Repair DAMAGED Hydraulic Cylinder for CAT 16H Motor Grader | Machining & Welding

  • This video is a job we did to repair a damaged hydraulic cylinder for a Caterpillar 16H Motor Grader articulating cylinder. The piston, bolt and nut are stuck inside the cylinder barrel and caused a bit of damage to the cylinder barrel and rod, so we need to replace the barrel and repair the threads on the rod. First we cut off the oil port on the cylinder barrel, then set up in our lathe and machine off the weld to remove the barrel end. We then make the new barrel which includes drilling the oil port, machining for weld prep, cutting an internal thread and welding the oil port and end cap on to the barrel. We finish off the repair by hand tapping the internal thread on the cylinder rod.
    In this video we are using:
    - BM-63VE Milling machine
    - TM-26120G Centre Lathe
    - WIA 500i Weldmatic welder

      Its easier than it looks. His lathe looks like it has auto shut off at the end of the thread so that makes that bit easier, normally you'd have to be pretty quick on the stop button or lever, digital readouts also make life easier, I've done a little bit of threadcutting on a lathe, good skill to learn. We did 95% of our work on the CNC lathe though, that shit was beyond me, CNC computers confuse the shit out of me

    • @henrydando
      @henrydando ปีที่แล้ว +2

      once you get the hang of it its not too hard. Basically, you using some method to connect the spindle to the movement of the caridge, for example in this video he cut a 12TPI thread so for every one turn of the spindle of the lathe, the threading system on the lathe moves the caridge 1/12 of an inch. You use a form tool to get the right thread shape

Other channels go into such excruciating detail about how they go about setting up a job, clamping it down, dialing it in, why this will work & why that won't, etc. Which is fine if that's what the viewer is into, however, I'm not a machinist and never will be but I'm always curious as to how a technical machining job is accomplished, which you do to perfection.

Winter clothes and learning to control temp is key but beyond that fuck it, no amount of white bullshits gonna stop me from enjoying a steak. I have grown up in both the PNW and also Southern US, its all season weather to run your grill if you prepare and plan accordingly. My parents are from Massachusetts so there is no such thing as too much snow and too cold to run a grill, As my parents said "we bought you heavy clothes for a reason, go put them fuckers on and learn how to cook in all weather." Who fucken says you can't put it on for half hour or so and cook a nice ass grilled piece of meat. It all comes with learning when to give fucks and when to not give a fuck.

    Your Safety Officer is adorable, probably my favourite type of dog (Don't tell our Cairn, love him too lol) and so often misunderstood. With the right upbringing I say even a Dingo or a Hyena could be as loving as a staffie or "pit". Makes me smile so much seeing a doggo happy and in their element (bull breeds suit engineering type environments super well too IMO, they're tough enough to brush off the odd mistake & clever enough to learn from others not to make mistakes too plus they seem to take a genuine interest in what the pack leader is up to. Safety Officer is an ideal post!)
