Designation decoded

WinGD 6X35 – 6-cylinder two-stroke slow-speed engine, bore 350 mm, stroke 1550 mm, fully electronic common-rail control (camshaft-less). Base version of the X35 series. Compact engine for smaller merchant vessels and feeder container ships.

Background

The X35 is the smallest engine in the WinGD X series and is aimed at handysize bulkers, small container ships and general cargo ships. With a bore of 350 mm it offers a power-efficient solution in the lower power segment of two-stroke slow-speed engines. The 6-cylinder configuration offers good running smoothness and balanced inertia forces. The fully electronic control via UNIC enables flexible load profiles and optimized emissions.

Inspector checklist

Logbook reference values

Parameter Expected Deviation means
Common-Rail-Druck 600–900 bar (lastabhängig) Pressure deviation indicates pump performance loss or injector leakage
Pmax pro Zylinder Gemäß WinGD-Testprotokoll ±3 bar Deviation indicates injection or compression irregularities
Exhaust gas temperature per cylinder Mittelwert ±15 °C Individual cylinder deviation indicates injector problem or valve leakage
Zylinderöl-Dosierrate 0.6–1.0 g/kWh (depending on fuel sulfur content) Too low rate increases wear, too high rate causes deposits and increased costs
Scavenge air temperature after cooler 35–45 °C Elevated temperature indicates clogged scavenge air cooler or cooling water problem

Common Failure Modes

Injector coking and nozzle wear
Symptoms: ['Ungleichmäßige Abgastemperaturen', 'Erhöhter Kraftstoffverbrauch', 'Visible smoke at part load']
Causes: Minderwertige Kraftstoffaufbereitung, Überschreitung der Wartungsintervalle, Thermische Belastung der Düsenspitze
Preventive: Replace injectors at prescribed intervals; monitor fuel quality and treatment; perform pressure curve measurement regularly
Auslassventilschäden
Symptoms: ['Kompressionsverlust', 'Erhöhte Abgastemperatur', 'Blowby-Spuren am Ventilgehäuse']
Causes: Heißkorrosion (Vanadium/Natrium im HFO), Rotocap-Versagen, Unzureichende Ventilkühlung
Preventive: Valve inspection according to WinGD interval; Rotocap rotation check at each cylinder overhaul; monitor cooling water quality

Common failures & inspection points

Cylinder liner scuffing: Local welding and wear between piston ring and liner inner surface caused by inadequate lubrication or oil film breakdown

Visual inspection of liner for scratches, micro-welding and discoloration; check local surface roughness; hone liner or replace if necessary

Piston crown and ring groove wear: Surface stress, wear and cracks in piston crown and ring grooves require thickness measurements

Use thickness gauge (e.g. Fischer Dualscope MP0); compare with reference values from OM; inspect piston crown for thermal discoloration, cracks and deposits

Fuel pressure anomalies and groove leakage: Excessive/insufficient pressure in common rail system and fuel leakage from injection lines

Check fuel pressure during operation (reference value at R1); monitor fuel return for leaks; observe inspection lines at injectors for leaks

Exhaust temperature irregularities with elevated gas concentration in piston underside: Asymmetrical or unexpected exhaust temperatures downstream of individual cyl

Perform continuous exhaust temperature monitoring per cylinder; initiate cylinder head inspections at temperature differences >30°C; check gas concentration in piston

Servo oil system leakage and FLV/fuel line tightness issues: pressure loss in servo hydraulic system and fuel leak at Fuel Line Valves

Monitor servo oil pressure and flow; visually inspect all fuel lines and valve connections and under pressure; monitor sight glasses
