Case Studies

Taylor Made Projects

For the Wellington train network refurbishment our customer gave us strict technical, speed, force, length of pull, noise emission, size and weight constraints to build an overhead cable puller. What we delivered surpassed all expectations and is still in use on the next stage of the refurbishment.

Cylinder Repairs

From seal replacement to complete manufacture, we can provide you the best service possible. Axiom Hydraulics Ltd. invested soon after we opened in a hydraulic tool to remove the most resistant piston nuts or cylinder heads. This equipment is unique in the Wellington area. Not only can we undo the piston nut but more importantly we will re-torque it to the manufacturer’s specification. “The right tool for the right job”. After any repair, hydraulic cylinders are tested for leakage, so we are sure we have delivered a perfectly repaired product. For specific cylinders, Axiom Hydraulics Ltd. works in partnership with two major New Zealand cylinder manufacturers, so when support or service is needed we can source the parts quickly.

Specialised Vehicles

By special request of the customer, Axiom Hydraulics Ltd. worked in conjunction with the equipment manufacturer to create a dual recovery system (electric and manual) in case of vehicle breakdown. Constraints here were height and stroke of the hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic circuit with interlocks and safeties, electric and manual possibilities of recovery.
