Hydraulic fluid test matches real-world conditions
Thanks to higher operating pressures, power density in many hydraulic systems has increased significantly in recent years. That can mean higher performance, smaller and lighter components and better efficiency, although it can also increase the susceptibility to wear and premature failures. Newer pumps and motors are built to handle higher loads … [Read more...] about Hydraulic fluid test matches real-world conditions
Eliminating a weak-link in hydraulic performance with new hydraulic fluid test
In recent years, operating pressure and power density in many newer hydraulic systems have increased significantly. Not too long ago, pressures in circuits topped out at around 3,000 psi. Now, systems running at 5,000 to 7,000 psi or more aren’t uncommon. On one hand, that can mean better performance, smaller and lighter components and, possibly, … [Read more...] about Eliminating a weak-link in hydraulic performance with new hydraulic fluid test
Easy to use hydraulic filter select tool
Bosch Rexroth has developed a filter sizing program that allows users to input various parameters such as fluid type, fluid viscosity, system temperature, and micron rating to evaluate the pressure drop across Rexroth filters. The sizing software (Filter Select) can be used to quickly determine the best filter for a specific hydraulic application … [Read more...] about Easy to use hydraulic filter select tool
