Making the NEW Cylinder Barrel! | Hitachi ZX470 Cylinder Rebuild | Part 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 вер 2023
- We've got the damaged hydraulic cylinder disassembled now it's time to make the new barrel! This video is Part 2 of rebuilding a stick (dipper arm) cylinder off a Hitachi ZX470 excavator. In this video we show the complete process of making a new cylinder barrel including machining apart the old barrel before machining and welding together the new barrel. We also show fitting on the head flange using an interference fit, pressing out the old bushings with our 150T hydraulic press and honing out the heat affected zone in the new barrel! Stay tuned for the next video of this cylinder rebuild where we make the new piston and reassemble the cylinder!

Hello Queensland........thanks for another great video, cheers from the Other 'Sunshine State' Paul

You spun the barrel in the lathe, you didn't flip it.
Have an awesome weekend guys, cheers for the great content.
Anyone else unable to LEAVE a comment other than a reply????
As long as I got here so early tonight, I'll say this. As an engineer, I can't begin to tell you how much I respect Curtis' knowledge and capabilities. I don't give that out lightly. It's a rarity, and you're quite the rare breed. These videos are the highlight of my week. Thanks.
hey mate thanks very much I appreciate that 👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering I got up in the middle of the night to watch this. LOL Cheers.
*Kurtis
@@teeanahera8949 *Karl
Agreed, as someone who has an engineering background I've got a lot of respect for Kurtis. He is rare breed indeed.
This is the best machining channel on UA-cam, no contest. Thank you Curtis and Karen!!!
Wow, thanks mate we appreciate it!
@@CuttingEdgeEngineeringI really look forward to your videos every week, and enjoy every minute. I really like how you speed up sections of video so we get to see all the steps but it doesn't take so long. Thank you!
I agree strongly! More importantly, it's the only channel with Homie! ❤
Totally agree. Great stuff, great information and excellent video work. They are a super pair. So many channels where people love their own voice and just blab away. And no 'hidden' product placements either. Just strait up factual information. Love them both
Agreed 👍
Thank you for not putting in any corny music as filler in your videos. Great editing
Like the homemade lifting bracket for the tailstock chuck. Simple and effective.
Karen is filming and giggling, Curtis is working with a straight cap, Homeless is ripping apart packages and George is screaming, singing or whatever these sounds are called.
I suppose it's a normal Friday at the Gold Coast and i love it 🙂
Karen is filming which is also working, otherwise no UA-cam film. So, thanks Karen👍👍👍👍

My dad was a carpenter for 45 years before he retired and his shop had sparrows that would roost there in spring. They built nest and along a wall in the back of the shop and every year they would raise a new clutch of young. My dad cut a hole on the door for them to fly in and in and out of, and they would zip in and out all day bringing in food for their babies.
I only remembered that when I saw him feeding those birds. Good childhood memory, thanks buddy.
Sparrows are great birds
Watching you tap the bearing off the cylinder after machining away the PERFECT amount of metal has convinced me that you are actually a wizard. Your secret is out and your clever rouse has been foiled.
I love the way you go and talk to the birds while you wait for metal to cool. The simple things in life.
The butcher bird song was beautiful. I'm so glad you captured that for overseas viewers. Considered one of the best bird calls in the world.
Karen possibly moved from NZ to Australia because she got tired of the Kiwi mating call...
Love the addition of the clock, shows how long in real time things take to do, great addition idea.
I turned off TV and got hooked watching this craftsman at work.
The fact that Curtis is a machinist, mechanic, engineer, and Disney princess is just awesome.
Kurtis properly loading an old cannon is the epitome of this episode!!! 😁
that was my initial thought, too.
@@raudi42same.
same over here
He should check into the laws down under and make a small gauge cannon doesn't need to fire shot just straight black powder do it for the GIGGLES
@@michaelnieman6218A big old George scarer?
Maybe you get tired hearing the same old stuff, but the quality of engineering and video recording/editing is superb. Real professional stuff which, even as a layman with no actual need to know this stuff, is a real pleasure to watch. Great job, both.
Love the Butcher Birds. I get woken by their calls every morning.
Mine sound the same but they play their own unique tune.
Love the machining as well. 🤠
Cool two handed turning. Most people don’t appreciate how difficult that is.
I love the sound of the Australian magpie, it brings back memories of my trips to Australia. I stayed at Undarra Lave Tubes Resort, I slept in a tent and lying in bed listening to the birds was so serene and therapeutic.
