Industrial components
Industrial components include parts that complement drives, structures and machine service nodes. It is not a single component, but a practical selection of elements for repairs, maintenance and minor structural modifications.
When looking for a replacement, the most important feature is the assembly. Otherwise, a hinged eye is selected, otherwise a shock absorber, spring, pump, measuring element or pneumatic part is selected.
For similar-looking components, connection dimensions, load, stroke, pressure, material and operating environment are decisive. A photograph of the original part will often reveal the type of attachment or connection.
- determine if the part conducts motion, absorbs shock, measures or transmits pressure
- write down threads, diameters, lengths, pitches and connection type
- verify force, stroke and duty cycle for loaded parts
- for liquids and air, monitor pressure, medium and seals
For industrial components, it is best to send a photo of the entire assembly situation, not just the part itself. It is then easier to verify the size, function and possible replacement.
