High-efficiency hydraulics for electrically powered machines

October 20, 2020 By Mary Gannon

Mobile machines of the future, powered by electric and hybrid drives, will demand more-efficient hydraulic components and systems. Fortunately, a number of designs that minimize losses are in the works.   

Flow-on-Demand systems enable energy-saving mobile drive technology. By Dierk Peitsmeyer, Product Portfolio Manager, Bucher Hydraulics, Klettgau, Germany The Paris Agreement is the landmark environmental accord that aims to address the negative impacts of climate change and substantially reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. Although the U.S. will formally withdraw from the Agreement on Nov. 4, nearly […]

New design overcomes piston-pump limitations

January 21, 2020 By Ken Korane

Piston pumps and motors have been on the market for many years, and they are arguably one of the most important components in many hydraulic circuits. The basic design behind a conventional piston pump usually has seven or nine pistons that convert mechanical torque into oil pressure. In a piston motor, the process is reversed. […]

Mobile hydraulics gets an unwelcome jolt

June 12, 2019 By Ken Korane

Komatsu bauma 1 is a small-electric-excavator with no mobile hydraulics

One unmistakable take-away from this year’s bauma show was the buzz surrounding electrification. The idea of massive mobile machines running only on batteries may seem far-fetched, but for smaller equipment it has become a reality. At every turn, major manufacturers like Cat, Kobelco, Komatsu and Volvo to niche players like Ecovolve and Giant featured electrified […]

Bucher Hydraulics announces “revolutionary” new pump design

May 17, 2019 By Ken Korane

The performance of traditional hydraulic pumps has not kept up with increasingly stringent customer demands and new application requirements, according to officials at Bucher Hydraulics, Klettgau, Germany. They’re tackling such concerns with a new design for piston pumps and motors called the AX series. The AX is not an evolutionary improvement over existing products, said […]

Electrification exposes hydraulic-pump shortcomings

February 14, 2019 By Ken Korane

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 […]