You all have created quite a monster with all the Georges flying around these days. Take care and have a great weekend!
Worse yet... They don't even TASTE that good, and they're bloody finicky to pluck too!
@@trevorvanbremen4718 Clay wrap and bake whole (well, maybe gut it first). All the feathers will come off, hopefully, with the clay.
(Do not do this with the Georges. Eating birds, yes. Georges, no).
Soon the magpies will take over and it will just be a magpie channel with humans in the background at most
Cutting edge engineering. Home to a superb Engineer, a brilliant film producer, a multi-talented four wheeled drive parcel examiner, birds, helicopters and a plethora of tools and equipment. Excellent combination, not to be found anywhere else in the world and addictingly entertaining too. Cheers guys.
I definitely like the way you work Curtis. I'm sure you're plenty strong enough to lift a lot of those parts but you're smart enough to use the crane and the forklift. I was a mason for 20+ years. I've done more than my share of heavy lifting over the years. Now that I'm older my back is paying a heavy price for all the hard work. Trust me my friend your back will thank you when you're older. You young guys can learn a lot from Curtis so pay attention.👍🏻
As a heavy vehicle mechanic myself, i totally agree, back when i was doing my apprenticeship little was said about OH&S, steel cap boots and overalls was about it. Curtis is a smart lad he will do well.
@@fredzephire4071 Exactly. I agree. We didn't even wear hard hats unless the general contractor required them. A lot of things have changed since my days as a mason.
Brilliant advice for young people in school. That kind of advice is something that definitely needs to be made each morning like the pledge of allegigance
For every Kurtis, who happily tells us how he goes his job there are 100 others who say nothing, “so you won’t know as much as they do”.
I remember picking up a “normal” hammer for a job while the experienced guy had what looked like a toffee hammer. Within minutes, I was struggling with a too heavy tool. I learned a valuable lesson - use the right tool for the job. When heavy stuff has to be lifted, your own back is never the best tool for the job.
This guy really knows his trade! The fact he's so young is even more impressive. Love the channel.
Birdies! I didn't know George sings for his food 😊 Geez you both have skills most of us could never dream of having. The details in the filmed content all the way through to the knowledge and honesty shared by Kurtis.. Keep up the good work...
I work a late/swing shift so it’s always nice to watch someone else work when I get home, LOL. I don’t know why I think that’s relaxing but it is and there is no comparison to all the other content on UA-cam, your unique content is in my wheel house as to what I work on all day and I enjoy expanding my knowledge. Hard to find people these days that put workmanship, craftsmanship and pride in their work and I appreciate the effort you all make and share with others. Big thumbs up from the STATES 🇺🇸
Ive been working a dupont swing shift 12hrs for just over 20 years and I tell the new guys youll never get used to it only build a tolerance for it. whew!
Glad to see that compound at 30°. I enjoy watching you do steady rest work. When i was working at my last job i did all the steady rest work. I've made custom cylinders from scrach with honed tube. Made many a rod and piston. 30 years machining and 20 of it programing large lathes. So its very enjoyable and satisfying to watch you work. With your precision and attention to detail. Thanks for you time and Karen's time and effort too. I know she has a tough job making you look good. Lol...your faithful watcher, the disabled machinist.
Hi Curtis, Karen. Have you ever imagined that your videos will be watched all over the world? Stunning work as always, and I love your little bird ZOO, lol :)
hey mate, we honestly never expected our channel to grow as big as it has and to have so many supporters around the world!
You two a wonderful job making videos. I enjoy them and I’m a woodcarver thanks
thankyou Karen and Curtis for our weekly lesson in barrel making and also having a nature element, feeding the wild birds and learning about their different calls and eating habits. you guys are a great channel to watch. awesome job as usual Curtis your the best machinist i know by far. there is no limit to what you can do. take care guys.
He sounded like a gate that needed lubricating at one point!
Gday Kurtis and Karen, sounds like hitachi have put thought into there cylinders with the simple things like a centre, absolutely awesome to see the hone doing it’s job again and it certainly wouldn’t be hard to over cut each side of the effected area, George and his mate put on a good song this week to, great job mate and thank you, have a great weekend, cheers
👍
These barrel rebuilds are just captivating to me. No matter how many you do, I will still watch every one of them. They are similar but each has a bit of a difference. Such as this one having a cast flange. Great to watch!
