Line boring and Bore welding CAT 789 Dump Truck suspension part | Sir Meccanica WS2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- In this video we are line boring and bore welding to repair a Caterpillar 789 Dump Truck part. This is the rear strut suspensio rod on the dump truck and the bearing has destroyed the eye. We are using our Sir Meccanica WS2 portable in-line boring and bore welding machine. First we need to grind out as much of the bearing material that is in the eye before setting up and tack welding on the bearing mounts for positioning the line boring machine. We need to line bore out the eye material before bore welding to build up new material and then boring out to spec. The eye is then ready for facing, cutting the chamfers and snap ring grooves before drilling in the holes for the grease port. The job is completed by cleaning up the eye surfaces and press fitting the new bearing into the eye using our hydraulic press.
In this video we are using:
- Sir Meccanica WS2 Portable line boring machine
- WIA 500i Weldmatic welder
- HMP-150T Hydraulic press

@@einzelganger1049 With your manner it's no wonder your an einzelgänger.
@@einzelganger1049 To properly paint would take considerable time, labor, equipment and supplies. And likely not yield much value to the equipment operator vs. getting the part back into service asap.

@@einzelganger1049 "should return it better than he got it" good one. We enjoy comments like these very entertaining 😎👍
What a beautiful ritual to start my friday morning routine: a cup of coffee in my CEE-mug and Kurtis and Karen on YT! What could be better? Have a nice weekend everybody!
Good morning over there mate definitely great way to start a Friday 😎👊💥
I think you mean Karl and Kylie.
WOW its Friday!! I forgot!! Plus its a long weekend now Im extra amped-up.
Yes it is !
Better is an evening can of Heineken
"Nearly about 8 banana's".. That's the kind of engineering measurements I can understand!
😂👌🍌 glad that helped
Only works in Australia when the bananas are upside down
How many millimeters in 8 bananas? And how does that translate into imperial standard? 🤪 Just asking for a uninformed Yank. Lol!
@@ralphsmull7049 As he said - 8 bananas is Imperial standard LOL.
Should properly explain bananas and oranges are often used for measuring in Australia when referring to the defunct Imperial standard as a conversion from the decimal system.
I've been machining over 30 years and that lineboring machine is one of the neatest things I've ever seen.
Isn't it just slots for bore checks slot for dti for cutting tool well engineered bit of kit
Two things, 1 I appreciate how you do things the RIGHT WAY, and 2, you show the part on the vehicle you're repairing so we get a better understanding and not feel like a dumb ass. cheers!!
Excellent idea with the clock in the background!
Yay glad you liked that we had a few viewers comment about seeing that in a timelapse 😁
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering appreciated!!!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering excellent choice of a clock, i might add. german tools rock :D

12:15 am in California and enjoying watching another superb craftsman
Thanks for watching mate 😎👊💥
Yikes I didn't realize it was getting so late! Ah well, time for one more video...
its 1:09 am in California and i have a brisket on the smoker
This guy is a one man army for repairing crazy big metal shit.
Never even heard of a line boring machine till now. That's a pretty neat bit of kit. Put the part on the milling machine? Na, put the the milling machine on the part.
In the oil industry they have "portable milling machines". That's for working on stuff too big to remove and fit in a workshop. ua-cam.com/video/4KuttMB50I4/v-deo.html is a nice example, but I've seen heavier ones. "Portable" is a relative term, here. It's only more portable than an oil rig :-D
Line boring is common in many machinery applications Cars for instance can use them to remachine or alignbore crank and cam bores when those bores get damaged. I have never seen it done before so its a treat to see the set up.
0:52 "When stuff goes wrong and doesn't get caught in time" is pollitically correct way of saying 'it's munted because of rough as guts operators and fieldies that can't diaganose shit'
Struth, some people can't organise a piss up in a brewery.
Munted. I'm learning to talk Oz with this fly casting video.
