With its controllable 2/2 directional cartridge valve LC2A-1X, Bosch Rexroth opens a variety of functions in hydraulics using standard parts. The series comes in 7 sizes ranging from 16 to 100. As the functionality is built from individual standard parts, engineering and assembly costs can be reduced. Circuit modifications and repairs also become less costly. […]
Next generation of electro-hydraulics from Bosch Rexroth
With the HNC100-3X Motion Control generation, Bosch Rexroth extends the possible applications for the HNC100 NC family of electro-hydraulic controls. The scalable generation in controller format controls up to four electro-hydraulic axes. Ethernet is used with SERCOS III and PROFINET RT and a parameterization interface. IndraWorks and the WinPed operating and parameterization software have become […]
New Technical Standards From NFPA
Two new technical documents have recently been published and are available from the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA). ISO 1219-1:2012 (supersedes ISO 1219-1:2006): Fluid power systems and components — Graphical symbols and circuit diagrams — Part 1: Graphical symbols for conventional use and data-processing applications [third edition] Scope: This part of ISO 1219 establishes basic […]
Build Your Own Hydraulic Test Kit From Webster Instruments

It is important that when you get on site, the equipment is easily and quickly accessible and ready to use. Webster Instruments offers individual kits to store and easily […]
Muncie 17 Series Directional Control Valves
Muncie 17 Series directional control valves are suited for a variety of hydraulic applications where flow rates are low. 17 Series valves are sectional type, meaning that valve sections can be “stacked” in any combination for the requirements of the application. They are used for both open center or closed center circuits. Activation is via […]
NOSHOK expands valve products and manufacturing capabilities
NOSHOK expanded its valve product offering and valve manufacturing capabilities. The valve portfolio features standard bore and large bore needle and manifold valves, including block and bleed valves in hard or soft seat/tip designs with ratings up to 10,000 psi. Our valve design is patented for its performance and increased pressure capabilities. They also offer […]
Changes to Muncie Power Products Hydraulic Reservoirs
Muncie Power Products added 11 new part numbers to its program. Part numbers will be changing on all reservoirs to reflect a more consistent part number system, similar to that used on PTOs and pumps. Eight base models of current design reservoirs will now be considered “Legacy” models. Muncie introduced new pricing for both its […]
Hydraulic reservoirs from Muncie Power Products
Muncie Power Products’ has steel, aluminum or polyethylene hydraulic reservoirs. They are made for continuous-duty applications that generate high amounts of heat and polyethylene reservoirs are designed for intermittent duty applications- such as dump bodies. Steel Round – Used when durability, reliability & accessibility are important Steel Upright – Solution for mounting behind the cab […]
Comatrol introduces proportional flow divider
Comatrol introduced the PFD10-OD Proportional Flow Divider for compensated flow sharing between two motors or hydraulic circuits. This circuit-saver solution takes the input flow and delivers precise flow management, giving engineers a new tool for distributing flow on their applications. The PFD10-OD is an electro-proportional, compensated, normally open, flow dividing, pre-engineered HIC. When there is […]
