THE ISSUES
Conventional removal methods using floppy jaw pullers often require two operators and can be time-consuming and slow. Traditional jaws tend to have a poor grip on work surfaces and can snap back at the operator, making removal frustrating and difficult. This can render the equipment inoperable and under repair for longer than necessary, leading to loss of income for the company.
OUR SOLUTIONS
SPX FLOW Power Team offers a comprehensive range of pulling equipment, enabling users to remove and install parts in a safe and efficient manner.
SPX Powerteam Posi Lock pullers feature a patented Safety Cage® jaw retention system. Provides effortless pulling power and has a no-slip feature that prevents wear and tears on the components removed.
The Posi Lock Pullers are offered in both mechanical and hydraulic versions.
- Mechanical – Mechanical pullers use a center bolt to provide force on the shaft enabling jaws to extract objects in a controlled manner. Mechanical pullers are offered in capacities between 1T and 40T.
- Hydraulic – Hydraulic cylinder reacts off shaft enabling jaws to extract the object in a controlled manner. Hydraulic pullers are offered in 5T to 50T capacities.
Fast Set-up. Efficient Operation. Less operator effort. Safe operation. Greater Productivity.
THE POSI LOCK ADVANTAGE
Other gears and bearing pullers slip off the work surface or snap back creating dangerous work conditions. Usually, you end up recruiting an extra pair of hands for assistance. With Posi Lock pullers, the revolutionary Safety Cage® design enhances safety and efficiency while reducing downtime and cost.
Posi Lock advantages over the traditional puller:
- Clamps onto failed bearing surfaces, eliminating the need to pull from behind the race
- Clamps onto the narrow slot on different side carrier bearings for easy removal
- Can remove a hub or sleeve where no pulling surface is available
- Easily removes armature bearings, pulleys, and couplings from electric motors
- Removes steering link arms by clamping on rounded link arm to form holding action
- Clamps on tapered or rounded surfaces on a pulley V-groove quickly and easily
- Removes flanges and impellers quickly on water pump and other repair
- Removes vibration dampeners by clamping on cap screws
- Removes timing gears quickly and easily
- No slip feature saves wear and tear on components removed
- Slim tapered jaws available in 2- or 3-jaw options
