Abstract: A method for remanufacturing or repairing a cylinder head having a bore configured to receive a fuel injector comprises machining a portion of a surface forming the bore to remove imperfections, inserting a repair component into the bore proximate the machined portion of the bore, and spraying material into the bore proximate the machined portion and the repair component, thereby holding the component into place.

Abstract: A method of remanufacturing a surface of a machine component is provided. The method includes attaching the machine component to a support fixture. The method also includes moving a surface evaluating device relative to the surface of the machine component. The method further includes generating a set of data points using the surface evaluating device. The method includes communicating the set of data points generated by the surface evaluating device to a control module. The method also includes determining a depth of wear on the surface, based on the set of data points received by the control module. The method further includes determining an amount of material to be removed from the surface, based on the depth of wear. The method includes performing a machining operation on the surface for removing the determined amount of material.
