Why choose hydraulic piston pumps?

Hydraulic piston pumps can handle large flows and operate over a wide range of hydraulic system pressure, at medium pressure 160 bar and high pressure of 350 bar.  The energy is not consumed much while operating and a few maintenance considerations to bear in mind if customer manage this type of pump compare to other hydraulic fix pumps.

Moisture Contamination or Water in Hydraulic System

The best approach to handling the problem is using oil filter to capture and to minimize the level of contamination to 0.03% and some special feature can quickly reduce to 0.01%

Selecting the Right Hydraulic Cylinder for the Application

Typical design features of hydraulic cylinders.

  1. Standard hydraulic cylinders

Often seen at work in both industrial application and mobile application.  Easy to use, no complicate function.

  1. Welded hydraulic cylinder

Suitable for mobile application such as hydraulic mobile crane, marine application, aerospace, dredger.

  1. Compact hydraulic cylinder

Mostly use in automation, clamp, jig, etc.

What are the advantages of pneumatic systems?

• Work in inflammable environment without causing fire or explosion.
• Provide rapid movement and agile performance.
• Clean without chemicals and no harmful when dispose.
• Simple to maintain.
• Safe and sustain overload pressure conditions.
• Easy selection of speed from low to high.
• Basic components used in pneumatic systems.
• Temperature is flexible even in quite extreme conditions, the air was still able to work.

What are the disadvantages of pneumatic systems?

• Operation is subject to the volume of the compressed air.
• Easily condensed and sensitive to any intrusion by water.
• Require large work space.
• Loud and noisy.
• Uneven compressed air caused by heat and temperature.

Choosing the Right Pneumatic Cylinder?

It shall begin with understanding the application what the desired end result of the operation is. The most common pneumatic cylinder is still the rod-style cylinder which function in two ways.
• single-acting – typically used for light duty operation where the cylinders supply compressed air to only one side of the piston, creating force and motion only in one direction
• double-acting – has a port at each end and air pressure is applied alternately to the opposite ends of the piston. This type of cylinder will be used in all applications.
supply compressed air to only one side of the piston, thus creating force and motion only in one direction

Selecting the Right Bore Size of Pneumatic Cylinder for the Application?

Sized the pneumatic cylinder to application by determining the amount of force required, and the length of the stroke. Diameter of the cylinder (Bore) as dimensional ISO standards and length of the stroke popularly measured in millimeters.

How the Multi-Purpose Loader Operate?

Respond to the needs of operator with multi-grapple capacity. Simply changeable attachments are available in different designs to meet customer requirements.

Product Warranty of Agricultural Machinery

1st Year Warranty: Free components & parts, free service charge.

2nd Year Warranty: Free maintenance-check, free service charge.  Customers only pay for components & parts.

Short circuits: How they happen and how to prevent them?

It is more likely for short-circuit issues to arise in several reasons such as hotspot problem, substandard installation of solar panels, no undertaking routine maintenance, etc. Thus, having professionals do the job can provide quality assurance and give confidence that the PV system will run correctly and safely.

Solar panel system maintenance

Solar panels need regular cleaning to avoid dust buildup in order to maintain top efficiency.

The lifespan of solar panels. How long do solar panels last?

Manufacturers usually offer solar panels along with a 25 years of warranty and that the panels should still produce at least 80% of their initial output peak rate after 25 years (depending on the panels or manufacturer). The panels older than 25 years will have a decrease in efficiency and regular solar panel maintenance is a key to keep solar panel’s efficiency higher.

The most common location for the installation of solar panels?

Ideally, solar panels can be installed anywhere because solar power is available everywhere. Most common locations are on the ground, rooftop, car park or canopy. Technological trend is also a floating solar.

Where should solar panels be positioned?

The most efficient position is that the solar panel facing south at a tilt angle of about 10-15 degrees. Avoiding facing north or any location that spends the majority of the day under shade or distant tree branch, it will not perform as expected.
