Two expert technicians are on the job, carefully inspecting a cargo valve control system. Dressed in safety gear, they're focused on every detail, checking for any signs of wear or issues that could cause trouble down the line. This isn't just a regular check-up – it's preventive maintenance in action. These tech pros are making sure everything runs smoothly, catching potential problems before they become major headaches. Their work ensures the cargo valve system stays reliable, reducing downtime and making operations safer. In this snapshot, simplicity meets expertise, showcasing how a little maintenance today keeps the cargo moving tomorrow! 🛠️🔧 #TechHeroes #PreventiveMaintenance #IndustrialInspection
Big service on this GA55 VSD-FF. Oil change, full filtration, seperator element, check and inspection of the intake plus rotors. Minimum pressure valve and oil stop valve. I even noticed some nasty corrosion staring to take place over the seperator sump so pulled it out and gave it a good coat of rust kill to help prevent any further corrosion from taking place. You can either turn up and do as your job card states, change the basics and get out of there. Or turn up with the customers and the compressors best interest in mind making sure you pay attention to every little detail, even the smallest things. I know which technician I want to be… do you? #compressedair #atlascopco #compressor #aircompressor #tasmania
When a technician performs hydraulic cylinder repairs, they take the entire mechanism apart and reassemble to find the root cause of the issue.

A little correction to what I said here, you can structure your shop with a specialized frame technicians and separate body technicians and still win. The main key that makes an A level technician is being a subject matter expert on what any vehicle needs to be fully restored back to pre loss condition and be able to do that said repair in a profitable way.
The critical shortage of competent hydraulic diagnostic technicians is costing companies tens of millions of dollars annually. After one company alone lost ten hydraulic pumps worth $400,000.00 in a single day because their mechanics lacked basic troubleshooting skills, you would think the business owner would be pounding on the doors of government demanding that America's technical colleges (most) start paying attention to the "quality" of the "goods" they produce. Most technical colleges offer hydraulic training yet over 99% of graduates cannot troubleshoot hydraulic systems. How the $400,000.00 bloodbath occurred: The company's mechanics replaced a gear box that housed five hydraulic pumps. Unbeknownst to the mechanic the gear ratio was incorrect. When they started the machine excessive speed caused at least one or two of the pumps to suffer catastrophic failures. The cost - $200,000.00. The mechanics replaced all five pumps, started the machine and the new pumps suffered the same fate as the original pumps, which cost the company another $200,000.00. A competent hydraulic technician would have been able to avert both of these failures with nothing more than a $20.00 vacuum gauge. Although a vacuum gauge is a critical instrument for diagnosing inlet problem on hydraulic pumps less than 1% of mechanics own and or know how to use one. This photo is for reference purposes only. It is not a photo of the gearbox describes in this incident.
During the calibration of a pneumatic control valve with a positioner, a technician notices that the valve does not respond linearly to the input signal. When the input signal is increased from 4 mA to 20 mA, the valve position does not change proportionally and exhibits a hysteresis effect. What is the most likely cause of this issue? A. The actuator diaphragm is damaged or leaking B. The valve is experiencing cavitation C. There is a buildup of sediment or deposits in the valve body D. The positioner feedback mechanism is improperly aligned or malfunctioning
