Decentralised hydraulics in the control of flaps and conveyor belts in harvesters
Many ancillary functions and individual modules can be found in highly specialised agricultural machinery, which are used in all agricultural work processes. Not all of them have to be supplied directly with the central hydraulics - using small decentralised mini hydraulic power units to drive and control these functions can minimise tubing and simplify installation close to the control function.
