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

Thread cutting on a lathe still seems like a dark art to me. I'm astonished how easy you make everything look.

@HotForgeChaos Жыл бұрын

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 Жыл бұрын

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

The thing I like most about your channel is you explain what's needed then get to the machining. 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. Thanks!

@from the dark side of the moon Its never too cold to grill or run a smoker dude. I've dug my grills and smoker out of 2 to 5 feet of snow and had ribs, brisket, steak, or anything off a grill and even done it for New Years parties with friends. 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.

I thought you were going to tell us that the cylinder was full of spiders. I'm glad that it wasn't full of spiders. Excellent video, thank you for all the cool content you guys supply!

I cleaned out an oil bath air filter on an old Cat D5 recently. It WAS full of spiders. The fact that they were dead - drowned in oil - didn't make it much better really.

How that huge bolt went inside miraculous things. I never ever see in my career

@nameofthegame9664 3 жыл бұрын

The bolt holds the piston to the piston rod so it was always inside the cylinder. It just came lose and made a mess out of the piston when they tried closing it.

Really interesting, I used to go to work with my dad and would watch the guys build and assemble all sorts of things, from the smallest crane buckets, to barge ribs to buckets you could drive a dump truck in, from about the age of 10 I wanted to be a machinist, but things steered me other ways, I envy you my friend.

You always do great work! I seriously doubt that you've got any real competition! Most will just cobble stuff together and call it good enough. You actually do it right, maybe even better than the factory. Love watching an actual pro at work! Thanks for doing whatever it takes to get these videos out! Much appreciated! :)

Growing up everyone was so afraid of our shop dogs Hooker and Hashbrown but all I remember is them being so loving and Hash would bark at me if I climbed up on any of the equipment or climbed over the back fence. She was always telling on me! But sooo sweet. Unless you are a coyote, cat. Then she was not so nice.

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!)

What I used to do to our Rottweilers who loved to pull on stuff you held on to. I would make a squeeky noise and run my fingers down the toy until it just tickled his nose. Oh Boy would he growl and get upset and shake his head real hard. He loved it!! We had 3 . 2 girls and a 145 lb flat headed boy. Nothing ever left the yard. Such great dogs!
