Cylinders compact hydraulic test line for high pressure gas cylinders mod. FA consists of a programmed loading/unloading belt that transports the cylinders with a fixed center distance and a three-station hydraulic test.
All our systems are designed according to the customer’s production, in particular this system was created for composite cylinders:
Diameter: 200-406 mm
Length: 1000-2000 mm
It is a compact structure without a loading-unloading manipulator.
The programmed belt is installed on a carriage that moves on a rail and is mobile to allow loading and unloading operations of the hydraulic test.
The hydraulic test consists of an electro-welded profiled iron frame that delineates two areas: the loading/unloading area and the testing area.
To carry the cylinders from one area to another there is a mobile upper carriage equipped with clamps.
The cylinders arrive on the horizontally programmed belt.
They are picked up by a three-station rotating carriage with a hydraulic cylinder locking system.
The carriage rotates 90° thanks to a system with fifth wheels and gearmotor and carries the cylinders vertically with the nozzle facing upwards.
Upper carriage moves to the loading area and collects the cylinders.
Upper carriage then moves towards the testing area where it deposits the cylinders.
The sealing system is screwed onto the internal thread of the cylinders.
Once they are held and screwed, the system proceeds to fill the cylinders with water, then they are put under pressure.
Pressurization occurs thanks to hydraulic pumps or pressure multipliers
Each station is independent and has its own pressure transducer and pressure gauge.
The pressure test takes place at a pressure of up to 500Bar.
The pressure holding time is adjustable via the touchscreen panel on the test line machine.
At the end of the cycle the upper carriage returns to collect the cylinders and rotates them 180° to empty them.
The emptying time is adjustable via the touchscreen panel on the test line machine.
Once the emptying cycle is finished, the cylinders are rotated again by the carriage and brought horizontally and then placed on the programmed belt which takes them out of the system
In the compact hydraulic test line for cylinders and if the cylinder does not pass the test it is declared rejected by the system.
The hydraulic test is closed by protections.
The system is equipped with a hydraulic power unit.
Like all GOMG systems, the hydraulic tester is designed to be loaded onto a container or truck without dismantling it too much thus reducing assembly times.
