What are the advantages of hydraulic tubing?

June 2, 2022 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

hydraulic-tubing-feature-AdobeStock_258327775

Tubing, when done well, is highly reliable and maintenance-free. The only time you change tube is typically when a modification or upgrade is done to the machine. Tubing resists motion or vibration that, although possibly transmitted, doesn’t cause it to shake or move the assembly itself. However, the inherent flexibility of hose permits chaffing, rubbing […]

Common considerations for hydraulic tubing

November 2, 2021 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

hydraulic tubing AdobeStock_212468349

By Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor The metal tube assemblies used in hydraulic plumbing applications offer one of the most reliable methods to transfer fluid under pressure. Still, their factors for design and installation are sightly more complicated than hose assemblies, which are traditionally more popular. Mills make seamless tubing used for hydraulic systems by pushing […]

Making quick, safe connections at sea with non-weld flange systems

April 28, 2021 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

Non-weld flange systems in offshore

Using non-welded flange systems, such as Parker’s High Performance Flange connectors, reduces errors and saves hours on installation in mission-critical marine applications. Hydraulic high-pressure connections in the marine market must withstand harsh conditions, vibrations and other environmental impacts. Traditional welded connections do not always withstand these rigorous demands, and often require time-consuming and costly post-welding pipe […]

Updated software ensures production safety in tube processing

November 5, 2020 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

The transfluid software t project is able to generate and simulate tubes inline to other tubes specialy for the hydraulic.

The high-tech engineering company transfluid from Schmallenberg has further developed its t project software. The two versions cover different areas of tube processing. The connection to CAD, BDE (Manufacturing Execution System) or ERP systems, to bending machines or bending robots makes the software flexible for each task. This way it is possible to test different […]

Mass customization comes to hydraulic tubing

June 25, 2020 By Ken Korane Leave a Comment

Mobile-machine builders are requiring ever more intricate and complex tubing configurations that handle higher pressures and permit more-efficient flows.

Flexible manufacturing of hydraulic tubing assemblies has become an essential part of agricultural equipment production. Efficient and cost-effective manufacturing of agricultural and mobile equipment today depends on highly engineered production systems. And that holds not only for complete machines like tractors and combine harvesters, but also for essential subsystems like hydraulic tubing assemblies. transfluid Maschinenbau […]

How are clamping systems used in fluid power?

May 20, 2020 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

Stauff-Clamps-feature

From a fluid power design perspective, the circuit and subsequent major components take the majority of the focus. Actuators, valves, pumps and conditioning components rightfully take center stage, leaving accessory components out of the design stage and left for the technicians to worry about during fabrication. However, factoring all parts – no matter how insignificant […]