Or grease shit apparently
Also known as 'bean counter logic.' As in 'why spend 50 cents on a new copper washer when a new engine is only $20,000.'
Thanks for always showing where the parts you repair belong.
You're welcome :)
Absolutely impressed with your attention to detail and overall work ethic. The repair is worth every penny to the client and your great video work provides a clear and accurate record of exactly what you did. Client can never come back and say you did crappy work. Thanks to you and your wife for sharing this excellent work.
Never give up on your dreams, you'll regret it. I was supposed to be a machinist in the US Navy for tanks and personnel carriers, so this was special for me.
Yes..... just watching Curtis has made me a much better and more meticulous machinist. His setup techniques etc. are rally brilliant, and although my own work is much more modest and on a much smaller scale (I'm a gun smith), I have learned so much and been very entertained, by watching a master at work.
Well there is some chatter on some machined surfaces, not dissing, just pointing out that it COULD be better. (cant it always?)
@@74KU
Kurtis would say that it could be better, but we know that it couldn’t, that’s just Kurtis.
Kurt's, what is "pirosity (porosity, perosity?)" and is there a limit on how many times a repair like that can be done?
THIS GENTLEMAN IS THE TOP NOTCH OF THE TOP ,,
love getting on to youtube and seeing new cutting edge engineering vid every week thanks for all the awesome vids.
Hey mate thanks for watching and glad you enjoy the vids 😎👍
These videos, while a bit of a pain to make, are a really good advertisement for your business. The people who pick up the phone should be in no doubt about the quality of the work and way you conduct business. 👌
Spending good money to have it fixed right so it won't happen again is Money in the Bank.
Way back in the Ronald Regan era, I was a machinist in the Navy. Watching this video takes me back to my days of maching raw castings for the main fire pumps on a big-ol-horizontal line boring mill. To me, any tool that gets the job done is the right one. I am oh so impressed with how you postioned the supports for the boring bar. A horizontal mill would not have made a bit of difference to the depth of cut, rpm or feed rate. Sure wish I had one of your machines back on the ship. Well done. Very impressive. Thanks for making this video.
The handy arrows reminded me of when you put "music" up in writing when you add music to the videos. It helps 😀
Thank You Mrs Kurtis for bringing us all along!!!
I think you said your name is Karen, as is my sister,,, not the name for the current times you said.... LOL... You make this channel AWESOME... keep pissing off Kurtis (Carl) so we can all enjoy his misery... hahahaha...
I'm a german IT guy, so I'm quite far away from even touching anything metal of this size :D But nonetheless I love watching your videos because I love the mindset behind. That perfection is absolutely great to see. (Perfection as in "measure twice, cut once" or "do it right, do it once") Please keep them videos coming. Also a big thanks to Karen/Giggles for that great filming & editing! It's a pleasure to watch!
Hey mate what a great comment thanks for taking time to watch and share your feedback we both appreciate it 😎👍
Yeah! Software engineer here as well and I love this kind of stuff. Greetings from Finland!
Controls engineer here, started out in the same trade different industry, didn't like it and moved on. But for some reason still like watching this stuff (I think for the tools, machines and end product). I live 2 to 2-1/2hrs north of where this workshop is
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering how many different sizes of wire do you use in your shop? and i absolutely enjoy your work you do
The WS2 was designed by geniuses to be be used by geniuses. The welding head to be intregrated into the line borer is brilliant
I'm from the UK, my brother works for CAT
(Finnings) he repairs the big dumper trucks and loading shovels. I've got to say what an amazing piece of engineering...I was mesmerised by your skill....a great watch...👍👍
I LOVE the clock in the background. It is a great addition for perspective, especially on the time lapse.
Yeah - looked like about a half hour per boring pass (except maybe for the fine stuff that had to go slower).
People like CCE are true salt of the earth, for they have the integrity and skill sets ,do it right and will not compromise.
The bloopers/outtakes are the icing on the cake.
I love it!