So enlightening to ger such comment from all over earth 🌍
Those button inserts are beasts. I love this content but i don't know why, I don't have any experience or dealing with engineering for work or hobby yet every week Im glued to the videos. Thanks for the time and effort you take to make this content its really interesting and you guys have great chemistry and of course homeless is awesome. All the best from the UK
I love your work! Your wife does great camera and editing! I think homie was wondering where his package was and went to search it out 😂 love the birds !
Your experience shows in little things like machining the steady bands down to the same diameter so you don't need to reset the steady when flipping the cylinder. A random guy like me might just machine them until clean and then lose time re-centering for a different diameter.
Kurtis, I always give you praise because your workmanship and craftsmanship are second to none. But Karen, your editing and camerawork are getting amazing!! Your switches between not only shots but themes as well is flawless! Let’s be honest also, you make Kurtis sound like a Nobel laureate and we all know words are not his forte. I’ve never had any problems or issues watching your videos but they’re now so seamless it’s like watching a high dollar production! You mam, may have missed your calling.
I love the circling white dots ... Too funny ... Sorry Curtis ... Thanks for sharing ... Stay safe and well ...
Hi, from Sacramento, CA USA, love all the vids, incredible videography and incredible attention to detail. Keep it coming and more puppy shots please . 😊
I'm west of you in Sonoma County
Hey mate thanks so much for watching & commenting!
I’m in Woodland
Should I put on "It's a Small World" for us? 😀
unreal workmanship and the wife filming never miss a show so good to watch keep it up cheers.
YOU ARE A PROFESSIONAL,I'M 80 AND HAVE HAD A LARGE TOWING BUSINESS AND LAST A SEMI TRUCK SHOP, YOUR WORKMANSHIP GIVES ME HOPE FOR THE FUTURE GENERATIONS AND I CAN SEE YOUR ARE HONEST IN YOUR WORK,MAY GOD BLESS YOU IN YOUR LIFE
Kurt, I am very impressed with the variation in thickness of the barrels walls. When you make the cut on the lathe, we can see that the eccentricity is absurd. I notice how your welding (done manually) is much superior to original welds of these barrels, which are done through automated processes. Your welding is very well distributed, with constant thickness. Congratulations on your skill. Greetings from Brazil.
Brazil is well represented as intelligent people such as your self enlighten the entire world 🌎
It makes me angry. He says that 30 minutes of welding was needed at 20:00, but he only weld for a few seconds in the video! Nobody can weld that fast
And there is NO FOOTAGE of the welding at 30:08 …. How do we know if he even did the welding???
Nice job, as always Curtis is an expert and Karen is the best cameraman
O sorriso da Karen, o canto do passaro e o profissionalsmo do torneiro tudo é lindo neste video
Cheers Curtis and Karen for my Friday night fix.From a very happy Scotsman living in the south o France who found you guys on youtube .
Not a wasted motion Kurtis, a pleasure to watch. I get a kick out of Kurtis and the birds, cursing them one minute for being noisy and the next feeding them. Obviously a true animal lover he is :-).
That was another great video. I love seeing that big hone in action and Karin was quite enamoured with George and his cohorts. We're really looking forward to seeing the creation of the piston and final assembly. Best wishes to you three from Bruce, Karin, Halgrim and Bella. We wish you a pleasant and joyful weekend.
its getting there. soon you will be able to re assemble the parts. You make it look easy. Good video Kurtis. Its good when you have the tools to complete this kind of work. Hope to see the next part next week. Look forward to that video.
The modem sounds in the outtakes got a real laugh out of me! Cheers from New Hampshire, USA!
Go cart with a fan and plastic bag.😂 Enjoying again these vids, suberb work from both of you. Homeless is still the real star. 😎🇫🇮
Are you a snooty helicopter guy too?
Top notch once again Kurtis and Karen. Even the Magpies have got into the act of singing Curtis praises, he is now an honorary Australian Princess. Thank you guys you make the start of the weekend a joy.
Butcher Bird...
Pied butcherbirds (Cracticus nigrogularis) actually. They are related to magpies, probably the easiest visual difference is that magpies have black undersides and walk rather than hop.
@@gazzafloss I've given them a butchers and they are Magpies. :)
@@Horus9339 nah!
@@ithecastic *Kurtis
Thank you Mr. Curtis for this useful lesson
And thanks to Ms. Karen for making the activity enjoyable when she excelled in photography and directing
I look forward to seeing you every week
in
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Drinking whisky, listening to the rain lashing on the windows, watching someone on the other side of the planet machine metal. Am I living my best life of what!
