Hydraulic Cylinder Rod Eye Removal and Reinstall - Machining and Welding

I have teamed up with a very reputable hydraulics shop in the last few months. This is one of the jobs we got in. After they tried to remove the pistons, they decided to take a different approach. Not something you would usually do, but if you force the piston off you run the risk of damaging the threads. If that happened, the rod or piston or both would need to be replaced.
Instead of risking this costly repair, the decision was made to have me cut them off. Once removed, the seals were replaced and reinstalled on the shaft. Then I went about welding them back on.
A totally unconventional repair, and probably something that Kurtis @CuttingEdgeEngineering will criticize heavily. But it was an option that wouldn't bankrupt the customer, and gets him back to work quickly.
Topper Machine LLC is an entirely manual machine shop located in Spooner, WI. Our videos will highlight some of our shop work as well as the sawmill we built in the shop and our A.D. Baker steam engine, and others we work on.

The size and magnitude of these repairs are really impressive. You must be exhausted at the end of the day hauling all these heavy things around. Although many viewers will never work on such large projects the basic procedures can be applied to smaller items in need of repair. Very instructive video and thank you for the time and effort that goes into making them.

I have struggled with this one for a few reasons. First was my terrible Internet service, uploads for 15 minute videos was 12-16 hours. That one got fixed recently. The second struggle was that most people don't have the attention span for more than about 8 minutes anymore. I've read lots of studies on this. Apparently the studies were wrong then it comes to manual machining. Thanks for watching.

This reminds me of my apprenticeship days. The shop I worked for would get all kinds of crazy stuff in for us to repair or fabricate. I’ve always been a manual machinist. Any shop I worked for since my apprenticeship always seemed excited that I could run their manual equipment so I never had much of a chance to learn CNC. I’m a terrible welder though. Great video!!!

Nice of you to take the time to make a video. When finding the center of a circle with a DRO. Use your edge finder on the first side and zero your axis then go to the other side then touch your 1/2 button then touch your axis again when you return to center your DRO will read zero. Do the same for your other axis and you will have a perfect center. Jack, Heavenly Machining.

This was a very interesting video showing an unconventional way of undertaking a difficult repair. I have a tip for you. I was recently watching a video where the guy was doing plasma cutting, MIG welding, arc gouging and arc welding. He had his camera behind an auto-darkening welding lens and the video really showed up the various processes very well. It showed a first-hand look at the processes, just like the operator would see. It could be something you might want to look into. All the best from Queensland Australia.

I've also heard that a welding arc can damage the CCD in a camera. No idea if true, but I think a helmet (or just the module from a helmet!) could certainly be a good thing to do. Could also protect camera from accumulation of vaporized metal and such from the welding process.

@lwilton
@lwilton 2 года назад
Josh, you have your audio level recorded (at some point in the video, maybe all of it) a good bit loud. The "Stats for Nerds" on this video reports: Volume / Normalized: 100% / 37% (content loudness 8.7dB) What this means is because you recorded 8.7dB too hot, RU-vid has cut the volume down to a maximum of 37% of the recorded volume. This actually makes the output volume a bit low. Ideally you want Content Loudness to be 0dB or a little bit below that. Don't go way low, since RU-vid won't increase the volume if it is too low.

maybe invest in a rotator if you do lots of rod repairs

You don't need to cut it with the bandsaw you can cut it a little more heat it up a little bit and I'll fall it off

This is friction welded, meaning that it is welded all the way through. It had to be cut off.

Is Kurtis the good of repairing rams. No he’s just one of thousands round the world that does it. He seems a bit of a smug know all if you ask me.

Just a question. Would it not be better for that under cut to be closer to the treaded insert to get the weld to start just shy of the the threaded insert. That way tje weld be be a significantly higher % of the diameter of the shaft.

I'm curious. Why not use a coaxial indicator to center the head in the mill?

If you turn the coolant off as you're cutting you'll see it smoke as soon as you break through to the hydraulic fluid that's in there

Safety first. Please, please stop the machine while changing the tools. It is nothing but fun if (and when) that tool isn't far enough from the rotating object and catches in there. Worse yet, one might drop it somewhere but not in the QCTP.