Man, that was intensely cool ! Again, I’m a 68 old man enjoying artistry before my eyes. You are worth the time for me to see this. My best to you and the wife and of course, the safety man !! Thanks
I'm impressed, from the back story last week on how CEE came about and what you guys have put together as a couple (with a little help no doubt from the safety officer), the work ethic of do it right and do it once and the video editing by Giggles (sorry Karen), this channel is a welcome start to a Friday morning. Incidentally I liked the time lapse with the clock in the background.
Hey mate this is such a great comment thanks for watching, supporting and commenting! Cheers
I couldn’t agree more - the addition of the wall clock during the timelapse sections really does illustrate the painstaking work that K&K put into every facet of the jobs.
A truly great channel/duo.👍👍👍
👍
Say it louder for the people in the back!!
As a layperson, I find it amazing you can lay down a layer of new welded steel like that and it has similar properties as the original material. You learn something everyday!
Almost like 3D printing.
I'm the same, and I'm equally impressed. Amazing work hey.
I work for Caterpillar on the manufacturing and machining line! We press in cryogenic temp sleeves everyday on similar applications! Alot of our dozer blade lift hydrolics are small bores like this. Alot of our bores are jackec up in machining and we weld the bores back just to be remachined! Its frustrating to me doing this process when a cryogenic sleeve will serve the same function for a fraction of the labor! Its just going to get jackec up again by poor maintenance practice! Great work here! Love and appreciate your pride in craftsmanship! Only if Caterpillar itself could be so true!!
ColinWatters, it's called wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) and they are "printing" rocket engines: ua-cam.com/video/5AQx6Q3-KnY/v-deo.html

Loved seeing the amount of precision put into this. As a former aviation hydraulics mechanic, it was hard to find guys who double check their work constantly.
dont they look like aft trunnion brgs off a 747
OR EVEN ONCE, TODAY KIDS ARE TAUGHT HOW TO PROGRAM A MACHINE!!!!!! I SOUND LIKE MIKE ROWE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a retired engineer who back in the day got involved in similar work to yourself from time to time and it’s nice to see you being as conscientious as I was. Great job
The last :25 was the cherry on top. Kurtis does have a soft playfull side lmao. Thnx for another great video.
Hahahaa yeah she was bloody meant to keep that footage in the vault 😂
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Sure and we all saw the hot pink scooter!
Admirable attention to detail and an impressive repair sir.
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it
As a Machine Repair apprentice this is an absolute treat to watch. Unbelievable skill set.
every people will be very grateful if there is machinist like this in their town or city, good work mate
Fantastic, get to watch it early again, I'm sure it'll be as awesome as ever, thanks Kurtis and Karen👍🏻
Yeah this was a good one and a nice before and after on it! Enjoy mate
"Silk purse out of a sows ear"! Persistent, clear eyed work. Thanks for the look, always enjoy the three of you.
I think showing the "Boss" at 22:28 was one of the best parts...(Shop Dogs are always a good break from the monotony of work.) - The Outtakes were AWESOME!
It's a Pleasure to watch a Man who really knows what he is doing. Well done Sir
Nice touch with the wall clock in time lapse
You’ve shown us many of your line boring jobs, but this one was specially interesting because of the added details you put in, and the explanations of what you were doing, and why. It’s always a pleasure to watch you at work! Cheers!
Hey mate glad you enjoyed this one and thanks for the great feedback. Cheers, Kurtis
The first half of the video I kept thinking, “but now the hole is going to be too big, won’t it?” About the half way mark my mind was blown. I simply had no idea you could do that, let alone that such an amazing system of boring out and replacing the material existed. Thank you for sharing this, and great job well done!
I am machinist, I enjoy your videos. High standard of quality and workmanship, you do on every job.
Enjoyed the clock in the background.
Love how you used the cordless screwdriver to drill-out those oil-paths instead of some fancy magnetic column drill that takes forever to set up.
Seems to be the motto of your shop: precision where it counts, quick where it doesn't.
And get it done!
