  • Machine debris clean out system
    Patent number: 11964353
    Abstract: An apparatus for removing debris from under a machining location is formed of a static collection surface located below the machining location having a transition portion laterally offset from the machining location and a fluid discharge positioned above the transition portion. The fluid discharge includes a fluid source and a reservoir having an interior adapted to receive and contain a quantity of a fluid from the fluid source for a period of time. The fluid sicharge is adapted to periodically discharge the fluid therefrom so as to be guided by the transition portion across the collection surface to sweep the debris off the static collection surface towards a collection point.

  • System and method of producing exhaust and other types of manifold
    Patent number: 7096583
    Abstract: This invention provides an improved system and method for producing manifolds such as those used to direct exhaust gasses from an internal combustion engine into a turbocharger. The manifold is made from two or more pieces which are machined in such a way as to create passageways when the separate pieces are assembled together. The method is much faster and easier to produce than present methods and allows for improved accuracy. The ability to machine these manifolds using computer controlled machines will lower costs and improve quality.
