Load-holding valves are used to prevent uncontrolled movements when lifting and lowering loads. In particular, when lowering, the load must be moved in a controlled manner in the direction of pull.
In…
Pumps are essential components in all hydraulic systems. There are a wide variety of designs for different application fields.
In the 42nd episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host Ralph has the Key …
Hydraulic power units generate heat during operation. If the heat dissipated by the power unit itself is not enough to prevent overheating, an external cooler must be used.
In the 41st episode of the …
Lithium-ion batteries are used in a wide variety of applications, from cell phones to electric cars. There are different cell chemistries that have different properties and advantages.
In the 40th epi…
Hydraulic power units are used in various applications, including in areas where flammable gases, mists, vapors or dusts come into contact with oxygen and can form an explosive atmosphere. For these …
The production of a battery cell is a complex process in which many machines are involved. Hydraulic systems are used in many of these machines.
In the 38th episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host …
In closed hydraulic systems, the hydraulic medium is fed directly from the consumer back into the suction line of the pump. This brings some challenges but also many advantages.
In the 37th episode of…
A look at the history of HAWE and a pioneering invention. In the first half of the 20th century, it was common practice to supply tipping trailers via the truck's central hydraulic system. This was n…
Other countries have different mains voltages - and then there are also different mains frequencies. And then there are 1-phase and 3-phase. Hydraulic power units have to work with these challenges a…
In addition to the main hydraulic function of 'bending', press brakes also have a number of secondary functions, such as crowning. This has a significant influence on the accuracy of the bending, esp…
Releasable check valves are common components in many hydraulic systems. They are used for different functions.
In the 33rd episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host Ralph has Product Manager Alper a…
Pressure losses in hydraulic systems always mean increased energy input and unwanted heating of the hydraulic oil.
In the 32nd episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host Ralph has Key Market Manager …
Hydraulic systems often require a great deal of effort during installation and commissioning. Plug & Play systems can reduce this time by 80%.
In the 31st episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host Ra…
Pressure sensors and pressure switches are typical components in many hydraulic systems. Both have similarities but different functions and areas of application.
In the 30th episode of the HAWE Tech …
There are hydraulic applications where the usual pressure ranges of up to approx. 350 bar are not sufficient, instead working with up to 700 bar. For example, this is the case with rescue equipment o…
The hydraulic functions in mobile machines have different requirements. High-precision functions as well as simple functions are often found in the same application. The challenge is to find cost-eff…
In hydraulic systems, the hydraulic oil always heats up. The key is to ensure that the maximum permissible temperature is not exceeded.
In the 27th episode of the HAWE Tech Podcast, our host Ralph has…
A tilt rotator is a hydraulic attachment that significantly enhances the functions of an excavator. It allows attachments to be tilted, swiveled and rotated.
In the 26th episode of the HAWE Tech Podca…
Filling valves are used in hydraulic presses or plastic machines to quickly fill and empty cylinders in rapid motion. There are versions with different functions.
