Air Tool Repairs: The Preventative Maintenance Approach

Air Tool Repairs: The Preventative Maintenance Approach.
Air tools work by using a compressed air supply, which drives the internal workings of the air tool. The most common types of air tools in the manufacturing industry are drills, grinders and sanders. Air powered tools in the industrial market are generally cheaper to run, maintain and have a higher power to weight ratio than their electrical powered counterparts, despite being slightly more expensive in the initial purchase.

Since the initial purchase of a pneumatic tool is more expensive, it is advised that preventative maintenance is carried out, in order to prolong the tools lifespan and keep the tool running at its optimum level. Performing regular maintenance makes it possible to extend the use and reliability of the tool, be it an electric or air powered tool. The most common maintenance procedures would include partial or complete overhauls, oiling and lubricating components.

The alternative to preventative maintenance:
If preventative maintenance is not performed at regular service intervals, the likelihood of a tool failing to work correctly is increased. When a tool is no longer able to perform its required function, corrective maintenance is required. This is a reactive method of tool maintenance whereas preventative maintenance is a proactive measure. Corrective maintenance work may include the replacement of gears, cylinders, rotors, field coils, armatures and gearboxes which are normally expensive to replace.

Repairing Pneumatic tools correctly:
Preventative maintenance should be performed by trained and experienced technicians.The intervals at which maintenance checks can be carried out are typically monthly, quarterly and yearly. Power Tool Sales Ltd offer an air tool repairs service where you are able to set the intervals. In some cases they can provide a replacement tool, during the period yours is being repaired.WEEE Regulations should also be considered when repairing pneumatic tools. Since 2005 Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is now a law that stats all electronic tools and equipment should be disposed properly to prevent them being dumped in land falls, where led and other toxins can contaminate the environment. Ensuring that Pneumatic tools are working correctly may reduce the possible exposure and effects of hand arm vibration (HAV's). More information on this can be found here: HAVS Testing

Preventative maintenance is an effective method of ensuring that air tools remain effective and reliable. In the present current economic climate, it is cheaper in most cases to repair a tool when compared to purchasing a new one. Conducting proactive pneumatic tool repairs will also help reduce the risk of exposing tool operators to harmful vibrations.

Is it a MUST that you use air tools for installing a trailer hitch?

I am planning on installing a 2nd class hitch on my 05 Volvo S80. i hear the install isn't that hard to do. So i was wondering if it was a MUST to use air tools? Because i was just going to use my ratchet set from Lowes!!

No just make sure the bolts are as tight as you can get them and use grade 8 bolts.. and lock nuts..
