Versatile machines thanks to electronic pump controls

November 16, 2021 By Ken Korane

Manufacturers of mobile machines must decide whether to control their pumps using pressure, torque or swivel angle — and always have to accept compromises as a result. The same applies to numerous other hardware parameters which, once defined, stay the same throughout a machine’s service life. According to Simon Dreher, an excavator industry specialist with […]

By Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor In fluid power, safety is always a concern. Everyone understands the force capacity of hydraulic actuators (which explains why some YouTube hydraulic press channels have millions of subscribers). Indeed, a high-powered hydraulic press can make nearly any material appear no stronger than modelling clay. It’s wise to respect the power […]

Swing-axle cylinders combine travel comfort with rigid work platform

November 8, 2021 By Ken Korane

Mobile machines have to meet widely differing requirements. To get to a job site, they need good off-road capability. While they are working, however, high rigidity and stability are essential. Add to that are increasingly demanding safety and environmental regulations. Swing-axle cylinders are built to fulfill all these requirements. According to engineers at Bucher Hydraulics, […]

Rexroth’s Atom motor, condition monitoring technologies enable uptime in mining

October 27, 2021 By Mary Gannon

Bosch Rexroth MinExpo haaglunds atom and condition monitoring

The big highlight for Bosch Rexroth at this year’s MinExpo held in September was its new Hägglunds Atom hydraulic motor. Smaller than traditionally offered over the years, the Atom was actually developed several years ago under a different name but at a much lower pressure rating, said Brian Howell, Hägglunds Sales Manager. But the market […]

The venerable vane pump – is it still relevant?

October 7, 2021 By Mary Gannon

Specific applications, like injection molding, are ideal for vane pumps. Here, the VSQ (Vane-Speed-Quiet) pump series from Eaton was designed to provide operators with a minimum speed range of 0-50 rpm to decrease energy usage and improve efficiency in dynamic industrial applications like injection molding or metal forming.

By Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor I’ll cut to the chase; the best days for the hydraulic vane pump are likely behind us but they’re not quite ready for extinction. Let me tell you why I feel this way. Just like much of technology from the early days of the twentieth century, the vane pump came […]
