For hydrostatic drives in construction and agricultural machines, I. C.-engines and hydraulic pumps are directly coupled. Both units are connected by a flange coupling. This connection must meet a number of requirements — although primarily it must transmit the power reliably, enabling the machine to perform the pending operations as requested. This is done via […]
What is a flow divider?
A flow divider is a hydraulic device that, as the name implies, separates flow into two or more parts. This lets a single pump simultaneously power more than one circuit. Two types of proportional flow dividers are the spool version; and the gear or rotary design. Spool dividers split the input flow proportionally into two […]
Muncie Power releases first power take-off in Titan Class series
Muncie Power’s Titan MC1 Series power take-off is the first in the company’s lineup of Titan Class power take-offs to be released. The Titan MC1 is a medium-duty, 10-bolt clutch shift PTO designed to fit Allison 3000/4000 Series transmissions. Applicable within nearly any market using a Class 6 to Class 8 truck with an automatic […]
Miniature linear position sensors operate reliably in high-pressure hydraulics
The operating environments of many hydraulic and materials testing systems require linear position sensors that operate reliably under continuous high pressures and temperatures while fitting into restrictive spaces. NewTek Sensor Solutions, Pennsauken, N.J., offers vented versions of its M-375 miniature LVDT linear position sensors specially designed to provide the highest level of reliability and accuracy under […]
Webtec to highlight motor control valves, measurement solutions at bauma
Webtec will be showcasing its latest range of hydraulic components and hydraulic test equipment at this year’s Bauma 2019, which for the first time will include the recently launched CV120 series. This compact combination valve provides a complete solution to hydraulic motor control for mobile machinery and reduces both space and pressure drop in machinery […]
Electrification exposes hydraulic-pump shortcomings
Heightened concerns over climate change and global warming are key reasons for the growing interest in zero-emission vehicles. Battery-electric mobile machines, while still mainly in the prototype stage, may require hydraulic-pumps and variable-speed drives to evolve to suit future applications. Hydraulic pumps are high-performance components. However, according to engineers at Bucher Hydraulics, Klettgau, Germany, they […]
Solenoid-operated relief valves reduce system complexity while increasing safety
New to Sun’s cartridge portfolio and to the FLeX Series family, Sun Hydraulics now offers four new solenoid-operated relief valves. With a 2-stage, field-adjustable design, the RVC valves offer precise and dependable pressure regulation with up to 25 gpm (100 lpm) flow rates. Sun’s RVC valves offer fully adjustable, ventable and blockable relief functions for […]
