'Bushout'
Cuts bush removal time from
hours to minutes!
If time is precious and you are
in the business of cutting maintenance time and costs, the Hanley
Smith 'BushOut' will be of interest to you.
One of the problems of landing gear maintenance and overhaul, which can be
particularly difficult and costly in terms of component damage, is
the removal of bushings and liners. To overcome this problem we have
developed a unique extraction system, which quickly and cleanly withdraws
interference fit components, without damage to either component or
housing.
The Bushout is a modular concept design allowing engineers to easily configure
the Bushout to the required size to extract the bush or liner. The
process of extraction is quicker and more efficient.
A patented expandable collet which fits within the bore of a bush or liner
and engages on its inboard end, can extract most bushes and liners
from 1.7" (45mm)
to 7" (180mm) diameter. The extraction is performed by either a press,
a hydraulic ram or pneumatic gun. A 45 kg wheeled tool kit enables
interference fit components to be extracted at any location, quickly,
cleanly and without damage to either component.
