Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to discuss the development of a crimping machine capable of crimping hydraulic hoses without the use of electricity. A thorough analysis of the literature suggests that it was the fabrication of electrically powered crimping machines that motivated the authors to create a hydraulically powered crimping machine. This type of crimping machine is extremely useful when the rig is in motion and is also ideal for emergency crimping to prevent shutdown time. The author designed critical components of the system using Autodesk inventor software and obtained a safety factor greater than one for all critical components. A safety factor of less than one results in hazardous operating conditions for vital components. The entire assembly has been successfully fabricated for the necessary crimping on a 19.05 mm hose. The crimping machine was successfully checked for crimping the specified hose size. The machine's configuration can be modified to fit a variety of die sizes for crimping hoses of various sizes.
The hydraulically powered crimping machine effectively crimps hydraulic hoses without electricity, making it ideal for emergency crimping and in-motion crimping.
