Hexadyne P 60 aircraft engine, 2 cylinder 4 stroke aircraft engine.

Hexatron Engineering - Introduced their new Hexadyne P60 aircraft engine at Airventure. The twin cylinder 797 cc, opposed four stroke air cooled engine produces 60 hp. at 5750 rpm.

According to the factory, advantages of the Hexadyne engine design include an engine management system, for better fuel economy. In line cylinders which eliminate a "rocking couple vibration" for smoother running and less wear. Short push rods eliminating the need for hydralic lifters.

A low compression ratio 9.0 to 1 for longer engine life. Four valves per cylinder for better heat dissipation. Plain bearings are used in the journals, for less weight, and economy of replacement. Air cooling for superb heat dissipation. Both cylinder, crankcase halves, and cylinder heads are machined in  gravity cast permanent steel molds for reproducable geometry. 

The engine mount used on the Hexadyne P60 uses a 4 point dyna-focal mount coming of the rear of the engine similar to that used in conventional aircraft. 

Currently the prototype engine has over 800 hours of bench testing and 100 hours of running on a prop stand. According to the factory 100 engines are currently under production.
