Imported Machines
The imported machines line for engine rebuilding brings together selected equipment for boring cylinders, honing and grinding valves with industrial precision. It includes portable and bench-type boring machines for different diameter ranges, a hydraulic honing machine for internal cylinder finishing, and a valve grinder with a quick-clamping system. Each model covers a specific step in the engine rebuilding process — from boring to honing — serving motorcycle, automotive and larger engine applications. Check the technical datasheet for each model to confirm the diameter range and specifications that match your application.
Specifications subject to change without notice. Some capacities listed may require optional accessories depending on the model. Refer to each unit's technical datasheet for exact dimensions and limitations.
Frequently asked questions
What equipment is included in the imported machines line for engine rebuilding?
The category includes five imported machines: cylinder boring machines BCM-80, BCP-140 and BCP-165 (covering different diameter ranges), the BHCN-140 hydraulic honing machine for internal cylinder finishing, and the RVCH-100 valve grinder with quick-clamping system. Each model covers a distinct stage or application within the engine rebuilding process. Check the individual technical datasheet to identify the right model for your specific needs.
What is the difference between a portable boring machine and a bench-type boring machine in this line?
The BCM-80 is a portable boring machine — more compact, designed for cylinders from Ø1.8 to 3.1 inches (Ø46-80mm) with an integrated tool sharpener, making it practical for tight workspaces. The BCP-140 and BCP-165 are larger machines covering wider diameter ranges, suited for engine machine shops with demand for machining cylinders from bigger engines. The right choice depends on the cylinder diameter range you work with regularly.
What motors and cylinders are these imported machines designed for?
Models in this line serve cylinders from motorcycles and passenger cars to larger engines, depending on the model selected. The BCM-80 handles smaller cylinders — Ø1.8-3.1 inches (Ø46-80mm) — suited for motorcycles and compact engines. The BHCN-140 hones cylinders from Ø1.6 to 5.5 inches (Ø40-140mm), covering a broad automotive range. The BCP-165 handles cylinders from Ø3.1 to 6.3 inches (Ø80-160mm), appropriate for larger engines. Check each model's datasheet to confirm compatibility with your engine.
Does the BHCN-140 hydraulic honing machine perform the same operation as the boring machines?
No — they cover different operations. The boring machines (BCM-80, BCP-140, BCP-165) perform cylinder boring: removing material to correct shape and diameter. The BHCN-140 hydraulic honing machine performs honing: fine finishing of the cylinder's internal surface to achieve the crosshatch pattern required for proper piston ring seating. In a complete engine rebuild, both operations are complementary and necessary steps.
How can I request a quote or technical support for the imported machines?
Contact the Chinelatto team through the quote request form available on each product page or via direct support channels. For imported machines, please provide the model of interest, the intended application (engine type and cylinder diameter range), and whether you need spare parts or technical assistance. The team will respond with availability, lead time and commercial terms for the model you inquire about.
