Used Parts for Forklifts
Used Forklift Part - Unavoidably, lift truck components will eventually wear out and need replacing. The choice of obtaining brand new components can become costly so another idea is to buy used parts. This could save a lot of money in the long run. It is a good idea to buy used forklift parts which have been reproduced. These parts will ensure that you are getting parts that would work for a long time and be productive.
Worn or broken parts which are remanufactured are a very cost effective answer than rebuilding. With rebuilding components, just the components which are worn out or broken get changed, which means that other wearable components might break down soon after acquisition.
Remanufacturing however provides the best guarantee for used components. Reproduced parts are taken apart and cleaned and then all wearable pieces are replaced. All wearable components are replaced regardless of age or wear which is another rationale why reproduced components on the whole run so much better. Whatever component within the part is brand new and this provides much longer life to the second-hand part. Depending on the lift truck components that are being redone, the cleaning process and the entire remanufacturing process will vary.
The engines are cleaned after a complete disassembly. Various engine parts such as pistons, spark plugs, rings, filters, valves, and valve springs can be replaced during the process of remanufacturing. The engines are hot tested after reassembly to ensure that there are no noise, no oil pressure problems, no leaks or any vacuum.
Transmissions are one more thing which is oven cleaned after being disassembled. The transmission is then washed. A complete inspection is performed in order to check for any cracks. Bushings, seals and bearings are all replaced. Typically, the replacement components utilized on transmission components meet OEM specifications.
Some parts like for example torque converters, the alternator, the water pump, steer axles and the starter can acquire longer serviceability after being remanufactured and having all wearable parts replaced. The electronic control in the electric lift truck is maintained by the control card. This particular card could even be reproduced with replacing all aged and worn out components. Unlike other lift truck parts the control card can only have the worn and aged components replaced.
Remanufactured components are comprehensively checked upon reassembly to ensure they are in top condition prior to being sold. It is vital when acquiring reproduced components to be certain they have undergone the proper testing and inspection procedures. On certain larger components such as transmissions, steer axles and engines, OEM specification replacement parts must be utilized.
The forklift dealer can ensure that the parts they have reproduced meet the OEM specifications. This would also guarantee the components meet industry standards. Lots of details go into remanufacturing used components. This attention to detail offers more serviceability out of remanufactured components than the parts that were only rebuilt.
