What is the process of hard chrome plating?

 Hard chrome plating is a process in which a layer of chromium is applied to a surface to improve corrosion and abrasion resistance, reduce friction, and extend the life of parts used in extreme wear conditions.

Hard chrome plating demonstrates excellent hardness and lubricity, and is the premier engineering choice to reduce friction, minimize wear and prevent galling. These characteristics are applicable for critical engineering applications, including: machine tool cutting surfaces, cylinder bores, strut rods, crankshafts and hydraulic shafts. Hard chrome is also applied to molds because of its low surface energy and resultant release properties. Chem Processing can hard chrome plate steel, aluminum, or copper materials, as well as many exotic alloys.

Hydraulic cylinder rods, bearing fits and seal areas frequently get damaged and worn from heavy use. When no longer functional, a part can be hard chrome plated and polished or ground back to OEM Spec. This process can be repeated multiple times reducing equipment downtime and substantial replacement costs.

40CR ALLOY STEEL SPECIFICATION

  40Cr steel  is a kind of Chinese GB standard alloy steel for engineering and machinery purpose, and one of the most widely used steel grades. For 40Cr material hardness, specifications and equivalent, please see the table below. After quenching and tempering treatment, 40Cr steel has good comprehensive mechanical properties, low temperature impact toughness, low notch sensitivity, good hardenability, and high fatigue strength in cold oil. When water cooling, the complicated shape of the parts is prone to cracks, the cold bending plasticity is medium, and the cutting workability after normalizing is good, but the weldability is poor, should be preheated before welding, and is generally used in the state of quenching and tempering. DATASHEET & SPECIFICATION The tables below list 40Cr alloy steel datasheet and specification including chemical composition, properties and heat treatment, etc. 40CR STEEL CHEMICAL COMPOSITION   Chemical Composition (%) Grade C % Si Mn Cr 40Cr 0.37 – 0.4

Skiving &Roller Burnishing Tube And Honing Tube

Image
Skiving and roller burnishing tube  process provide high quality hydraulic cylinders with final sizing and creates the desired finish pattern on the interior of tubing or cylinder bores. They are used in the manufacturing of  hydraulic cylinders . Compared to honing process, they are 80-90% saving of machine time which reduces tool costs per meter of tube length and produces super finish surface, with a bore tolerance of IT8, thereby reduces the sealing wear making it ideal for pistons. The skiving tool is a multifunctional tool used in the manufacturing of hydraulic cylinders. Skiving is operated like this: Two thin chips are cut at a high feed rate (1-4 mm/rev) while the tool passes through the work piece. This cutting operation determines the finished diameter and tolerance of the hydraulic tube. Surface finish Ra= 4-10 μm (skiving) Skiving has obvious advantages compared with honing: • 80-90% saving of machine time which reduces tool costs per meter of tube length. • Produ

What is Hydraulic Ram Cylinder?

Image
  Hydraulic ram cylinders   are typically used to give vertical motion, including lifting loads in a vertical direction. Such a cylinder is also used to provide the motion in a horizontal direction but needs attention and suitable guides to guide the motion. Single-acting hydraulic cylinders that have no pistons but have large  cylinder rod s are called rams. These rams operate exactly like the conventional single acting hydraulic  cylinders. However, they use large diameter rods in place of pistons and piston seals in their designs. Thus, in place of pistons, rams have high-pressure cap-end ports. They also do not have any low-pressure rod-end ports. Rams are generally cheaper than their conventional single-acting cylinders counterparts.
