Project Introduction

The North-South Commuter Railway, also known as the Clark–Calamba Railway, is a 147-kilometer urban rail transit system under construction on the island of Luzon, Philippines, primarily in the Greater Manila Area. The project will utilize the Japanese railway system that uses energy-efficient and reliable trains. 

RIVERLAKE supplied a pile load testing system consisting of 2 units of 1000-ton hydraulic cylinders and 1 unit PLC-controlled electric hydraulic power unit. The system will perform pile load testing work up to 1569 tons in the NSCR Extension Project.

RIVERLAKE PLC controlled hydraulic jacking system is designed for pile load tests up to 2000 tons where the load is to be applied in different stages and displayed accurately in real-time. The plc pile load test jacking system provides 6 default tonnage options, user can preset the loading tonnage and holding period of time for each option. During pile load test operation, the whole process is run automatically, just select one of the preset tonnages and press the auto-run button. the hydraulic jack will raise to its full stroke, upon reaching the preset load, the jacking system will stop automatically and hold the pressure for the preset period of time. The PLC touch screen will display the real-time load and pressure accurately. After testing is complete at this stage, select a new tonnage for the next stage, change the holding time if necessary, then press autorun to repeat the whole process.

Calculate Force in Your Hydraulic Cylinder the Easy Way

In hydraulic systems, force is a crucial element in controlling the flow of liquids and gases. In this article, we will discuss how to calculate the force exerted by a hydraulic cylinder. First, we need to know the dimensions of the piston and cylinder. Second, we need to know the working pressure of the hydraulic cylinder. The force exerted in a hydraulic cylinder can be calculated using the following equation: F = P x A. where F is the force, P is the pressure of the fluid in the cylinder, and A is the working effectiveness area of the piston. This equation can be used to calculate forces in any hydraulic system. For example, the effective area of a double-acting cylinder is 0.145m² for push and 0.048m² for retraction, rated working pressure is 70Mpa. The pushing force should be  F(push)=70MpaX0.145m²=10.15Ton, and the pulling force should be F(pull)=70MpaX0.048m²=3.3Ton.
DIY: How to Replace Damaged Hydraulic Cylinder Seals

DIY: How to Replace Damaged Hydraulic Cylinder Seals

Hydraulic cylinder seals are commonly damaged in a variety of ways. The most common cause is a mechanical failure, such as over-torquing or sudden load changes. Other causes include contamination and wear caused by oil and grease, water, and other fluids. Damage to the seal can lead to leakage, which can be extremely costly to repair. Step 1: Order a new set of seals for your hydraulic cylinder To repair the cylinder, you will need a new set of seals. You can either buy new seals directly from your cylinder manufacturer or you can get the required seal part number and buy them from a local hardware store. Step 2: Preparation work before you disassemble the cylinder Before disassembling the hydraulic cylinder, it’s important to clean it and remove all dirt, grease, oil, and other contaminants. You do not want these contaminants to get inside the cylinder or the hydraulic system. You need to do the disassembly work in a clean workspace. If you are in the field, you can put down a clean tarpaulin and do the repair on this. Step 3: Disassemble the hydraulic cylinder step by step It can be hard to know where to start when disassembling a hydraulic cylinder. First,
How to FIX a sinking foundation

How To FIX a Sinking Foundation

A home’s foundation is its most important structural element. It supports the rest of the house and keeps it from sinking, shifting, or cracking. When a foundation starts to sink, it can cause various other problems that can be costly and dangerous to fix. Causes of a sinking foundation Sinking foundations are a common problem in homes across the country. There are several potential causes of this issue, including weak or improperly compacted soil, improper drainage, and poor foundation construction. In some cases, the underlying problem may be something as simple as a tree root growing too close to the home’s foundation. However, other factors such as weather conditions or changes in the groundwater level can also contribute to a sinking foundation. If you are experiencing this problem with your home, it is essential to identify the cause and take steps to correct it as soon as possible. Signs that you have a sinking foundation A sinking foundation is a serious structural problem that can lead to a home’s collapse. There are several signs that can indicate your foundation is starting to sink. If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to have your foundation inspected by a professional foundation
Bolt Tensioning vs Torquing: Introduction, difference, pros and cons.

Bolt Tensioning vs Torquing: Introduction, difference, pros, and cons.

Introduction Bolt tensioning and torquing are two different ways to adjust the tension on a bolt. Torque is the ability to apply a rotational force and is used to tighten and loosen bolts, while bolt tensioning is when the bolt’s nut is tightened against the head of the bolt. This tightening creates a drag on the bolt, increasing its stability and preventing it from loosening during use. Torque wrench use generally depends on the size of the bolt, while tensioners can be used with almost any bolt size. What is bolt tensioning? Bolt tensioning is the process of adjusting the tension on a nut or bolt by using a hydraulic press force. This is done to precisely adjust the strength of the connection between the parts being joined. The process can tighten or loosen connections, and it is an often-needed procedure in many industries. Hydraulic bolt tensioners are an essential part of modern machinery, as they allow for accurate and repeatable adjustment of bolt tension. What is bolt torquing? Bolt torquing is the act of tightening or loosening a bolt by turning it with a wrench. It’s an important part of industrial maintenance, and it can be done by hand or using a torque wrench. Torque is measured in