How goods that 👌
Kurtis, you make everything appear really easy - a true Craftsman indeed - and a great pleasure to watch!
24:15 - 26:05 was some great capture and editing. I guess Kurtis did something too. 😅 Amazing stuff. You both always start my Fridays with a smile, thanks. An example of professionalism every week.
PS: My goof's get excited hearing Homeless open packages. It makes their Friday morning a treat as well!
Your attention to detail is beyond reproach. Always a blast to watch.
J'attendais avec impatience la deuxième vidéo, regardé avec un immense plaisir, toutes mes félicitations, car en France il n'y a pas beaucoup d'artisan de cette qualité !!
Cutting edge engineering you are getting replies from all over earth 🌍
Thank you CEE for another fantastic machining video enhanced by the beautiful song of the Pied Butcher Bird. Kurtis the "bird and machining whisperer".
Buenos días, ¿cómo están? Siempre espero los viernes para ver su excelente trabajo, y también el excelente trabajo de la Señorita de la cámara.
Saludos desde México.
Good one Karen - great editing created an interesting video, good job picking up the center height issue and, "mint" that came out of nowhere!
Kurtis "Button Insert" Allen is back in action! I love it when the button comes out cuz we are about to get some meaty freehand turning. That and some amazing welding. Watching you run the lathe is just too much fun.
Yeah, those buttons seem to cut really well, depth & speed & finish, so still surprised that it isn't used more, much more, for all facing & turning, even boring and not just hogging out those welds! An to top it off, it ain't got just 3 tips, not a infinite number all the way around but way more then 3!
Good job, glad to see the birds still around, my wife and I live on the side of a mountain in a forest. We have so many birds around which we feed even got birds which sing through the night too. The honing machine is awesome and must be very handy not having to send work out. Sometimes the weld prep took longer than the welding, but we always made sure it was done right. Great post. Thanks Kurtis, Karen and of course Homey 👍
I suggest some time in a future video you might mention your big lathe's leadscrew/feed shaft support.
My nephew who's been in industry for 30 years had never noticed one before posed a question (I could at last answer) and I thought others might be curious too.
Having a crane that would reach the welding and honing areas might be a good investment 😮😅
So much in this 'simple' rebuild... thanks for taking us through it with you. I appreciate the explanations along the way; had no idea about Hitachi designing their cylinders with relief and sacrificial metal at the stationary end...it makes so much sense! Today's vid is a tour d'force!
Another GREAT video from the CEE team. I was quite impressed that Karen knew the tool centre height was wrong. One of the first things I learnt at TAFE 45 years ago when doing the machining section of my fitting and turning course.
*Cutting Edge Engineering Australia* Bravo well done, always a pleasure to watch, thanks for taking the time to bring us along. GOD Bless.
Really strange. I was going ask if Karen ever catches "mistakes" or "something's just not right", and there she goes and does it! 🙂
Quality .... Thank You Kurtis and Karen! Quality Knowledge, Workmanship ... And Stunning Editing And Style of Vid ... No BS NO Montage BS with Crappy music .... just straight as a die.
peace
Thanks to Karen for her great video recording n editing skills, especially the bloopers lol + big thanks for Homie doing his usual duties around the workshop n opening his surprise toys, and as always a pleasure watching someone like Curtis who takes great pride in his machining and welding. As I have said once before being a boilermaker/welder once upon a time myself I can honestly say that Curtis is on par with his welding skills as I used to be, as I used to take pride in all my work n loved to do the odd bit of lathe work. My favorite welding was Aluminum + Stainless Tig + heavy plate stick n mig welding. Watching these videos puts me in calm tranquil place lol. Almost forgot to add love the birds in the vids also.
1:49 Hilarious! Your CEE notepad says "F*CKING MUNTED" on it! HAHA!
Haha good spotting!
Yay! We got to the honing machine 😉 Thanks guys. Top notch 👌
Its good to see how clean, tidy, and well lighted you keep your shop. I've seen other machine shops that are dark, dirty, and disorganized. Even your bird friends sing their approval from the rafters, ignoring the occasional cuss words they hear. Good on yer, mates.
After a week of bs in the office, I so happy to see real work done right, a seldom thing to see these days
que perfección 👌👌muy buen trabajo 👏👏
Yaaaaaaaaa….it’s Friday, time for my CEE fix!
😊 makes my day every time! Thanks K, K, & H.
Another nice bit of engineering excellence! Thanks to to both of you I enjoy seeing Homey and George too!
