Hydraulic Remanufacturing and Other Machining Services
When the work you need to complete relies on complex machinery with many smaller parts, it’s critical that each component operates at full capacity. CB HYMAC is a proud division of Cleveland Brothers, your local Cat® dealership, and we can manufacture individual components to repair or replace your hydraulic cylinders, motors and pumps. With a large machining capacity that can apply to components up to 11 feet in width and seven feet in height, we have a number of important servicing capabilities to suit your precise requirements.
Hydraulic Machining Servicing Capabilities at CB HYMAC
We are an official Cat Component Rebuild Center, and we don’t consider any alternative to providing repairs and rebuilds completely certified to the highest Cat standards. We’re proud of our superior knowledge of Cat equipment, and our highly-skilled experts regularly apply that information to components from other machinery manufacturers as well.
Our extensive list of hydraulic remanufacturing capabilities includes:
- Boring – We offer turning and boring up to 48”. If your equipment requires it, we can add metal to the inside of your worn or damaged bores using a welding process. When we do, we follow with precision machining so that a new bearing or pin can be properly press fitted. We offer repair bores from 1.25” to 16”, and we work on block, counter, block align and cylinder boring.
- Reconditioning – We can recondition various machine parts for optimal performance, including hitch pins, differential supports and pinion housings.
- Honing – We offer honing machine services when necessary, including precise valve honing.
- Milling – Our Summit Mill machine gives us a range of 11 feet wide by seven feet high.
Other important hydraulic remanufacturing capabilities we have at CB HYMAC are grinding and polishing, lathe work, and block resurfacing. Our certified MagnaFlux testing allows us to inspect even your most sensitive equipment and identify defects that could keep you from important progress. Overall, we can work on a single part or perform extensive hydraulic remanufacturing focused on long-run production — we’ll get the job done no matter how big or small.
We also take advantage of Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machining capabilities. In this particular manufacturing process, computerized devices execute a wide range of precise cuts to manufacture a specific component or product. This allows for the quick removal of metal material in large amounts, and it’s a highly accurate operation that can be applied repeatedly for a quick turnaround. This is an ideal process for various types of substrates, and it allows for scalable volumes from one to one-hundred thousand.
WHY REMANUFACTURED PARTS?
Remanufacturing is the industrial process of restoring malfunctioning or failing equipment and machinery to its original, like-new performance. During remanufacturing tasks, professionals dismantle the components, restore or replace parts as needed, install the latest firmware, test each individual part to ensure proper performance, and rebuild the hydraulic parts and equipment to their original design specifications.
With remanufacturing, hydraulic parts and machinery are expected to perform at their peak performance. Remanufacturing is a practical solution many companies are utilizing because it helps reduce and streamline machine repair costs, determines and resolves issues that reduce equipment dependability and reduces costly downtime.
REMANUFACTURING PROCESS AND BUILD OUT CAPABILITIES
At CB HYMAC, our technicians follow a detailed remanufacturing process to inspect and restore hydraulic machine parts to their original operational condition. This extends its lifespan, improves dependability and improves overall performance. The process includes:
- Unit disassembly: Once our team receives your hydraulic equipment, we assign a bar code for easy tracking and repair throughout the hydraulic part remanufacturing process, and to monitor its repair history and order statuses. Then, the unit is disassembled, cleaned, and upgraded to adhere to OEM specifications.
- Component replacement: After each part has been disassembled, our technicians will thoroughly inspect every piece, perform analysis as needed, and rebuild damaged or outdated circuit boards and components.
- Dynamic functional testing: To evaluate the hydraulic machine’s current operational status, we test the machinery according to OEM specifications using the latest testing equipment available.
- Environmental testing: Along with dynamic functional testing, our technicians also perform extensive environmental testing to identify any additional issues not found in previous inspections and prevent premature failure.
- Final quality inspection: Once the remanufacturing process has been completed by our professionals, a team of qualified quality control inspectors will clean and conduct a final inspection on the unit to ensure the remanufacturing process has been completed according to our high standards.
