They are dipping the steel parts into a super heated salt concentrate, it is called the Salt Bath. Has high concentrated salt and heated to about 700 degrees, removes grease, oil, dirt, etc.
#thermalspray or #PlasmaSpray is being used at minute 2:00 to repair cylinder bores. From VRC we can introduce #ColdSpray for repair or blocks and crankshafts www.vrcmetalsystems.com
Is CatReman working worldwide? I mean do you send old machines from all over the world to your RemanFacilities? The official provider of Caterpillar in Ecuador has no idea of CatReman
Can a remanufactured product be repaired the same number of time as a new product?. It is said that a new product has 5 "lives", and therefore repaired four more times, while a reman product cannot be further repaired. Is this true?
No. Reman has to work 100% of it's orignial functionality. You can repair it as new; this 5 lives story is a fairy tale. Cats have 9 lives, really? You see :)
Go CAT. I'm here as a part of my ScPro Level-1 study material. Great example of a closed loop supply chain.

Yay, go Reman! I see I'm not the only one here because of my studies :) Hey everyone!
It is appreciable that CAT realized the importance of remanufacturing before a decade. But further research says it started in 70s!
i realize Im quite off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?

@kurlis Their welding more metal in to the bore so it can be machined to original diameter
this welding process on cylinder block, can pour the cracks in cylinder liner wall?
from 1:58 to 2:09 what process is that?
i'm thinking it's honing but i'm not sure
the process is Thermal spray... you can google SUMEBore and Sulzer Metco to see more applications of this technology.
can you help me with the reference salt bath. can you to be more specific?
