Hi good day.. i am asking for your help, advice or suggestion pls.. i buy this Txedm041 double cylinder pcp air compressor last december 8 2022 and recieve last decmeber 15 2022. I used it perfectly. But last march 1 2023 i found out that has a crack in this area. I dont know what are the causes of this broken crankcase. I just want to hear what can you say about this and how will i fix this pls. Hindi naman po ito na bagsak or na untog bakit kaya nagka ganito? Pls help me po. I cant use it because the air cant flow to the top because of the breakage i think.

That appears to be a stress fracture, possibly caused by harmonic vibration. Maybe a bad casting. Can't know for certain but you may be able to repair and take preventative measure going forward.
If it is difficult for you to obtain a replacement crankcase, a 2-part epoxy or tig welding are possible options.
I would check that all the feet are equally tightened and level, maybe move the compressor to a different surface and only run for brief intervals.
I hope none of this sounds condescending, I'm conscious of this forum attracting members from different parts of the world where availability may be an issue and practical solutions must be sought out.

Look on aliexpress or with your seller. Replace crank case. I'm concerned that your temperature sensor is not installed, black wire hanging.

Has this happened to many of the Tuxing compressors? Anyone see this before? Perhaps all of our Tuxing's will meet the same plight. At least one other fellow removed the feet and installed a better anti vibration setup because he knew all too well the stock ones were no good for vibration. I'm gonna be looking for something better myself.
If we could isolate the crankcase from everything else and put springs under it that might work.

Yes that is right. But my seller dont seen me anymore. His last reply is the price of the crankcase is 3500php
Labor is 2500php
Mobilization 400php
Shipping 5000 to 6000php
Not included pa daw kung anung ma eencounter na damage during repair. So mpre or less nasa 12000php na at hindi pa sure if ma aayos na sa amount na yun. Suppose to be wala na sanang labor kasi under waranty la naman yan. But my seller is so hasle. Can u suggest where i can contact to help my problem?

First off I wouldn't use epoxy to fix it. Tig welded would be your best bet as long as the welder knows his/her stuff.

Can i ask what are the posible issues that i will encounter during the removal and returning of the crankcase after it welded?

I wouldn’t think that the compressor won’t build pressure because of that crack, I would look at the line with the obviously bad seal in the picture.

Two years ago that happened to my YH because ...
Two piece epoxy and I ran it for over an extra year until I bought a replacement YH.

Agree the seal and compression fitting are the likely pressure problem. Crank case is only an oil leak problem. Parts on aliexpress. Simple replacement just takes time. https://www.tuxingcn.com/

Tig it yourself ua, but go pay a welder his rate may as well go buy another.. or hope his work dont crack out or causes another .. broke is broke on that stuff.
Thing i was wondering is that the crankcase itself or more empty space between the actual sealed crankcase like a bellhousing for the motor to mount to?
( I dont see like oil or staining from oil comming out from the crack.).
You got more bolts holding it on so expoy may do the job just fine just to hold it firm and stop the crack getting worse.

Unfortunately a dealer not honoring a defective product in the Philippines is a common practice, for whatever reason.
A expat buddy of mine had this happen with an external hard drive he bought in Baguio a few years back.
His successful recourse was to take the case to the NBI, National Bureau of Investigation, they investigated made their finding and the vender refunded his money.
That compressor should not have failed you in such a short life, the seller in a perfect world should handle this through Tuxing but instead it looks like he is leaving you out in the rain. My advice is to contact both the NBI and Tuxing, in that order.
Good luck,
