Hydraulic Servo Valve Repair: An Overview
The first patent for a two-stage servo valve was filed in 1946, almost 75 years ago.1 Ten years later, a patent was granted for the double nozzle-flapper two-stage valve. In those early years, electrohydraulic servo valves (EHSV) didn't perform very well, suffering...
Things to Consider When Your Hydraulic Equipment Needs Repair, Rebuilding or Remanufacturing
It is always a bad day when you hear "that sound," or find that the temperature of your hydraulic fluid is too high, or your overall equipment performance is just not up to par. When any of these things happen and it's time to get to the bottom of the issue, there are...
The Hydraulic Repair, Rebuild and Remanufacturing Industry: Part Two
In part one of this overview we discussed the history of hydraulic pump repairing, rebuilding and remanufacturing and the factors fueling the growth of the industry. The material was abstracted from an article written by P.K. Guha in Hydraulics & Pneumatics...
The Hydraulic Repair, Rebuild and Remanufacturing Industry: An Overview
The manufacturing of fluid power components is a $23.5 billion industry in the United States.1 The hydraulic pump market alone was valued at $9.78 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow to $12.59 billion by 2025.2 This projected growth will be fueled by...
Contamination and the Hydraulic Pump: An Overview
It is never a good day when you suspect that there is something "not quite right" with your hydraulic pump. You might notice an unfamiliar noise or that things are running hotter than usual or operating slower than usual. Your ears and your eyes -- and even your...
Eight More Reasons to Choose Hydraulic over Electronic Motion
Last month we presented five reasons hydraulic is more advantageous than electronic motion. The information was obtained from a white paper, Hydraulic Motion vs. Electric Motion: An Honest Comparison for the Record, which was co-authored by George Kokalis with Servo...
Five Reasons to Choose Hydraulic over Electronic Motion
George Kokalis, with Servo Kinetics, co-authored a white paper with Dr. J.F. Sarnicola, P.E., president of Sarnicola Simulation Systems, Inc., on the advantages of hydraulic motion over electronic motion. The white paper is entitled, Hydraulic Motion vs. Electric...
The Ultimate Comparison Cheat Sheet – Flight Simulator Motion Bases – Hydraulic Motion vs Electric Motion
Overload Capacity Both electric and hydraulic motion platforms are typically designed for a specific application where the payload is clearly defined. Should the payload “increase” appreciably, say by 20%, an electric system may not function adequately due to...
The Ultimate Comparison Cheat Sheet – Flight Simulator Motion Bases – Hydraulic Motion vs Electric Motion
Hydraulic Motion vs Electric Motion – A Look At The Past Over the past ten to fifteen years, there has been much fanfare and “salesmanship” information provided about electric motion platforms attributes. Very little, however, has been said about the advantages of...
