Hydraulic Hoses & Fittings

HOSES, ACCESSORIES & HYDRAULICS

Today’s technology demands flexible conduits offering high-pressure resistance, vacuum tightness, thermal stability and corrosion resistance. TBJ AFRICA has tried to satisfy all of these requirements by working with leading manufacturers in this field.

A rigid piping system is generally subjected to pressure, temperature and corrosion. In addition to these, a flexible conduit has to provide permanent flexibility in one or several directions. Therefore, the quality and operational efficiency of the flexible elements within a piping system are of the greatest importance.

TBJ AFRICA is also working with a group that specialises in the design and development, manufacturing and reconditioning of hydraulic cylinders pumps, valves and motors serving the mining, construction, earthmoving and steel-making industries.

HYDRAULIC CYLINDER SERVICES

TBJ AFRICA are committed to providing our customers with world class service in the hydraulic and pump industry thereby also contributing to the success of our customers. We work closely with our customers to identify any actual or potential problems with components, and thereafter to provide realistic and cost effective solutions in Africa.

Our manufacturing partner has state of the art facilities and the capabilities to manufacture and repair cylinders ranging from 40mm to 1000mm in diameters and up to 14 meters in length.

Their continuous drive to improve quality and service is reflected in the following:

• Hydraulic Stripping Bench.
• Hydraulic Assembly Bench
• PLC Based Testing Facility – this allows for testing of cylinders with strokes of up to 7.5m at up to 700 bar.

The manufacturer is currently an approved supplier to the following OEM’s in Southern Africa:

• KOMATSU                 * Liebherr
• Sandvik mining and construction, surface and underground.
• Hitachi * Barlow Cat
• P&H / Joy mining * Bucyrus-DBT

SERVICE EXCHANGE

Our manufacturer carries a large variety of service exchange units which varies from opencast to underground equipment. They are also committed to carrying stock, if contract agreements with our customers are in place. This will however be discussed should the need arise.

TESTING FACILITIES

After the assembly the hydraulic components are thoroughly tested on test benches with no human intervention. A test certificate accompanies every hydraulic component. If necessary the final product will be coated with Tectile to prevent rust during the shipping/transport period as well as crated.

1. Cylinder testing – capable of testing cylinders at 700 bar with variable speed control up to 20m.
2. Single acting cylinder test bench
3. Computerised pump test benches–165Kw&74Kw Capable of testing components up to 700LPM and 400 bars pumps, valves, motors and brake for testing of wheelmotors

Hydraulic Cylinder Stripping Bench

The hydraulic stripping allows cylinders to be stripped horizontally ensuring that there is no chance of secondary damage occurring to the cylinder components during the stripping process. This system eliminates the risk of any secondary damage occurring when assembling cylinders.

PLC Based Cylinder Test Bench

The system is designed to test cylinders independently of a human operator. Once the test has been aborted it is impossible for the operator to print a test certificate until the unit has been retested.

PLC Test Bench Specifications

• Testing of cylinders independently of human intervention
• Automatic test abort if bypass occurs or stroke length is out of specification parameters
• Only successful tests can have a test report printed
• Test pressure up to 700 bar
• Cylinder stroke up to 7.5 m
• Cylinder diameter up to 0.8 m
