  • This video is part 1 of rebuilding a Caterpillar D10R dozer blade tilt hydraulic cylinder. We got this hydraulic cylinder 2nd hand in an auction and it has some damage from sitting out in the weather so it needs a complete repair and rebuild. In this video we are starting with the hydraulic cylinder barrel. First is gas axe cutting to remove the mounts, handle and steps on the outside of the barrel. We then setup the cylinder barrel in the lathe for machining out the welds to remove the head flange, barrel end and clevis. We then sand blast and crack test the barrel components ready to be used on the new barrel which we will machine up in Part 2.
    In this video we are using:
    - TM-26120G Centre Lathe
    - WIA 500i Weldmatic welder
    - SBC-990 Industrial Sandblasting Cabinet

    Hey viewers thanks for watching today's video Part 1 of the D10 dozer blade tilt cylinder rebuild series. There is a lot of work in this but for the price we got it was cheaper to rebuild than buying a whole new OEM cylinder 😎👍

      Would you ever go over costs in a video? How much the cylinder cost, how much in materials used, how many hours labour and then compare with new cylinder cost? Would be interesting to know how much your customers are saving. Have you ever had the situation where you have bought a used part to rebuild but then found cracks which made it un-economical to repair?

    For a younger guy, I am envious of your knowledge and ability. In my 50 years in machine shops all around America, I have seen only 3 "naturals" with you, I have seen 4! "Naturals" never have to tell anybody how good they are, it is obvious in their work. I watch your videos in anxiety and your missus does a fantastic job on the videos, the safety man is good also, what a team! Perfection all the way. Thanks for sharing Kurtis. I have been in the plastic mold and progressive die work most of my life and many years in job shop as well. I now work for a construction company (at 80 years old).making new parts to replace obsolete and no longer available escavator and dozer parts. A pleasure to watch you in action!

  • @TrevorDennis100
    @TrevorDennis100 3 года назад +1

    We were using that same type of crack detection at Ford Research & Engineering (UK) 50 years ago. We also used a process called Stress Coat which involved spraying a component with a special coating that was hard and brittle. Then the part was stressed which would reveal weak areas because the stress coat would crack. This was a precursor telling us where to place strain gauges to measure movement on a part by driving the vehicle over special surfaces. This was later superseded by CAE where computer modelling became so good they could predict what would break before they even made it. This would have been 30 years ago (at a guess).

      @@CuttingEdgeEngineering even when I worked for Caterpillar they didn't like to share specifications.
      In the late 70's we had a problem getting replacement pin sets for the earth movers and end loaders. I don't remember why but we decided to start remanufacturing the pins ourselves. We tried several different processes but finally landed on a MIG welding process that had a hard facing flux included in the wire. We perfected the process so well that it gained the attention of Corporate Caterpillar. We gladly explained how we had done our research and overcame our failures. After giving our presentation we got the
      copyright and patent infringement blah, blah, blah. Then came the real meat of the program. Fellows we appreciate your hard work in developing the process but we have one big issue with it all. Can you back off of it for a couple of months so we can sell the pins off the warehouse shelves first? Boy were we relieved! We thought we were getting sacked for sure! Man those were the days. Keep up the fine videos and give the giggling videographer a raise in pay for putting up with you! Be mindful to keep nice cool water in the executive swimming pool too!

    Curtis does an amazing job running such difficult projects alone. As an independent business guy in the trades, I learned what Curtis learned; having a helper is often like being 5 men short! One stupid screw-up can cost a week's profit. Better to do jobs I can handle ALONE than to take on projects that require having Satan's nephew on my payroll. Curtis is skillful, experienced, intelligent, and he wastes no motions. Yes, the outtakes show his frustration, now and again. That's why it's called WORK! Superior videos! Keep up the excellent work.

      @drewbranje6680 3 года назад +2

      @@davidgramsay it is harder in a few different ways. first the material the wire is made from superior materials to the steel it will be fusing to, second the way the grain structure is in the weld is far different to regular steel as the grain of the metal gets massaged and rolled out when it gets manufactured where as welding is more simalar to cast metals due to the way welding processes work, third it is a bit like hardening steel due to the nature of welding it heat treats the weld however this does mean the weld is more brittle as it hasnt been annealed

    • @xaytana
      @xaytana 3 года назад +2

      @@davidgramsay To add to Drew's response, all of this actually depends on composition of the base metal, filler metal, pre-treatment, post-treatment, and how the metals respond to heating and cooling, especially in welding where the heating and cooling are localized to an area and not a full-part cycle like you see in heat treating. Metallurgy and material science are more complex than a one size fits all description of a single occurrence of an application of a presumably known filler on a presumably known metal. Most fillers you use on mild steel will act this way, but the outcome is entirely different if you're welding on a 303 stainless, as that will also be entirely different than welding on an annealed (pre-treated) 304L stainless, and that's before getting into alternative metals like aluminum. So while the response works for mild steel with a typical filler, the response would be incorrect in any other combination of base metal and filler. I also don't agree with the, "... superior materials,' part of the comment, every material has it's use and no material is superior unless you're seeking a very specific attribute of a material; it's similar to the strength argument of materials, there's no one simple answer because 'strength' can have multiple meanings, typically rigid yet brittle or flexible yet doesn't snap as an example, or how much a material can elongate before ripping as another example.
      If you're actually interested in metallurgy and material science, etc., I'd suggest researching it on your own and seeking out someone who has actually studied extensively under the subjects, or just outright studying it yourself. Rather than seeking answers from armchair experts, e.g. RUclips comments and Reddit threads, which is prone to leading to misinformation, e.g. 'superior materials.' You can also judge if someone is an actual expert or an armchair expert by relative knowledge and use of basic grammar, things like proper sentence structure, correct spelling, correct use of punctuation, and correct use of lists; as a truly educated person is typically better composed in communication, as proper education in communication comes alongside proper education in the subject, how one presents themselves and their arguments is important to deducing how knowledgeable they are in general, and thus how knowledgeable they potentially are in a specific subject. Seeking better knowledge also allows you to crosscheck armchair expert knowledge, e.g. 'superior materials' again. At the end of the day, it's better to do your own research using trusted sources, e.g. peer-reviewed studies, that don't spread misinformation.
