Attention required
Condition history
Recorded inspections using the same criteria version. Compare load, oil temperature and hold duration before interpreting a change. No live telemetry or remaining-life prediction.

Four checks on one cylinder
The methods Mine IQ Force uses, shown on an illustrative cylinder, with photos of the same checks in Akaliko workshops.
Inspecting a cylinder barrel, Akaliko THS Visual inspection
Looks for early wear you can see, such as scoring on the rod or a leak at the gland.

Thermal analysis
A heat view of the cylinder. Heat that gathers in one place, such as the gland, can point to friction or a failing seal.

Runs the cylinder through its full stroke to check that it extends, holds and retracts as it should.
Visual findings. Thermal readings. Performance checks.

What it is designed to do
These are the software’s aims, not measured results.
Detect early wear
Find wear while the cylinder is still working.
Prevent failures
Act on a finding before it becomes a breakdown.
Reduce downtime
Turn unplanned stops into planned work.
Extend cylinder life
Keep each cylinder in service for longer.
When a check finds something
Where a finding calls for work on the cylinder, these are the Akaliko capabilities that do it.
Cylinder repair benches and a test console, Akaliko Mongolia Repair & remanufacturing
Cylinder repair and rebuilds at Akaliko’s locations.
Cylinders wrapped for dispatch, Akaliko Mongolia Exchange & inventory
Swap a worn cylinder for a prepared one, on terms agreed with you.
Marking a measured bore on a rod eye, Ariya Quanzhou Engineering
Engineering assessment and cylinder design changes, for example where failures recur.
