Get more out of your machine

All machines wear out over time. The “ears” become more and more oval, the joints become more and more loose and the machine becomes more and more annoying.

You probably know the feeling. You’re driving around in a new excavator. The excavator works perfectly. After a while, the excavator arm becomes less precise in its movements. Before long, you’re left with an excavator arm that feels both loose and imprecise. Blurring has occurred in the digging arm.

One or more of the excavator arm joints has failed due to the heavy loads the excavator is subjected to during operation. Now the machine needs to be transported to the workshop where you have the blacksmith line-drill, weld and replace the pin bolt. An expensive affair that will be needed several times over the life of the machine… Or will it? What if I told you that there is a solution that permanently eliminates digging arm play?
If you’re reading this post because your own machine needs a tune-up or because you’re tired of recurring workshop costs, I recommend you read on.

The problem with a regular pin bolt is that it will always be a millimeter or two smaller than the hole – otherwise the bolt simply cannot be inserted. Those few millimeters allow for wear and tear over time. The expander bolt solves that.

Expander – A profitable solution

It’s very simple. It’s not the pin bolt that’s expensive, it’s the repairs.

The Expander System is a permanent solution from the day the bolt is installed. Expander provides a 10-year functional warranty or the equivalent of 10,000 hours.

Adding an expander bolt to your machine not only eliminates looseness in the excavator arm, it also eliminates the need for workshop visits due to wear and tear in the loose joints.

As illustrated in the picture, this means that you can achieve profitability already after the first repair. As an additional side benefit, you add value to the machine until the day it is sold.

The Expander System – In short

A traditional pin bolt is slightly smaller in diameter than the hole it needs to enter – otherwise it simply wouldn’t fit. This size difference can be incredibly small, but it’s still enough to cause problems in the future (see video for explanation).
 
The Expander System eliminates this size difference by using special sleeves that expand in the hole. When installed correctly, the expander bolt adapts 100% to the hole and permanently eliminates all slippage.
