In these times of social distancing, you may need an hydraulic hose assembly machine.

To get you started, a great example of a bench mounted hydraulic hose bench cutter is the Hydralok HCL Mobile, a lightweight, bench mounted cutter that runs off a 12v or 24v supply. It is primarily designed for the mobile hose repairs as its small footprint and lightweight design make it an excellent choice for repair vans and mobile applications.

 

  • Hose capacity: 1 1/2″ (2 wire) and 1 1/4″ (4 wire)
  • Easy to use vertical cutting action.
  • Light weight and compact design.
  • Ideal cutter to use with our H32 Mobile machine

 

Paired with our H32 Mobile series and a hand skiving tool, this hydraulic hose assembly solution would be the ideal, compatible set up, for your hydraulic hose assembly.

What is a swaging machine? This is a question we are often asked when a new customer encounters us.

For those in the know, swager, press, crimper, squeezer, swagging machine are all words we’ve heard from our customers over the years when asking about hose assembly machines.

What do swaging machines do? In simple layperson’s terms they exert sufficient pressure to join metal fittings with flexible hose .

The machines apply force with 360 degrees in eight areas of contact of contact on to the outer diameter of the ferrule. As the pressure is applied on the ferrule the OD decreases and forces the inner ridges of the ferrule to bite into the hose, securing the join.

Here’s a video of an Hydralok hand machine in action and here is another video showing cleaning of the swaging ring

Swaging machines range from simple, portable, hand-operated devices, often for service level / piece work requirements, to larger, powered machines – some fully automated for high-volume hose assembly production.
