Over the years, we have provided long-term and stable cylinder head OEM manufacturing services to many motorcycle brands (including listed companies), and have become the largest motorcycle cylinder head manufacturer in Yueqing City, China.
We mainly use high-performance aluminum alloys such as ADC12 and A356. The ADC12 is ideal for complex shapes such as side covers due to its excellent flow properties, while the A356 is the first choice for structural parts such as crankboxes that require excellent strength and elongation. We use a spectrometer to confirm the composition of each melt to ensure material stability.
Preventing leaks is the core standard we ensure. We control internal density through precise high or low pressure casting parameters. After casting, we perform precision CNC machining on the sealing surfaces and perform pneumatic leak tests on the oil passages and water passages to ensure zero leaks in the assembly.
For new OEM projects, the lead time from mold design to T1 sample delivery is typically 35-50 days. Once samples are approved, our capacity of 5000 tons per year allows us to adjust mass production plans to meet your specific delivery deadlines
Our process includes Shot Blasting and vibration deburring to achieve a clean, matte appearance. At the same time, we can also prepare powder coated or painted surfaces based on the aesthetic requirements of your brand.
Not all engine cover processes are the same. At Feiya, we match the process to the function of the parts.
High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC): We recommend it for thin-walled side covers where surface polishing and production cycle speed are critical. Our HPDC machines can immediately fill complex cavities with high injection speeds, ensuring clear details and dense skin layers.
Low Pressure Casting (LPDC): Our LPDC machines are the best choice for heavy crankcase shells or structural covers that require a high degree of internal integrity. Controlled, bottom-up filling minimizes turbulence and air retention, significantly improving heat treatability and structural strength.
Choosing the right aluminum alloy is critical for thermal management and durability.
ADC12 (Al-Si-Cu): The industry standard for most motorcycle engine hoods. Its excellent flow allows complex ribs and logos to be cast, while its size stability ensures tight tolerances after machining.
A356 (Al-Si-Mg): We specify A356 for parts under high mechanical stress. Its excellent elongation and corrosion resistance make it ideal for structural enclosures. We use a Spectro spectrometer to verify each melt, strictly control the Fe content, prevent sludge formation, and ensure optimal mechanical properties
The quality of the engine cover depends on its suitability. The mating surface between the cover and the engine block must be completely flat to maintain a seal under thermal expansion. At Feiya, we perform single face milling to eliminate clamping distortions. Flatness tolerances can often be maintained in the micron range and verified with a Hexagon coordinate measuring machine. This precision machining capability eliminates the need to use excessive liquid gaskets and prevents long-term oil leaks.
