KNOW YOUR AIR MOTORS  Vane Air Motors   Vane air motors are a type of air-powered motors that convert the energy of compressed air into mechanical motion. They operate based on the principles of rotary motion and utilize a vane mechanism to generate rotational force. Here’s a step-by-step description of […]

  Selecting an agricultural cylinder to perform a function correctly is a relatively easy task, provided that some simple steps are undertaken before deciding on which cylinders you might need for your specific application. Here are some handy things to consider… 1) “What load do I need to move”? Always […]

Air motors convert compressed air into mechanical energy and they are used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications. The Globe range of air motors is exclusive to PT Hydraulics in Australia and features a number of options including  piston and vane style air motors. Some common uses of […]

Cribbing is an essential requirement to create a sturdy, elevated, structure that is capable of supporting a heavy load.  This technique involves stacking a group of specially designed, uniform, blocks under the load to ensure stability and safe access to the load. Hydraulic devices are often used to lift heavy […]

High-force air/hydraulic pumps, also known as air over hydraulic pumps or pneumatic hydraulic pumps, combine the principles of both compressed air and hydraulic systems to generate high-pressure hydraulic fluid for various applications. These pumps are commonly used in situations where a substantial amount of force is required, such as in […]

Hydraulic hand pumps and cylinders are essential components of hydraulic systems used to generate and control mechanical motion using fluid pressure. They work together to convert human-generated mechanical force into hydraulic pressure, which is then used to move a piston or cylinder. Here’s how hydraulic hand pumps and cylinders work: […]

AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) hydraulic power units (HPUs) are both used to provide the necessary hydraulic pressure to operate various machinery and equipment. The main difference between these two types of HPUs lies in the type of electrical power they use and their respective characteristics. Power Source: […]

The Dynex range of pumps features split flow technology  to deliver hydraulic fluid to multiple circuits simultaneously and independently. This cabability is commonly used in applications where different hydraulic systems or components require varying flow rates or pressures. Split flow systems provide the advantage of more precise control over individual […]