Curtis my dad was a tool and die maker for 25 years of his 49 year life. I know that if he could watch what you do he would be amazed at your journeyman skills in everything you do there. Your video assistant is excellent and the family pet is over the moon precious. Much love from Sparks, Nevada USA for what you do there.
I just love the swarf from the button inserts, it's kinda pretty. But I also like the long pig-tails from the parting tool as well. How long to clean up after a job like this? And another great video is done, well done to both of you! Excellent editing as always Karen.
I gotta say, I do love when a vid hits, because that's my cue to get the weekend started! it's 5pm, baby! Is it getting a bit warmer for you guys up there? Pretty sure we're already in summer in Melbourne 😂🤣 On ya mate
Hey mate! We're getting pretty warm sunny days now, nights are still a bit fresh but summer is definitely on the way 👍
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering I swear Bunning's already has Christmas sales up, and that's better than any calendar to know summer is coming 😂
@@caffienatedchaos If you want to know when spring is about to arrive, just look for the fruit mince pies in the supermarkets.
Damn, he makes the tricky stuff look easy. Every time I think "but but but how's he gonna ...." and I only have to wait and all is explained and shown. Great stuff, thanks!
I'm so jealous of your parting ability curtis. It's the one thing i struggle with on my lathe. I'm just a farmer, so don't spend a lot of time machining, just impressive to watch. I learn every time i watch.
Great video and words to live by… Always keep an eye on your stones.
its interesting seeing how another shop does this
Curtis, you truly know your stuff. Thank you for the great videos. I am only a hobby machinist and your videos are very much appreciated. Thank you sir.
Just got to say that these videos are truly amazing the professionalism, attention to detail, and the knowledge and ability that is on display here is not to be taken lightly! Just so awesome to witness a true Craftsman, rebuilding and refurbishing things instead of just swapping parts!
Love watching you guys 🔥🔥
Another brilliant video from CEE waited a week for part two,but well worth it.
Curtis stepping away from the largest sand blast cabinet I've ever seen... "This is too small and more of a home hobbyist cabinet"
And ALL THAT for a fraction price of a new one...
Sincerely impressive.
Kurtis last week you were talking about sound changes caused by damage. Does an operator have to be familiar with that particular piece of equipment or can anyone with experience detect the damage from the sound it makes?
Back at Disney, watching Kurtis. Still an amazing craftsman. Thanks for posting this . Steve Also, thanks to Karen for making the video so easy to watch.
Сколько смотрю, каждый раз удивляюсь количеству инструментов и станков у этого человека. И внимательность к деталям при работе тоже вызывает восхищение.
The Big Finale for the big work!) By the way, i see that from one video to another, animal freelancers of CEE are increasing their numbers, are they doing good?)))
The finale is next week with the piston being engineered. Have a great weekend MM.
Happy Fridays!
TGIF!
I'm impressed at how you set up your operations so that you obtain the required concentricity using a three-jaw chuck, and in a way that avoids having to dial-in a four-jaw chuck. You also know where that's important and where it's not. My compliments.
Brilliant as usual guys you are my guilty pleasure every Friday morning here in the UK. Looking forward to seeing the finished product on the next instalment 😀👍🏻👍🏻
I dont know how you cracked the algorithm but congrats. I really enjoy your channel.
Also the editing is really great.
Glad you enjoy it!
It’s simple. Good content. That turns to very high click through rates so Google goes “fark lots people watching it, let’s recommend it”
Another CEE masterpiece, Kurt & Karen
I’m addicted to these videos. I watch them as soon as they’re released.
Watching those birds sing to you was a real treat. I love how much you value the animals, like that time you rescued that lizard that was stuck in a machine.
Thank you Kurtis, Giggler, and Homey! Live long and prosper!!! 🖖🏻
Karen you are on this job!
Is that tool height wrong?
Let’s see you on the lathe and Kurtis behind the camera.🤠
You know way more about this machining gig than you think.
By the way back in the 80’s the barrel was larger but we gave a Chinese guy a rag and said in you go.
We slid him in and out by the ankles and said just hold your breath.
Worked a treat and I can’t believe we did that either. It was only the once and he was ok 🤠
The worlds biggest cotton bud 😂 Top work as always. Your magpies sing so nicely, unlike the feathered bastards near me.
😂
I like the lifting rig for the tailstock chuck. I have not seen that used before!
It always amazes me that there is such precision, yet a lot of the processes are blindly machining/honing, then checking manually, little bit more, checking, little bit more, done, with 0.005mm precision 😀
