Performing pin and bushing turns helps to restore the proper alignment of the tracks, which can improve all of these factors. Increased track life. Worn pins and bushings can also cause the tracks to wear out prematurely. By performing regular pin and bushing turns, you can help to extend the life of your tracks and save money on replacement costs.

• How to Safely Use a Portable Track Pin Press

  If you’ve ever had a machine break down in the field, you know how tempting it can be to try to make a quick fix yourself. Often that means grabbing a sledgehammer or other tool and taking a few whacks at the broken pin. For reasons that should be obvious, this isn’t a great idea. You’re much better off using a track pin press.  Why You Should Keep the Hammer in the Toolbox Track pin presses are a much safer alternative to using sledgehammers or other strong-arm methods when removing and installing track pins. They use hydraulic pressure to apply force to the pin, which eliminates the need for manual hammering. This reduces the risk of injury, especially to the hands and arms, and prevents damage to the equipment.  WTC Machinery offers portable track pin presses designed specifically to make field operations easier and safer. They are available in different sizes and configurations, with ratings from 100 tons on up to 250 tons, giving you plenty of power for even the largest dozers and excavators.  Our portable track pin presses are available as standalone ...

• What is a Track Press?

  

  What is a Track Press?  Unless you’ve spent a lot of time around excavators, bulldozers, tanks, or other machinery that utilizes tracks for movement, you’ve probably never heard of a track press. This essential piece of equipment is common in the construction and mining industries, where lifting and movement of heavy materials occurs on a daily basis.  What Does a Track Pin Press Do?  A track press, also known as a track pin press, is a specialized tool used in heavy equipment maintenance and repair. It is designed to remove and install track pins, bushings, and links on tracked vehicles, such as bulldozers, excavators, and crawler cranes.  The tracks of these heavy machines consist of multiple interconnected links, and over time, the pins and bushings wear out or become damaged due to the intense use and harsh operating conditions. A track pin press makes replacing and repairing these components easier and more efficient.  How Does a Track Press Work?  A track press typically consists of a hydraulic system that exerts substantial force to loosen or tighten the old pins and bushings from the track links ...
