Malek) visited the V B C HYDRAULIC PUMP, NARODA.

VBC HYDRAULICS Established in 1995. VBC - taking full advantage of its forward
- looking management policies and by incorporating unique R&D activities has made
constant effort on Development and Innovation. as a result VBC HYDRAULICS currently
produce a wide variety of outstanding HYDRAULIC GEAR PUMPS for Agriculture &
construction machinery, industrial hydraulic power pack, rubber and plastic molding
machinery, material handling equipment and so many other industrial application with
global standards.
INTRODUCTION

The corporation, which relies on its own design & patents, advance technology &
management, always keep improving to be better. VBC HYDRAULICS currently produce
a wide variety of outstanding HYDRAULIC GEAR PUMPS for Agriculture & construction
machinery, and also Hydraulic Motors, D.C. Power back and Hydraulic accessories
which is also mention below,
 Hydraulic pumps
 Hydraulic motors
 D.C power back
 Hydraulic accessories
HYDRAULIC PUMPS

VBC began manufacturing gear pumps for the growing Hydraulic Application  in
the 1995. Today, these products are delivered to customers worldwide for a broad
range of mobile and industrial applications. Our engineers have a unique understanding
of the capabilities of gear pumps that enables them to go beyond the traditional limits to
meet specific application needs. The wide variety of VBC gear  pump designs and
options enables us to configure different rotating group and body combinations along
with multiple flange, shaft, port and valve options to meet the specific performance
needs of the application.

Figure 1 Gear Pump

VBC Hydraulics manufacturing hydraulic gear pump with Displacements range

from 1cc to 200 cc in single or multiple section(upto  4th  stage.) pump configurations
and in cast iron or aluminium bodies. Control valves can be integrated for additional
functionality..  VBC will customize to the customer's Hydraulic function requirements,
whether in terms of space envelope, noise, vibration, speed, power density or
integrating components to simplify the system. Their combination of efficiency and
economy make VBC Hydraulics hydraulic gear pump the first choice of many customers
in the construction, agriculture, material handling, aerial lift, turf care, utility, forestry,
mining, earthmoving, molding, primary metal, automotive manufacturing,
entertainment, and machine tool industries.

The main product of the VBC Hydraulic Pump is manufacturing Hydraulic

pumps, and In this industry specially manufacturing of external gear pump. So, there are
following materials and departments are required
  Raw material handling
 Manufacturing department
 Quality assurance department
 Assembly department
 Testing department
V.B.C. Hydraulic Pumps manufacturing different types of pumps.

 Gear pump
 Lob pump
 Screw pump
 Reciprocating pump
 Tube pump

Working principle of pump:-

Here pump works on principle of sucks the air by pressure difference between
atmosphere and hosing of pump. After the compression, the air discharged from the
housing from discharge valve. It happens due to pressure difference between
atmosphere and housing, high pressure to low pressure.

Manufacturing of gear pumps:-

In the manufacturing of gear pumps, it is the assembly of different types of parts

which are manufacturing in VBC Hydraulic. Which are followings,

 Gear housing
 Bushing
 Housing
 Cover-plates housing
Gear housing:-

Figure 2 Hobbing Machine

In gear housing, there are two spur gear meshes with each other. Which are
manufacturing by gear hobbing process in CNC machine. The cast iron is main raw
material for gear manufacturing in this company. The manufacturing rate of the gear is
very short. During the short time the spur gear is manufacturing. For meshes of teeth,
teeth should be well surface finished

Figure 3 Driver Gear

Figure 4 Driven Gear

From these two gear one is driver gear and another is driven gear, driver gear
gets power from the electric motor and this power gets driven gear from the driver
gear. For this moment the teeth profile must be involute type. And the pitch of two gear
must be same. For this surface gear shaving process uses. Which is very simple process
for surface finishing of the gear.

The gear meshes with each other from external surface and they meshes with
inner surface of housing. On the top and bottom surface there are two bushes mounts
on the gear shaft.
 Figure 5 Pinion

Application of external gear pump:-

 In pumping station
 In JCB
 In hydra
 In many cranes (hydraulic)
 In Hitachi
 In fork lifts
 In shipping industry
Bushes:-

Bushes mounts on the upper and lower surface of the gear. Bushes prevents the
oil which outcomes from the housing of the gears and housing which outcomes from the
housing due to pressure difference.

Bushes meshes with upper surface of the gear and of gear and also meshes with
each other from inside surface and meshes with inner surface of housing On the upper
surface due to pressure from oil outcomes,

Figure 6 Bushes
Housing:-

Housing which prevents the dynamic moment of the gear, which moves in
surroundings so housing prevents the moment of the gears.

Figure 7 Housing

In housing oil comperes between the gear housing on high pressure, and after
compression oil outcomes from the discharge valves,

CoverPlates housing:-

Cover–plates prevents the presume difference between atmospheres and housing

cover-plates mounts bushes and then also prevents the oil is outcome from the housing
by mounting the plates on upper surface and lower surface the housing of pumps are
enclosed and the assembly to assemble different parts.
In this department work as starting with raw material in or of cast iron and
aluminium plates.Main purpose of fitting cover plates is supporting to gear and
bushings. There are four holes to fit the body with the housing.

Figure 8 Cover Plate Housing

INSPECTION DEPARTMENT

After the assembled of all body parts it checks in the quality control department.
Where the different machines available for checks the surface dimensions which are
required for pumps. There are also checked the dimensions of the spur gear, bushes and
housings. In the inspection department checking the all parameters of gears (diameter,
length, width, pitch of gear and thread etc.)

Inspection department is inspect tolerances and allowances also if the part

dimension not in its limit so part was rejected and helping prevent the fault.Inspection
department is most important department for maintain quality and efficiency of an
object.

VBC hydraulics privet limited company is deserve the quality assurance.

FINAL TESTING DEPARTMENT

In this department final test of product by testing machine, and decided

parameters like pressure, temperature, mass flow rate and efficiency of pump.

Here the showing final testing machine fig given below.

After the final testing a product will ready to use and ready to sale in market.
