Hydraulic vs. all-electric injection molding machines compared for energy efficiency, applications, and business ...

Energy efficiency is often considered to be the main advantage of electric injection molding machines, but that neglects many ...

Efficiency is a key design criteria for almost all components and systems on a piece of heavy-duty equipment—as well as for the machine itself. Hydraulics are one of the many areas in which ...

The Komatsu hydrostatic drive uses a high-speed and low-speed motor. When lots of torque is needed, both drives work through the crankcase; but when the machine gets up to speed, a clutch removes the ...

These days, almost every component and system in a piece of heavy equipment is becoming more intelligent through the incorporation of sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT). “The core vision of IoT ...

Hybrid injection molding machines offer the superior clamping force of hydraulic machines and the precision, repeatability, energy savings, and reduced noise of electric machines. On the shop floor, ...

Mobile and industrial equipment manufacturers, and their customers, are rapidly embracing a new class of electronic controls for open-circuit, medium-pressure piston pumps like the Parker P1/PD Series ...

From utility trenching and road repairs to foundation removal and site preparation, hydraulic breakers are often deployed in ...
