Hydraulic System Design and Drafting Service

Our team of tertiary qualified Mechanical Engineers use a number of CAD programmes including Solidworks and AutoCAD to carry out all design and drafting work. We also utilise FEA software to verify all design work as necessary.

Systems and individual components can be designed to comply with any relevant standards or Class Society Rules. The list below shows some of the more common Standards and Class Society Rules we regularly work within.

  • All AS/NZ Standards
  • BV (Bureau Veritas)
  • ISO Standards
  • DNV (Det Norske Veritas as.)
  • DIN Standards
  • API (American Petroleum Institute)
  • Lloyd’s Register
  • ABS (American Bureau of Shipping)

Winches

Perrott Engineering can custom design and manufacture a winch of practically any size and operating parameters to suit your specific application. Our engineering team will work with you to meet all your requirements regarding safety features, maximum line pull, and drum capacity, braking etc. for the application.

Hydraulic Power Units

Perrott Engineering can custom design and build a hydraulic powerpack of any size and power input type to suit your specific application, from 0.5 kW to 500 kW. Electric, single or three phase, diesel or air powered. The photos below depict just some of the different types of powerpacks we have designed and manufactured over the years.

Mill and Gearbox Lubrication Systems

Perrott Engineering can custom design and build a lubrication system to suit your specific application. We have built lubrication systems to suit everything from simple gearboxes to complex ball and sag mill applications in the mining industry.

Our designers are experienced in field layouts and you will find our lube systems are very easy to service and effect component changeouts when necessary. Our systems are designed and built with the functionality and serviceability foremost in mind, and while this may sometimes result in a slight capital cost increase, this will be saved many times over during the life of the lube system.
Mill down time is expensive and every hour saved in doing a pump or filter element changeout is important.

The ready availability of replacement components such as the pumps is also important, so we specialise on utilising readily available components that can be obtained quickly and at a reasonable cost within Australia.

We have built systems that are air to oil cooled, water to oil cooled and chilled water to oil cooled, so we have the experience to meet your expectations and site requirements.

Cylinders

Perrott Engineering can custom design and build hydraulic cylinders and replacement components to suit your specific application. We have built many custom hydraulic cylinders to suit our client’s needs in applications from marine steering systems, to drilling rigs for the oil and gas industry, to cranes for shipyards. We can manufacture with special materials such as stainless steels to suit arduous operating environments or incorporate special valving into the cylinder design.

 

Hydraulic Service Equipment

Some of the specialist hydraulic servicing equipment that Perrott Engineering has manufactured for clients in the past are such items as cylinder pull down benches of varying sizes and lengths, pump and motor test benches and honing machines.

The cylinder pull down benches and honing machine shown in this publication were all designed and manufactured in house by Perrott Engineering and have been designed based on the experience and knowledge gained in our 45 years in general engineering and 30 plus years specialising in hydraulic servicing.

We don’t just design and manufacture this equipment, we use it in our service centre every day and as a result, we know what works best and does the job in the most economical time and manner. We also build for quality and this will cost more in the initial purchase, but this extra capital cost is repaid many times over with reliability, functionality and backup service.
