4 tips to decrease your Hydraulic Cylinder Failure Costs

As a item for consumption faction, hydraulic cylinders are more or less as common as pumps and motors are mostly combined. If you are operating a lot of hydraulic equipment’s, it’s likely to facilitate cylinder repair expenditure is a important part of your total operating costs.

In 2014 some studies says, up to 25% of mechanical equipment failures are due to the failures of design. Whether we apply this with hydraulic cylinders, then lots of four hydraulic cylinders are not exactly made for the application through which they’re operating.

It’s not meaning that the cylinders aren’t doing their job of it – they are not with a sustainable service period. If your hydraulic cylinder not working well, you may follow these below services for working it fine. Here we will discuss below the 4 issues that in common for each cylinders

1. Banting of Rods

The Bending of cylinder rods caused by less in used diameter of the rod or strength of material used, improper cylinder mounting, etc. In various cases, the rods are successfully straightened and re-used.

2. Rod Finish

Finishing of cylinder surface rod is an important outcome resting on the existence of the rod seal. If the surface is low roughness, then used seal life be able to be compact as a consequence of poor lubrication. On change of the surface lubricant from lower standard to a higher standard the treatment may solve the issue.

3. Ballooned Tubes

This ballooning of the hydraulic cylinders is generally caused by used low quality wall surface of the cylinder’s operating pressure. It caused whenever lenience between the used piston seal on the cylinder and tube wall is lost and the fluid inside it flows from bypass the seal.

4. Insufficient Bearing Area

If bearing’s outer side areas of cylinders are bands within the gland and resting on the piston are insufficient to effectively prop up the side might transfer to the cylinder, there are an excessive load is located on the rod and piston seals. Then bend of the seals and ultimately, their early breakdown.

Telescopic Cylinders & Hydraulic Cylinders: What and how?

The Telescopic Cylinder is a linear motor which is used for enabling linear movement. Working either with the help of liquid pressure (hydraulic cylinder) or with the help of compressed air (pneumatic cylinder), the main advantage of putting these kind of cylinders in use is that they are space convenient. Another important feature of telescopic cylinder is its simple structure which makes its maintenance easy. Depending on the number of rods in the telescopic design, the telescopic cylinder can be called as an n-stage telescopic cylinder (where n is the number of rods in the cylinder).

Single Action Telescopic Hydraulic Cylinder

The linear motor which works with the help of liquid working substance like oil is a hydraulic cylinder. The design of a hydraulic telescopic cylinder involves a bottom end and a rod-end, both of which are sealed to avoid leakage of the working substance. The rod-end has the series of connected hollow rods which can be collapsed one into another like in a telescope. The hollow rods consecutively get larger in size as they move towards the bottom end.

There are two designs in hydraulic telescopic cylinders: Single Acting cylinders and Double Acting telescopic cylinders. In the single-acting telescopic cylinder, the hydraulic pressure acts in only one direction which is the direction in which the cylinder extends. In the other direction, gravity or any other external force acts to contract the cylinder. In a double-acting telescopic cylinder, on the other hand, the hydraulic power acts in both directions of extension and contraction. There are other designs in the hydraulic cylinders. These include cable cylinders, plunger cylinders and diaphragm cylinders. Each of these designs possess its own specialty.

Impart Your Machines The Power To Work With Power Pack

The Power Pack is a part of the machine that generates energy and converts the generated energy into the form that is useful for the functioning of the machine. In general, power packs are regarded as the ‘generator’ part of the machine that generate energy required for the working of the actuator or the motor part of the machine. The generator and the actuator parts of the machine, put together, are called as the power train. A power train can be described as all the components of a machine that generate the energy required and deliver the generated energy for the working of the machine. That is, a power train is the framework that transforms the stored energy into the kinetic energy for the purpose of movement.

Power Pack

The generator part can either consist of a rotating arrangement, where the rotational energy is converted to fluid power, or a piston-rod arrangement which pushes the working substance to give out the required work. The former of the above-mentioned cases resembles a hydraulic power pack where the working substance is liquid like oil. In hydraulic power packs, the generated energy is first converted into rotational energy and then to fluid power. This fluid power is used in performing works like moving of pistons (like in a linear actuator) and lifting of weights.

The principle difference between the power pack and other parts of the power train is that a power pack can be conveniently detached from the rest of the machine and can be replaced by another power pack while the former is being repaired. This saves a lot of time and money that would have been invested had the detachment been difficult. Power packs are used in military vehicles and instruments because of this convenience. An important characteristic of industrial power packs is durability and the ability to work for long hours. The hydraulic power packs are effective as in that the working substance, which is oil, is less compressed and hence gives a greater output work.

Two types of power packs are generally available. They are: DC power packs and AC power packs. The DC power packs, also known as compact power packs, run on direct electric current. These employ batteries as their source of energy. The AC power packs run on alternating current energy mode. The AC power packs are used for heavy load works like the lifting of cars, dock leveling, etc. The general capacity of the hydraulic AC power pack is 1 HP and the general flow rate of the fluid (working substance) out of the reservoir is 300 liters per minute.

Tapping Machine And Hydraulic Cylinders: For Efficiency And Precision

A Tapping machine is a device used in making screw threads internally. Nearly all tapping machines provide specially designed bearings, strong motors and electrical components for fine precision during tapping.

Tapping-Machine

Hydraulic cylinders are mechanical engines that are used in moving and governing forces that are in one direction via unidirectional strokes. These cylinders have tubes, pistons, and rams, seals and head glands which are robust and intact.

Extra attachments to the Tapping machine –

• Coolant System
