Hydrotechnik UK delivers over 20 fluid power test rig projects during 2016
The custom-made 3m2 enclosed testing area was built using 304 stainless steel. An accessible door and inspection windows makes it easy to check for any visual leaks from the cylinder.
After installation, Hydrotechnik UK carried out specific tests to ensure the system worked to the required specification; testing the pneumatic cylinders with the test assembly and ensuring that the hydrostatic test rig was fit for purpose and ready to operate.
Working together
Richard Price, managing director of Hydrotechnik, said: “Our test rigs can help companies using pumps and other components in their quality control and on production lines. This particular case enabled accurate and thorough testing of cylinders to ensure they could be installed into drive systems. This was achieved by our highly skilled engineers working closely with the manufacturer.”
The pressure test rig has become an integral aspect of product testing; enabling a higher volume of cylinders to be repaired and fitted back into drive systems.
