Select the right motor for your hydraulic applications
By Justin Wheeler, CFPHS, C-Series/Bent Axis Project Manager, Hydraulic Pump Div., Parker Hannifin The ideal in hydraulic system design is to match overall efficiencies to the application performance expectation. This requires the designer to first match the motor, then the pump to a specific system performance expectation. Whether the requirement is to do something within a specific time frame, […]
Harvest time troubleshooting: Replace the pump?
By Mark Pszczolkowski, Hydraulics Consultant at CD Industrial Group Inc., www.cdiginc.com When the cylinder won’t lift the load, replace the pump! That’s a very common reaction to a hydraulic system failure. Last week this situation came around again as an almost annual harvest event. I was called by a farmer I know. His harvester has […]
