Environmental regulations for road vehicles are becoming increasingly stringent, and one way to reduce CO2 emissions may be to eliminate mechanical V-belts or power take-offs from future commercial vehicles. Energy-efficient electrohydraulic systems, such as the latest Smart PowerPacks from Bucher Hydraulics, provide a viable alternative. Last year, the EU adopted a European Climate Law with […]

Swing-axle cylinders combine travel comfort with rigid work platform
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, […]
Proportional flow control valves for every application
In hydraulic systems, proportional flow control valves ensure that flow rates remain virtually constant. In doing so, they have to meet a large number of performance criteria that extend beyond their core function. According to engineers at Bucher Hydraulics, manufacturers and operators of mobile machines are increasingly placing a special emphasis on energy efficiency. Flow […]
