| Engineering and design review | Confirm the intended pile types, operating conditions, machine configuration, hydraulic functions, electrical requirements, and safety provisions before production. | Review approved drawings, component specifications, design calculations, risk controls, and revision status. Confirm that rated capacities and operating limits are defined for the specific model. | Project specifications and applicable machinery, hydraulic, and electrical safety requirements. Design limits should be established for each machine configuration. |
| Incoming material and component inspection | Receive and identify structural steel, hydraulic cylinders, pumps, valves, motors, hoses, electrical components, and purchased assemblies. | Check material certificates where specified, dimensions, surface condition, part identification, and supplier documentation. Record inspection results and traceability information for controlled components. | Approved drawings, purchase specifications, and the manufacturer’s incoming-inspection procedure. |
| Structural fabrication | Cut, form, machine, and weld the frame, clamping assemblies, support structures, and other load-bearing parts. | Inspect dimensions and alignment against drawings. Examine weld appearance and, where required by the design or inspection plan, use suitable non-destructive testing. Record repairs and re-inspections. | Approved fabrication drawings, welding procedures, inspection plans, and specified acceptance criteria. |
| Machining and surface preparation | Machine interfaces, pin holes, bearing seats, cylinder mounts, and other fitted features; prepare surfaces before coating. | Verify critical dimensions, fit, flatness, and alignment using calibrated measuring equipment. Check surface preparation and coating condition against the specified process. | Part drawings, fit requirements, coating specifications, and calibrated inspection equipment procedures. |
| Hydraulic system assembly | Install the pump, reservoir, cylinders, valves, filters, hoses, manifolds, and hydraulic connections; clean components and lines during assembly. | Check routing, connection security, cleanliness controls, fluid specification, leakage, and operation of hydraulic functions. Test pressure and settings against the approved design values rather than a generic machine-wide value. | GB/T 3766-2015, Hydraulic fluid power — General rules and safety requirements for systems and their components, where applicable; approved hydraulic schematics and test procedures. |
| Electrical and control system installation | Install wiring, control devices, sensors, protective devices, and operator interfaces according to the approved electrical drawings. | Check wiring against schematics, protective earthing, circuit protection, control response, emergency-stop function, and interlocks provided by the design. Document functional-test results. | GB/T 5226.1-2019, Safety of machinery — Electrical equipment of machines — Part 1: General requirements, where applicable; approved electrical drawings. |
| Mechanical and system integration | Fit the hydraulic and electrical assemblies to the structure; install clamps, guides, travel systems, counterweights, and other model-specific components. | Verify fastener installation, clearances, alignment, moving-part operation, guards, hose protection, and access for maintenance. Confirm that installed parts match the approved bill of materials. | Assembly drawings, torque or fastening instructions, safety review, and the manufacturer’s inspection plan. |
| Factory functional testing | Operate the completed machine through its specified hydraulic, clamping, pressing, lifting, and control functions under controlled test conditions. | Check for abnormal noise, leakage, overheating, unstable movement, and control faults. Record test conditions and results; verify rated values using the model’s approved test procedure. | Approved factory test procedure, product specification, and applicable safety requirements. Acceptance values depend on the machine design and configuration. |
| Safety and protection checks | Inspect guards, warning labels, emergency controls, access points, and electrical enclosures included in the machine design. | Confirm that safety devices operate as intended and that enclosure protection matches the specified environmental conditions. Record any corrective actions and retest results. | GB/T 4208-2017, Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code), where an IP rating is specified; applicable machinery safety requirements. |
| Final inspection and release | Complete the final review before dispatch, including machine identification, documentation, supplied accessories, and finish condition. | Review inspection and test records, confirm open issues are closed, and check that operating and maintenance documents match the delivered configuration. | Customer order, approved technical documents, final-inspection checklist, and applicable regulatory requirements. |
| Packaging and shipment preparation | Protect exposed surfaces and components, secure movable parts, and prepare the machine or components for the agreed transport method. | Check packaging condition, load restraint, moisture protection where required, and shipping-document consistency. Photograph or record the packed condition when required by the shipment plan. | Transport requirements, customer instructions, and the manufacturer’s packaging and dispatch procedure. |
