Hydraulic drive pumps for in-situ line boring and surface facing have historically been heavy for operators to handle and lacked control and power at low cutting speeds. AVS Engineering, in Bellevue WA, has recently released a brand-new innovation in this area – a servo controlled hydraulic pump. The new pump is the result of extensive design, development and testing in WA by industrial automation engineer, Morne Grundling, and was initiated by AVS Engineering’s need for more consistency and control in their own jobs on mine sites across the state.  The final product developed is now available for sale through AVS Engineering, to other onsite machining companies and the word is spreading fast. Conventional ‘Wisdom’ Conventional hydraulic pump controllers for these…

Hydraulic drive pumps for insitu line boring and surface facing have historically been heavy for operators to handle and lacked control and power at low cutting speeds.  AVS Engineering, in Bellevue WA, has recently released a brand new innovation in this area – a DC servo controlled hydraulic pump. The new pump is the result of extensive design, development and testing in WA and is based on AVS’s need for more consistency and control in their own jobs on mine sites across the state.  The product they have developed is now available for sale to other onsite machining companies. Conventional hydraulic pump controllers for these applications regulate cutting speed by restricting the flow of fluid to the pump.  This creates…
