Advances in hydraulic connection technology are again evolving within mobile machinery and tool/attachment design while positively impacting professional use. The increased demands of worksite productivity and efficiency by the expert user have challenged manufacturers of machines, attachments, and component suppliers with technological improvements. After all, “time is money.” This article focuses on the advances of […]
Hydraulics with a twist: Swivel connections remove stress from hose routing
Designers of hydraulics circuits are typically tasked with ensuring that hose and connections are safe, efficient, leak free and easy to maintain. And it goes without saying that they need to be cost effective and last a long time. That’s readily accomplished when a properly sized hose is stationary and well protected yet easily accessible. […]
Hose assembly technologies at Fluid Power Technology Conference
Understanding fluid conveyance technologies is critical to safe hydraulic and pneumatic system design. This year’s Fluid Power Technology Conference, to be held at MSOE May 14-15, will highlight the importance of multi-connect and adapter, hose and tubing technologies, with presentations by CEJN and Tompkins. First up on Tuesday morning at 10:30 a.m. will be CEJN’s […]
CEJN reminds users to review their workplace during National Safety Month
June is National Safety Month —CEJN reminds users to check if their workplace is safe. Now is the time to look closely at the safety and performance in your compressed air workplace. CEJN’s safety-focused pneumatic products can help prevent employee injuries by solving problems like: Hose whip injury Leakage at the hose fittings Worker fatigue Accidents […]
Quick-connect couplings for higher pressures
Upgraded range of ultra-high-pressure hydraulic quick-connect couplings, Next Generation series, provides safe operation. Quick-action safety lock uses a smooth locking ring instead of screw lock. Unintentional disconnection is practically eliminated; a quick twist of the bayonet lock and the coupling is secured. The CEJN Metal Seal (CMS) features a smaller diameter, keeping stress to a […]

CEJN North America will be showcasing its series 140 ultra high-pressure hydraulic couplings and its series 217 flat-face couplings and nipples at this year’s Fluid Power Technology Conference at the Milwaukee School of Engineering. Visitors can see this and other CEJN coupling technologies at the FPTC May 15-16. Series 140 for ultra-high pressures Featuring a non-drip design […]
CEJN to host a hydraulics symposium for the energy market
CEJN North America will host its Energy Market-Hydraulics Symposium August 23-24, in Houston. CEJN’s ultra high-pressure safety experts will offer informative, educational presentations focused on ultra high-pressure hydraulics and the energy market. In addition, experts from a variety of industries will be on hand with presentations during the two-day free event. Networking opportunities will be available […]
How can quick couplings improve hose safety?
Hydraulic and pneumatic hose safety can be ensured by using quick-connect fittings or quick couplings that make a repeated connection and disconnection between fluid lines and the equipment they are attached to. Quick couplings are used in both hydraulic and pneumatic applications, and are designed for easy hand operation. These safety devices feature a male […]
CEJN encourages compressed air safety for National Safety Month
National Safety Month creates the perfect opportunity to evaluate safety and performance in the workplace, especially if when using compressed air. While it may seem like everything is humming along fine, employee safety must be a priority. As a result, CEJN is committed to improving workplace safety for its customers with its safety-focused pneumatic products that […]
Safety guidelines for high-pressure hydraulics
Handling high-pressure hydraulics is serious business. It often involves working in confined spaces, lifting heavy machine parts or dealing with weather extremes in remote locations. This has led to a demand for smaller and lighter tools to simplify tasks. But that necessitates higher pressure to generate sufficient force or torque. To make engineers and maintenance […]