Ok, that was a stunning video. This was raw and visceral man, metal and machine. You, sir, are a gem.
Love to see someone doing his job properly. I'm not in your trade, but I appreciate it when people take what they do seriously, and have the knowledge to do so, as well. Cheers to you from Germany, and keep up the great work.
Honest work is always the best work.
What an Friday! Watching you creating some magic, wearing the CEE cap and, I have to add, what a first class packaging, what a style!One must keep the box.
Hey mate that's ultimate CEE viewer style right there haha. Glad you got your merch thanks for the great feedback
Well, considering the welding as a follow-up operation using the same work setup, not having a horizontal mill isn't such a disadvantage for that particular job. Great vid as always!
Yeah you've got that right, the portable WS2 sure makes the setup a breeze
Good point
C.E.E.A. manufacturer of quality steal wool.
Each video I watch I say to myself, 'best one yet' ... then I watch another and I say to myself, 'best one yet' ... great entertainment, very enjoyable to watch.
That's gold!
In case we didn't know where the damage was.... ...

🤣👍 go big or go home hahaa
Kirsten and Karen it’s Such A Pleasure to watch the Work that you do .As far as people fucking up repairs it’s a done thing these days.It’s Nice to see a young Fella Actually doing it Right and what a Job you have done.Love the show and your work together.Billy 👍👍💕💕💯
I have no idea why I find this so fun to watch, but I do.
The explanations of where the bits in for repair are used is great, and the detail of how you are going to progress the work is most impressive, not too much and not too little, just perfect. Thanks Kurtis, Giggler and The Safety Officer.
Sheer magic, one of the few videos i didn't fast forward at any time. Keep 'em coming
He might not be able to talk the talk , but he can definitely walk the walk ! tip my hat to him !
Love the outtakes. Nothing like the human side.
Perfect addition to my breakfast
warm greetigns from Austria 🇦🇹🤙🏼
Greetings mate have a good Friday
It’s going to be a good Friday 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
It's been a good Friday! 😂👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering Right!
We can have the nicest tools around but if there's no integrity by the one handling them, they're worthless. Respect sir!
I don't know why YT recommended this but I found it extremely satisfying!
beauty is in the “EYE” of the beholder.
Looking good! Greetings from The Netherlands.
Good one 😂👍
Sir you broke me. Never anticipated a dad joke here. Well played!
@@brianfeddersen3528 one of the privileges of being a dad 🥸
Great job as usual. I wanna have a t-shirt with "it never can be too tight" on it. Your vids are always a good start of the weekend.
Hey mate thanks will put that in the t-shirt ideas list!
It can never be to tight and let’s just fucken do it are the Little gems in the blooper roll only a true blue Aussie can pull off keep it up jooga
"...it can never be TOO TIGHT" - words to live by
Me: That looks like a pallet out of that cnc machine
Kurtis: this is a pallet out of that cnc machine
😂
hahahaa we knew people would be asking/thinking it 😂👍
That's not a pallet. THIS is a PALLET.
Something not right about the setup: Homie has a helicopter and Kurtis has to make do with a scooter for company transport. Good on you Karen for exercising editorial control so we could witness this !
Now you know who makes the big bucks and it ain't me 😂
You are a great engineering!!!!!!!!! I'll show this video to some idiots here to Greece to learn from you!!!!!! Bravo my friend!!!!!!!!
It’s just amazing to me how good the jobs turn out- I watch this channel and before I know it an hour goes by. Fascinating
Love watching the machining and get a kick out of the bloopers at the end of all of your videos. Keep it up, and can’t wait to see the next one.
What a kick ass demonstration 🤘🏻love watching that line bore rig in action. Does a multitude of different tasks
I,'m impressed! Put another shrimp on the barby!
I don't know why but this is my favorite how to video site.......really, I'm a retired elevator mechanic......big and small.....aircraft to people lifts I built and repaired them !! I just love how Curtis is so damn precise with everything........,cheers to that mate !!! Hard to find these days in America as the blue collar trades need bodies but young men these days don't know how to work hard !!!!
