New Patch Imaging Kit enhances contamination monitoring

02 October, 2024

MP Filtri has expanded its range of contamination monitoring products with the introduction of a new Patch Imaging Kit, designed to enhance fluid analysis capabilities in hydraulic systems. This latest innovation complements MP Filtri’s existing portable and inline particle analysers, which offer real-time, highly accurate detection of contaminants in fluids. The Patch Imaging Kit brings an additional layer of insight by allowing operators to assess particles under a digital microscope, helping to pinpoint the root cause of system contamination


Addressing risks with conventional screw-in check valves

01 October, 2024

Hydraulic check valves play an essential role in hydraulic systems, ensuring proper flow direction and preventing backflow. According to experts at WEBER-HYDRAULIK, there are notable quality concerns associated with conventional screw-in check valves, particularly when used in aluminium blocks. These issues highlight the potential benefits of switching to pluggable check valves.


New EtherCAT Module enhances control and integration in hydraulic and electromechanical systems

23 September, 2024

Delta Motion has announced the addition of an EtherCAT communication module to its flagship RMC200 Motion Controller range. This new module enables the RMC200 to efficiently connect to EtherCAT-enabled devices, and control electric motor drives and hydraulic valves over EtherCAT, reaffirming Delta Motion’s commitment to delivering high-performance technology solutions for servo-hydraulic and servo-electric motion applications.


Versatile crimper for extra-large fittings

18 September, 2024

Uniflex’s HM 465 is a versatile crimper for extra-large fittings. It is the successor of the company’s HM 450 and HM 480 and boasts a force capacity of 4000 kN / 400 t and a 380 mm opening, making it suitable for processing heavy or extra-large fittings and high-pressure hoses with a single machine. It features a master die length of 150 mm and an opening travel of +150 mm, enabling it to handle 8" ANSI flanges and up to 12" industrial pipe fittings without the need to change crimp dies.


Hydraulic cylinders and split flow pump solution

12 September, 2024

Mulheim Bridge showing Red support structure, Enerpac cylinder and new tram way

Enerpac cylinders and a Larzep split flow pump are playing a crucial structural role in the refurbishment of the Mülheim Suspension Bridge over the River Rhine in Cologne, Germany. During the replacement of the original steel centre frame, road, and tram track foundations, these hydraulic cylinders are being used within a temporary steel frame to prevent the two halves of the bridge from collapsing inward, which could otherwise lead to structural failure.
