Baileys Performance Solutions - Refurbished Diesel Fuel Injection and Air Charging Systems for Mining Equipment

Baileys Performance Solutions (BPS) is a third-generation engineering enterprise specialising in the refurbishment of diesel fuel injection and air charging systems to 'as factory new standards'.

As authorised importers, distributors and service partners of L'Orange, DUAP, BOSCH, Zexel / Diesel KIKI and Lucas-Bryce / Woodward, BPS operates across a wide section of automotive and industrial diesel engines representing European, US and Japanese engine makes, models and output capacities.

Our automotive division is embedded into the framework of corporate, governmental and industrial services reflecting the commitment and standards expected from public interest companies.

Diesel fuel injection technology for mobile mining equipment

Off-highway and underground mobile mining equipment has set technology standards in efficiency and anti-pollution measures, placing these mobile giants at the forefront of automotive engineering.

The prime power source of choice for mobile mining equipment are economical and reliable diesel engines with optimum fuel energy conversion properties. The key to an ever-increasing fine tuning of the combustion behaviour to specific engine requirements has been the advances in diesel fuel injection technology, which in turn have influenced the development of air charging in diesel engines.

This creates a perfect synergy effect with increased performance and fuel efficiency optimisation, as well as reduced emissions and improvements in the overall pollution management in diesel engines.

Combustion behaviour optimisation for diesel engines

By optimising the combustion behaviour of diesel engines, R&D engineers have simultaneously had to significantly lower tolerances across all components and parts, whether fitted into fuel injection or air charging systems.

Manufacturing standards also had to be upgraded to meet these new dimensions with the introduction of high-precision machine tools, fine-precision test instrumentation, test equipment and benches, corresponding with the enhancements made in design laboratories. All of these advances have found their way into the after-sales service industries, accountable for safe, reliable and cost-effective maintenance and refurbishment of these high-tech systems.

Recreated controllability in diesel engines for mining equipment

The re-creation of controllability in engine response and performance availability to suit the demanding operational tasks of mobile mining equipment is translated via the responsiveness of its fuel injection system.

Ultimately it is the fuel-air compression quality that provides spontaneity and power channelled to crank, gears or pulleys to drive a multitude of systems integrated in dump trucks, graders, diggers and dozers, plus many more mobile giants.

Refurbished fuel-air systems to OEM standards

Refurbishment effectively replicates the manufacturing process applied by our OEMs when producing these specific fuel systems to engine manufacturers' specifications. 'As factory-new refurbishment' means that genuine, new factory parts and components are merged with existing, in-use units.

Factory tolerances, which have been affected by years of harsh mining conditions, are re-created via fine engineering and high-precision machining at our works, guaranteeing the perfect match between old and new.

In-house performance and efficiency testing for diesel fuel systems

Extensive testing during the final assembly stages of all components, followed by efficiency and performance testing to OEM handbook standards, replicates the original OEM manufacturing processes.

Our comprehensive range of test benches includes Hartridge 3000 high precision metering of multi-cylinder diesels with up to 20mm injection lift, BOSCH-certified mulitpurpose test systems for both electronic and commonrail technology, right through to our heavy-duty CommonRail Test system by Robotti EU.

Refurbished diesel fuel injection and air charging systems

'As factory-new refurbishment', however, is more than new parts or factory-based test systems. It is 35 years of know-how, skills and the appreciation of what our clients expect, guaranteed by technicians and engineers working for you under the guidance of second-generation owner and managing director Stephen Bailey.

Ultimately, KRAL volumeter units, as recommended by BPS for onboard fuel efficiency monitoring, will prove our quality work over long periods of operation.

Compliance with engine overhaul schedules

From one-off fuel pump processing to batch refurbishment agreements, BPS provides a well-structured logistics process, which blends into the time schedule generally provided for engine overhaul work.

Clients located outside of Australian domestic transportation systems (clients with locations in the Pacific region for example) can take advantage of our corporate logistics services for sea or air freight arrangements from the client's site to BPS and returns (including customs clearance operations).