Missed out on first comment, bugger. Now to enjoy the video.
Not far off it mate haha got to be bloody fast these days
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering yeah I know, I was driving and had to pull over to comment lol
I got the merchandise I ordered, in the mail yesterday. Only second time I’ve ordered from a you tube person.
I yelled "Homeless" as soon as he showed on screen... 😁💙
As a metal fabricator of 26 years, I'm always amazed how amazed everyone on the comment section gets. It's cool, but it's certainly not anything new..lol
Your wife is awesome with the camera!!!!!! Being a machinist I really enjoy you, your wife and your mucher he is AWESOME. Thanks a bunch y'all!!!!!!
CEE never fails to amaze me at the sheer amount of skill had in repairing rarely manufactured, really expensive parts. CEE you guys do amazing work and I truly hope you all are paid what you most certainty are worth.
There's a reason he has so much shit and a whole yard small teams dream of just by himself.
Love how you put the clock in the shot. I never knew how long it took to do each job. Keep it up you two.
i know shit about welding and machining but you have my dream job...a one man show, no employees, tons of knowledge and experience and all the machining tools to get damn near anything done. Not to mention a sweet wife to film it all and to top it off, a cool shop dog!!
It always make me smile when you pull out a steel measure.
the clock in the time-lapse is a very nice toutch!
Glad you liked that thanks for watching
Thanks both for another weekly dose of quality. That welder lays that on so smooth.. Gives you a decent base to work on. Fully agree on the new price vs recon /repair economy.
It's not the welder, it's the welding machine that was designed to weld these bores. I am from the old school where we welded the bores up by hand, either by stick welding or by flux core wire !!
Thanks. It's always a pleasure to see someone who is good at what they do on the job.
Never saw this kind of boring before. I thought I was doing good with my Van Norman boring bar working out a bad cylinder in an engine. Love your vids !!!!!!
Everything is just massive in that industry, Such a huge amount of consumables go into an effective repair, A pleasure to watch a no shortcuts taken quality repair. Much respect.
I see that Management has now got a clock on you - not satisfied with the pace or work? Great technical work and great videography too. Thanks for making these videos.
Wow, a great example of fix-it boys with big toys. So professional and then the outtakes. Pretty funny. It was an interesting thing to watch. Protect those ears and lungs. Lots of dust and humming tools which can hurt over time, all the best.
A dog is wonderful creature is always happy to see you.
Always impressed by your work. I do aerospace stuff on the daily so while I cut metal, you're in a whole different world and it's awesome to see.
Whose idea was it to put the clock in thee background for the time lapse? That was pure genius! These videos must be good for business. I mean how could clients not be impressed by your attention to detail and aversion to the shortcuts that some competitors apparently use? Perhaps they should call themselves CCE (Cutting Corners Engineering). I'm always impressed with the camerawork and editing with your videos. You make a good team.
that was all Karen, she's seen a few comments from viewers asking for something like that
that pressing of the bearing in the end was the most impressive part.
Watched and enjoyed this 3 months ago. It’s great being old and bonkers cos here I am enjoying it all over again.
That particular piece you repaired in this video, I weld them when they are raw from casting. Interesting to see what it looks like in final form and see how it preforms over time.
what does this particular peice do?
@@B1gDaddy1 In the video he shows it on the back of a large rock truck on the back axle where the air bag sets.
nice job....
as an old machinist i really enjoy watching your repair vids, they are really great....
Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share them 😊
I thought i knew a lot but after watching your videos I'm amazed at how little I knew.
I am in absolute awe at your skill Curtis🇬🇧🇬🇧👋👋👋👋👋
Some day when I grow up, I’d like to know half of what you do! Great work as always. Keep the family happy!
“It spits sh*t everywhere” - now that’s a hoody waiting to be made!
i have a new passion. line boring. i didn't even know what line boring was until i watched these vids but I am now hooked!!
