How to Choose Servo and Rexroth proportional valve Repair Facilities

Technical expertise is critical in servo and proportional valve repair and very few companies are qualified to do it properly. It is a service that helps dealers save their end-user customers money by repairing the Rexroth pump and proportional valve, rather than replacing them, a more expensive proposition.

 

The complexity and cost of repairs make finding the right servo valve repair provider key and right because your customers can't waste time and money on shoddy repairs. Since machine failure can disrupt production and cause critical delays, taking the time to select a qualified and experienced repair center can help ensure servo and proportional valve repair is as reliable and efficient as possible with Rexroth dealer

.

 

When a customer needs quality hardware and proportional valve repair, here are some qualities to look for in order to find the best supplier for your customer's needs.

 

Quality No. 1: Expert technicians and quality teams

When considering a repair facility, dealers should verify that the company employs factory-trained and IFPA-certified technicians to service leading lines such as Eaton/Vickers and Bosch/Rexroth. The repair facility will ultrasonically tape and clean each valve, measure and inspect for wear, and verify proper bushing-to-pulley ratio.


Distributors should also verify that the repair facility has advanced equipment such as precision servos, proportional flow and pressure test benches that are fully controlled and recorded via high-speed data acquisition systems of bosch hydraulic pump. Test benches need to be multifunctional, making them versatile for all different types of controls. The stands will be equipped with laboratory grade sensors, transducers and flow meters for highly accurate test results.

 

Quality #2: Fast delivery

Speed ​​is an important quality in a repair service. Some can provide a full quote and service report within 3-4 days of receipt.

 

In cases where rush service is required, some repair services line up incoming rush shipments for processing sometime the same day (provided the repairs arrive early enough in the day). This allows time for evaluation and usually provides a quote the same day. Top-tier repair shops will offer 24-hour expedited/express service on most individual items for a small fee in addition to the quoted price.

 

Quality No. 3: Evaluation Fee

Most reviews should be free. Only special items that require repair or the need for multiple machines should incur an appraisal fee. Until then, the customer should only expect to be charged for items returned without repair.

Many companies promise "free estimates." Dealers should check to see if the repair service will perform a full diagnosis, which often allows them to accurately predict cost and ensures customers operate at proven costs rather than revised rates if unforeseen circumstances arise.

 

Quality No. 4: Detailed Quotes

Distributors must request a completed service evaluation form with the customer's (Distributor) logo/brand to present to the end user. This model should include a root cause analysis, repair details, and suggested preventive and predictive maintenance recommendations.

 

Quality No. 5: Dealers Brand

It is unusual, but some repair services will remove their branding and incorporate the customer (dealer) logo or information for display to the end user. This service helps dealers earn a "go to" reputation for this highly specialized technical service.

 

9 questions for repair service companies

Evaluation of servo and proportional valve repair service? Here are 9 questions to help you decide if it will meet your needs.

 

 

 

Question #1: How long did it take for the facility to repair the servo valves?

Question No. 2: Who are the previous customers for the installation servo valve repair?

Question #3: How long have servo valve technicians been working for an installation?

Question #4: What type of repair and calibration equipment is in the facility?

Question 5: Do you have the drive electronics specifically designed to test all functions of the servo valve or drive electronics?

The Effects of Summer Heat on a Hydraulic Fluid

As the summer heat rises in large facilities, businesses using fluid power systems must take steps to ensure their fluid power equipment is equipped to handle the high temperatures.   While cold weather is responsible for some liquid power system failures, hot weather has its own drawbacks.   By understanding how heat affects your fluid power system and preparing your fluid power systems for the summer season, you reduce risks to your hydraulic equipment that can lead to costly downtime and increased maintenance demands. In this article, you will find preparation information and tips to help you understand and mitigate the effects of heat on Rexroth valve hydraulic fluid . It is important to understand viscosity. Be sure to read and understand the viscosity chart for your oil to understand how oil viscosity changes at different operating temperatures.   The viscosity of petroleum-based hydraulic oil decreases with increasing temperature. This reduces its a...

3 Directional Control Valve Problems & Fixes

  Malfunctioning Direct Control Valves (DCVs) can cause problems in your customer's hydraulic system. You can quickly fix some DCV problems when the hydraulics are online. This article provides information on 3 DCV-related issues that the end user should be aware of. There are many ways DCVs can reduce system performance. The most common are sticky/non-slip, internal leaks, and external leaks. Problem #1: sticks/doesn't convert Most DCV valves use a sliding spool/bore design. When the valve is stuck, the spool cannot change its positions when the actuator is using normal force. Various factors can cause this sticking, including contamination, sediment, mechanical failure, or actuator failure. Let's take a look at these common causes. radioactive contamination When solid particulate contamination occurs between the orifice and the spool, the normal amount of force required to move the spool increases beyond the limits of the actuator. The spool gets stuck and will not move u...

Understanding variable displacement pumps

Almost all hydraulic applications use hydraulic pumps. The pump performs the task of converting mechanical energy into hydraulic energy. Take reservoir fluid and transfer it to other system components through pipes. From simple hand pumps to complex piston and gear pumps, you can find many classifications of hydraulic pump . A manual pump requires mechanical force to start the process, while complex pumps use electric motors to actuate hydraulic pumps. Forestry equipment, mining machinery, excavators, dump trucks, cranes, fireworks, loaders, etc. They use hydraulic pump applications. Positive displacement and non-positive displacement are the two main classifications of hydraulic pumps. Non-positive hydraulic pumps produce a continuous flow and a positive displacement pump produces a constant flow approximate to a constant speed regardless of pressure changes. Here, we will discuss a specific positive displacement pump called variable displacement pump. A variable displacement pump...
