Trav-L-Cutter® SD Upgrade Kit Hydraulic

If your existing Trav-L-Cutter Model HE (hydraulic) is in need of repair, or you are looking to bring your existing machine up to the newest Trav-L-Cutter Super Duty specification, Wachs offers the Trav-L-Cutter Super Duty (TLC SD) Upgrade Kit for select Model HE Hydraulic machine tools.

Upgraded Components

The Wachs TLC SD Upgrade Kit includes the major internal assemblies, including the spindle cutter drive and feed drive, needed to upgrade your Wachs Trav-L-Cutter to the newest SD specification at a fraction of the cost of a new machine.

These internal components for the Trav-L-Cutter deliver longer life and superior performance, allowing it to run cooler for longer periods in extreme climates. This greatly expanded duty cycle is why the newest version of the Trav-L-Cutter, and the Upgrade Kit, is dubbed “Super Duty”.

Offered for both pneumatic and hydraulic Trav-L-Cutter models, the SD Upgrade Kits include:

• A newly redesigned, larger and more robust cutter spindle gearbox assembly, with cast in place cooling fins and special heat-dissipating coating.
• Four new spindle assembly replacement compression springs
• New design feed drive assembly with cast in cooling fins, chain tensioner and revised drive ratios
• New longer chain and master link, designed for use with the new feed system assembly with chain tensioner
• New spindle and feed system housings come prefilled with long lasting synthetic fluid
• New heavy duty overload coupling connecting the secondary air motor to the feed drive, designed to accommodate the machines increased duty cycle
• All required installation hardware

Installation Options

While these kits are designed for installation by a mechanic or technician, factory installation service is available as an extra cost option.
