  • This video is a job we did to repair a damaged hydraulic cylinder rod and eye for a Caterpillar 631 Wheel Tractor Scraper apron hydraulic cylinder. The rod has scratching and the chrome is damaged so needs to be replaced. The cylinder rod eye is also out of shape and needs to be reclaimed to fit the bushing. To start, we machine and part the eye off the cylinder rod before reclaiming the eye by boring out in our milling machine, welding up and boring back out to spec. We also install the new bushing by press fitting in our 150T tonne hydraulic press. We machine up the new cylinder rod using 3” inch diameter induction hardened chrome bar. We need to machine both ends of the cylinder rod, the first end we are machining to fit the piston and cutting the external thread for the nut. The other end of the rod we also machine to fit the original rod eye, which is then MIG welded on to complete.
    In this video we are using:
    - TM-26120G Lathe
    - BM-63VE Milling machine
    - HMP-150T Hydraulic press
    - WIA 500i Weldmatic welder

    Hey viewers sorry for the late upload today we had a RUclips glitch but it's worth the wait! There is a lot happening in this video. During the job we can't spend too much time explaining every step, so just drop any questions you've got in the comments. How much does it cost? A new rod is about $6800 and we do the repair for less than a quarter of that 😎👍 And next time I will get it in one take for sure! 😂

    Back when I was laying a lot of bead, we'd peen the hell out of new weld, or use needle guns to take the stress out of the weld while it was still hot. I'm guessing induction hardened 4140 might be a bit less prone to stress deflection, but there must be some issue with displacement sometimes.

    • @CuttingEdgeEngineering
      @CuttingEdgeEngineering  3 года назад +5

      Hey mate yeah on larger dia rods when heat is sucked out quicker we do use the needle scaler to avoid stress fractures. This sort of job it's not necessary
