Directional Control Valves (DCVs) do so by directing the path of hydraulic fluid (flow) through a circuit. They are used to start, stop, slow, accelerate, and change the direction of motion in a cylinder.The internal control element of a DCV (sliding spool, rotary spool, or ball) is designed for all Read More

Directional control valves are used to control the direction and movement of hydraulic fluid through a system. They are often referred to as switching valves, and come in three main categories: hydraulic check valves, directional spool valves and poppet valves that make up the different types of con Read More

Pneumatic Cylinder A pneumatic cylinder is a special type device that uses the energy created by compressed gas to create a force for alternating linear motion. Since that “pneuma” is the Greek word for air, a pneumatic cylinder may also be called an air cylinder. A force is applied into th Read More

TerminologyThe terminology surrounding safety valves can sometimes be confusing due to the diverse range of pressure relief devices available and the differing standards across various regions. In essence, both "safety valve" and "safety relief valve" are broad terms used to describe pressure relief Read More

REVERSING AND RESETTING TIMEGenerally from the electromagnet energized to the spool commutation termination of the time for the commutation time of the electromagnetic reversing valve.From the electromagnet power off to the spool back to the initial position of the time for the electromagnetic re Read More

The pump is an integral part of any hydraulic system that receives mechanical energy and transforms it into fluid energy. This process takes place inside the hydraulic system. The mechanical energy comes from the "prime mover," which could be the power take-off or the engine of the truck.Hydraulic p Read More

Hydraulic Pump TypesThere are three primary types of hydraulic pumps: gear, piston, and vane pumps. These pump types are further classified based on their functions. For instance, there are fixed displacement and variable displacement pump types.Electric PumpsElectric hydraulic pumps are driven by e Read More

HYDRAULIC SOLENOID VALVE DEFINITIONHydraulic solenoid valve is used to control the fluid a basic component of automation, belongs to the actuator.Hydraulic solenoid valve is used to control the direction of hydraulic flow, and the mechanical devices in factories are generally controlled by hydraulic Read More

Hydraulic cylinders have many applications in the hydraulic industry. Most of the time, the cylinder performs work by converting the energy into fluids. The mode of conversion leads to many types of hydraulic cylinders. Find below the most common types of hydraulic cylinders you can buy.1. Single Ac Read More
