Easy repair of air spring bellows MS20003 – Tool for air spring sleeves
In contrast to suspensions with other elastic elements, air suspension provides better driving characteristics and comfort. However, air suspension is more complex, more susceptible to wear and tear, and more difficult to repair or replace.
The weak points of air suspension:
- air bellows;
- compressor;
- trunks;
- sensors;
The most commonly worn air cylinders, especially the open type. Enemies of pneumatic cylinders are abrasive and fatigue wear, hydraulic fluid of shock absorbers, which, getting on the cylinder, destroys its surface.
The difficulty of repairing pneumoballoons is explained by the complexity of the design of the elements. Problems usually arise at the stage of diagnosis, because the design of the pneumatic cushion implies a compressor, a lot of sensors, an additional air chamber. In addition, there are designs where the pneumatic cylinder and shock absorber are united in a common module (by the way, that's why many service stations refuse to repair pneumatic cushions and advise to change the whole pneumatic strut).
But progress does not stand still, and there is already equipment, special tools and components on the market for repair of pneumatic cylinders.
Specialised tools for air cylinder repair
MSG Equipment presents its new development in the line of special tools for air cylinder repair – this device MS20003, which allows you to quickly and with minimal effort to put a universal air hose on the air cylinder. Sleeve-type pneumatic cylinders are used by manufacturers: Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover.
Fixture MS20003 is a complex articulated mechanism, with the help of which universal pneumatic hoses with diameter up to 140 mm are mounted. The whole process takes 1-2 minutes and does not depend on the type of air hose. In this case, the efforts of one person are sufficient, which helps to increase the productivity of the mechanic and reduce the risk of injury.
An important point! The use of universal pneumatic hoses allows to reduce the range and cost of the warehouse of components necessary for repair of pneumatic cylinders.
