The future is sustainable and it’s here to stay
Last month, organizers for CONEXPO-CON/AGG and IFPE announced that a key focus of the 2023 events will be on next levels of sustainability in construction, highlighting the many aspects of the shows designed to ensure a sustainable future. This is a reflection of an industry moving towards a sustainable future. First up are manufacturers that […]
Efficient fluid maintenance is core to sustainability
IFPE conference programming will take in-depth looks at fluid cleanliness and life to ensure sustainable, efficient systems. As noted in my FluidLines column, both IFPE and CONEXPO-CON/AGG have a special focus on sustainability throughout the show floor and conference program. Several sessions will take looks at digitalization, electrification, and autonomy as solutions to creating more […]
Sustainable machine designs top Bauma innovations
While many compact machines boast all-electric systems, several prototype designs feature alternative options to power larger, heavier-duty equipment. At Bauma this past October, most mobile machinery makers touted new or prototype designs that feature low-carbon, sustainable systems. Electrification was a hot topic as it has been, but all-electric designs were mostly limited to compact machinery. […]
Solenoid cartridge valve delivers more flow while consuming less power
Danfoss Power Solutions announced the launch of its SLP13 two-way two-position poppet-type solenoid valve, a low-power, low-pressure-drop solution for compact equipment. The SLP13 cartridge valve features patent-pending technology that significantly reduces power consumption while increasing flow rating, which can help original equipment manufacturers meet efficiency targets and reduce manifold size and cost. Danfoss’ SLP13 valve […]
Where are compact hydraulic power units used?
By Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor Hydraulic power units are both the source of hydraulic energy and fluid conditioning. The hydraulic reservoir provides a mounting surface for the hydraulic pump and its prime mover while offering up real estate to mount filters, coolers, valves and accessories. In addition, the reservoir stores the hydraulic fluid, providing a […]
Shuttles from Innas highlighted at bauma to save fuel and increase efficiency
Shuttles are probably the most simple and cheapest option to improve the efficiency of hydraulic off-road machinery. As it promoted these devices at bauma 2022 in Munich last week, Innas highlighted that users could save up to 2,000 liters of fuel in an average off-road machine. Shuttles increase the efficiency of hydrostatic pumps and motors. […]
IQAN-G12 module enables faster and easier remote machine access
The Electronic Motion & Controls Division (EMC) of Parker Hannifin has released IQAN-G12, a CAN gateway module that uses Bluetooth wireless technology for IQAN system diagnostics on-site or remotely. The new IQAN-G12 offers a faster download speed, increased connectivity range and greater security than the predecessor module it replaces, the IQAN-G11, making it easier, quicker […]
Thorx cam lobe motors reduce space needs and shock speeds
Danfoss Power Solutions announced the launch of its Thorx family of cam lobe motors. The first product, the CLM 8 S motor, is now available. Designed for construction machinery with chain drives, such as skid steer loaders, the compact motor offers better performance, higher efficiency, and longer lifetime than other cam lobe motors. The Thorx […]
