea!

@andreww.6283 6 лет назад

Project Farm No problem. I’d recommend wet sanding the bottom of the cylinder head on a slab of granite so you can get a flat and even contact on the cylinder jug.

@jusb1066 6 лет назад

if the faces fit very well you can use a thin layer of gasket sealant (blue hylomar we used to use) some engines were indeed a precision fit with no gaskets

@FishFind3000 6 лет назад

You still need a gasket but get one with less thickness. You just don’t want anything to hit once you shorten the length.

@TheWallsocket 6 лет назад

The performance increase is mainly due to having a tighter squish band, and not the modest bump in compression. A better way to achieve the same result is to have your head machined down, and still use the gasket. You have to measure your squish band and tell your machinist how much needs to be taken off the head.

*can you do the lubricity tester on fuels? Like petrol, 2stroke and most importantly JET1A fuel if possible?*

@ProjectFarm 6 лет назад

Thank you for the recommendation!

@opossom1968 6 лет назад

JET 1A is actually Diesel fuel, just as Kerosene is. JET is certified to be water and particulate free, but its just Diesel.

@oinka720 6 лет назад

I too would like to see the lubricity of fuels tested. I've heard it claimed that gasoline acts as a lubricant in the upper cylinder and that the addition of ethanol to gasoline robs it of its lubricity. Also some additives (ex. Lucas upper cylinder lubricant) claim to improve the lubricity of fuel to the end of improving gas mileage. I'd love to see those claims tested. But please don't set your workbench on fire in the process.

@Ralothael 6 лет назад

I personally have seen an increase of about 2 MPG in my 2004 Grand Caravan with the 3.3L in it using the Lucas. So its obviously doing something. It also increased the responsiveness of it as well. I run it every fill up.

@gchsbus 5 лет назад

You know, I wonder how one of these plastic cylinder heads would perform if the guy who sent them to you engineered them where the spark plug could still be screwed in with a recessed area while the cylinder head itself was much fatter and had cooling pipes running through it, connected to one of those PC water cooling systems or something that could cool down the plastic. Just makes you wonder. Seems the only reason the heads failed was due to heat.

@blakeirvin3011 5 лет назад

TLDR - It would probably work if they made a high temperature plastic that could be printed, but that would probably be expensive! Love the train of thought on that, I'm a PC tech so I kinda wonder the same thing. Though I feel like a big issue would be if the car overheated and either boiled the liquid in those lines or melted them leaking it out. The design would probably either be expensive due to the amount of materials needed to be efficie t or really cheap due to failure rate becauseit how hot the normal operating temperature is and other systems could cause the engine to run hotter than normal too. So it would probably just require a better material.

@crash331 5 лет назад

PLA melts with a hairdryer. It ain't gonna last regardless.

@ebouwman034 5 лет назад

I can’t see it working. Plastic doesn’t conduct heat very well, so the cooling system wouldn’t really cool the combustion chamber enough... which is where the failures are happening.

@metalman6708 5 лет назад

You could make it with some high temperature plastics. It'd be more expensive than just going and buying the best lawn mower money can buy. And retarded when I could make it out of aluminum for a hundred bucks.
