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 […]
Danfoss introduces counterbalance valve for H1B bent-axis motor
Danfoss Power Solutions has introduced a counterbalance valve for its H1B bent-axis motor, expanding the motor’s application to open-circuit systems. Specifically designed for the motor, the counterbalance valve enables original equipment manufacturers to harness the benefits of the variable-speed H1B motor, including compact design and efficiency, in high-power drivetrain and winching applications while preventing overspeed […]
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 […]
HydraForce Partners with Tan Delta Systems to provide real-time oil quality data in the field
HydraForce has partnered with Tan Delta Systems, a manufacturer of real-time oil quality monitoring sensors and systems, to provide valuable real-time data about machine oil quality and expand its capabilities within the telematics market. “We’re constantly looking for innovative ways to help our customers monitor their equipment and share valuable insights to manage their fleet […]
Electric-hydraulic hybrid systems reduce emissions in refuse collection vehicles
Hybrid systems bridge the road to electrification with small batteries and readily available components. Electrification aims to eliminate vehicle emissions that degrade air quality and negatively impact public health. From a technical standpoint, electrification makes sense for light- and medium-duty vehicles, such as cars and small construction equipment. However, electrification is more complex for larger […]
Extra-duty overhung load adaptors maximize life at higher loads and operating speeds
Zero-Max is now offering three entirely new Extra-Duty Overhung Load Adaptor (OHLA) models. Based on decades of experience solving overhung load issues in the most demanding applications, the new designs feature a number of carefully chosen upgrades including spherical bearings, enhanced sealing technology, stronger shafts and a longer profile delivering increased operating life, heavy load […]
Black Bruin to showcase hydraulic direct drives at Bauma
Black Bruin will be exhibiting its radial piston hydraulic motors for mobile and industrial applications at BAUMA 2022, at stand 306 in hall B4 (the Finland Pavillion). The S-series of hydraulic direct drives is the company’s response to the various needs in construction, mining, and material handling applications to produce continuous high power efficiently without […]
