What Are Common Problems Associated with Hydraulic Systems?

Hydraulic equipment usually has a few common problems if the hydraulic components are not properly maintained.

Noise

If there is an abnormal noise coming from your hydraulic motor, this can be a sign of an issue. Noise is usually caused by hydraulic fluid air contamination. As the air compresses or decompresses, it will make a loud banging noise in the hydraulic system.

Slow operation

A decrease in machine production is another problem that people see in hydraulic machines. This is usually a sign the machine has a leak in a hose or in the internal pump, control valves, or actuators, indicating that repair may be needed.

Degradation of hydraulic fluid

Hydraulic fluid can degrade when it reaches high temperatures of usually more than 180°F (82°C). High temperatures can not only degrade hydraulic fluid, but also damage seals within the overall hydraulic system which decreases hydraulic fluid power.

Why is Rumpke a Hydraulic & Machining Expert?

Properly functioning hydraulic cylinders and machinery are a core element of our waste machinery and vehicles, so it naturally follows that we're also an expert in hydraulic and machining repair and distribution!

FAQs - Fairfield Hydraulics & Machining

At their most basic, hydraulic power systems such as amusement park rides and adjustable office chairs use liquid/oil to transmit power. This is in contrast to pneumatic systems like air compressors and tire pumps. So hydraulic repair addresses any issues in components and operation that hinder the generation of fluid power.

 

  • Contaminated fluids, where corrosive foreign particulates can scratch up the interior of a cylinder or eat away at seals and fittings
  • Damaged seals and fittings, making a hydraulic system unable to maintain correct internal operating pressure
  • Side loading, where hydraulic cylinders are installed off-kilter from a specifically intended optimal axis
  • Piston damage, due to a loose nut, contaminated fluid, or side loading
  • Variations in cylinder pressure, resulting in unreliable conveyance of liquid force and power
  • Physical damage, such as externals dents, bends, or cracks in any component of a hydraulic system

Machining repair refers to the maintenance and repair of any parts and equipment used in factories, workshops, and other business settings to augment or replace human labor (often colloquially referred to as “automation”). Examples of such machinery include packaging machines, laser cutting and engraving machines, and CNC (for computer numerical control) lathes. Clients in every industry rely on machining repair, including the automotive, aerospace, industrial supply, durable and non-durable goods manufacturing, and printing spaces.

  • Overheating, usually caused by a lack of lubrication
  • Rust, resulting from excessive humidity. Gone undetected, it will corrode machines and cause larger issues over time.
  • Worn or cracked belts, caused by contamination, overheating, misalignment, or normal wear and tear. Will make pulley systems operate less effectively.
  • Pump and valve issues such as in hydraulic systems
  • With CNC manufacturing systems, you can also run into issues like:
  • Improper settings or tools, resulting in chattering, rough edges, visible cutting marks and raised edges
  • Improper programming, where the core coding for the creation of a product is incorrectly or shoddily inputted

The waste and recycling industry makes prolific use of hydraulics, such as with rear-load garbage trucks that collect and compact residential trash or with dump trucks that constantly lift and lower their high-volume open-box beds. So we have to be hydraulic pros when it comes to the right tooling, parts, and operation of your machinery.

We’ll make sure your equipment runs to OEM specifications every time. We also have established and maintained good relations with several major brand manufacturers, a further testament to our work.

Of course! Regular maintenance is a key part of detecting issues as they arise before they become bigger problems and making sure that your hydraulic systems and machinery run smoothly and effectively, for as long as possible. If you need help coordinating a maintenance schedule, call us, we can help.

This depends on how extensive the damage to the pump and/or its correlating parts is. Rest assured, our prices for hydraulic repair and parts replacements are highly competitive. Call us about setting up an inspection, so we can give you a free, customized quote.
