Motor W16: Vilbrochenul
The English posting of this blog is located here
In a 4-a parte a seriei despre motorul W16 voi prezenta vilbrochenul si voi explica detaliat constructia lui.
Explicatiile detaliate despre constructia blocului pot fi gasite in “extended entry” la sfarsitul postarii.
Va multumesc pentru ca ati citit despre aceasta constructie. Continuati sa cititi urmatoarele postari ce vor include ansamblul Block-Crankshaft-Pistons (bloc-arbore cotit-pistoane) si animarea lui.
