Genuine Holset Reman: The remanufacturing process
Genuine Holset Reman Turbochargers follow a rigorous process to ensure every part is examined, cleaned, tested and restored to meet Holset Original Equipment specifications. The following steps describe the measures Holset takes to remanufacture Genuine Holset Reman Turbochargers, creating a product comparable to a Holset Genuine New Turbocharger.
A great benefit of Holset remanufacturing is you can get a lower priced Holset turbocharger by simply trading in your worn-out turbo and have a quick external visual inspection done.
Holset turbochargers and parts are completely disassembled to prepare key components for processing – right down to the last screw, nut, bolt and spring. Our factory technicians follow standard quality processes to ensure we only remanufacture the highest quality turbochargers and components.
Resilient and hardworking Holset turbochargers go through extreme environments. That’s why once disassembled into individual components, each part is carefully cleaned to remove any dirt and debris.
Critical processes to verify the parts are ready for restoration are done at this stage.
- Checks for microscopic damage at the housing, compressor, turbine wheels and rotating assembly
- Balance of the wheels and rotating assemblies to Holset OEM specifications
We use a variety of techniques and equipment to ensure every part that goes into a Genuine Holset turbocharger meets Holset OE specifications and improved standards of performance.
- Computer-controlled lathes, machining centers, and honing and grinding equipment renew worn surfaces to OE standard
- Upgrades or supersessions to components are included as part of the Holset remanufacturing process
- Our state-of-the-art techniques and highly trained workforce provide measurable quality results
- Turbochargers are assembled in a clean environment, certified by TS16949 and ISO 9001 to minimize foreign object debris
- Critical wear parts such as seals, thrust plates, bearings and fasteners are always replaced
Holset validation testing employs fail-safe processes to verify that performance and reliability of the finished remanufactured turbochargers meet Holset and OE original factory standards.
Critical parts such as bore and shaft straightness are measured with tolerances as narrow as 1 micron, which is smaller than a strand of hair. This produces a remanufactured product that’s of superior quality at a fraction of the cost.
Once the remanufacturing process is complete, Genuine Holset Reman Turbochargers are ready to be reintroduced to the field, where the true test of quality is performed. That’s why Holset conducts extensive testing of our products – and our competitors' – verifying superior performance and value for your money.
