 With its new hydraulic PT 350 press, Berco adds an updated and powerful working instrument to its already well-known range of machines and equipment used in the tracked vehicles maintenance sector.
Due to its capacity and size, this model allows assembling and disassembling operations to be carried out safely and efficiently, on all chains up to a maximum inside length of chain link of 350 mm.
Such a range includes the largest ones among modern tracked vehicles: Komotsu PC1000-2, Caterpillar D11 and others.
In line with the Berco tradition,the performance and reliability of the new PT 350 press have been fully tested in the production departments of our plants, under the most severe of conditions for volume and continuous workload.
The working procedure is the same as for moddel PT200, widely known and used by this sector's users thanks to its reliability.
An hydraulic winch pulls the chain along the roller conveyor; the first part of the roller conveyor (which is an integral part of the press and whose motor is hydraulically-operated) is used to move the chain in both directions; it is also used for the correct lengthwise positioning in relation to the assembling and disassembling plates and to the slide (movable rest insert).
The slide, through an hydraulic cylinder, is vertically moved in the two possible positions: high (reference and operating position) and low (thus enabling the chain horizontal movements). The equipment, for the assembling and disassembling phases, consists of a pair of plates. Each plate is composed by two pushers (one for the pin side and the other one for the bushing side).
