Connecting Rod Fork Assembly for ALCO, EMD & GE Locomotive Engines

Diesel locomotive engines built by ALCO, EMD, and GE all share one common engineering challenge: efficiently transmitting the force of combustion from multiple pistons onto a single crankpin. This is precisely where the Connecting Rod Fork Assembly comes in. Because these engines are typically arranged in V-configuration cylinder banks, a single crankpin must accommodate two … Continue reading Connecting Rod Fork Assembly for ALCO, EMD & GE Locomotive Engines
