Fluid power deals with components, systems and technologies that are linear and rotating Transfer forces and Generate movements. Oil is used in hydraulics, air in pneumatics, more precisely compressed air, and vacuum technology creates a vacuum that can be used to grip components, for example. While the good old hydraulics are easy to control high forces is predestined, pneumatics is suitable for applications that require high speeds, but more low forces have to transfer. Fluid technology can be found in the drive technology for machines and systems of all kinds.
Find out about the news from the Fluid Technology for industrial manufacturing with a focus on Energy saving and precision. Here you will find fluid technology components and systems such as pumps, valves, controls and fluids such as cooling lubricants that are required for fluid technology in hydraulics. The innovations out Hydraulic System, Pneumaticsand Vacuum Technology are used in Drive Technology, Manufacturing and assembling.
Special industries like Automotive industry, Renewable energies, Medical Technology, food technology, Microsystems Technology, Mobile Machinery require specially designed developments and knowledge. Here we introduce you to the latest innovations in the field of fluid technology.

Fluid technology fulfills the requirements in plant and mechanical engineering often drive engineering tasks. It is used to generate linear and rotating movements or forces hydraulically or pneumatically. If the application requires high, easily controllable forces, this is a task for the hydraulics. Pneumatics, on the other hand, are predestined when high speeds with low forces are required. In vacuum technology, on the other hand, negative pressure is generated. One area of application is the handling of parts.
As part of an innovation offensive, Mahle further developed the "COM plus" series of fuel filters for large engines operated with heavy fuel oil. For this purpose, the rinsing function of the automatic cleaning was switched from an electromechanical to a hydraulic drive. Bott's hydraulic experts found a clever solution that reliably and independently supplies the huge motors with fuel while the filter is being cleaned. For the economical and ecologically advanced automatic filters in the hot circuit, the globally unique solution is a real competitive advantage and a great reassurance for shipowners.
ASM presents a new sensor solution for hydraulic cylinders before, the installation and maintenance are considerably simplified: “Posichron Easymount” is an absolute, non-contact and wear-free position measuring system for measuring lengths up to 5750 mm.
The modular Hydraulic valve RPEK1-03 / B kit from Argo Hytos was made for mobile and stationary Hydraulic System Applications designed. The construction kit is based on the RPEK1-03 disc directional valve, nominal size 03. The directional valve has a maximum flow rate of 20 l / min per section.
A major challenge in dosing technology is still the gentle dosing of solids-laden liquids without damaging the solids. Viscotec provides pharma dispensers in hygienic design that guarantee a reliable dosing process.
When looking for a 1K or 2K dosing solution for a newly developed application in which casting compounds are cast both manually and automatically, Fichter machines struck gold at Viscotec. With the “Viscoduo-VM” mixed system, the machine manufacturer masters the challenge of being able to switch between serial and manual operation for prototype production on a system.
Viscotec presents optimized dispenser series for even smaller dosing quantities in the 1K and 2K range. In addition, the ceramic rotor specially designed for highly abrasive materials and an optimized version of a mixing block for materials that are difficult to mix will be on display.
Electro-mechanical or pneumatic-mechanical: Reliable switching elements are essential for the safe operation of a vacuum system. The product family of mechanical vacuum switches VS-V-EM-ST (electro-mechanical) and VS-V-PM (pneumatic-mechanical) from J. Schmalz GmbH ensures efficient process monitoring and control in automated handling.
The modular Vacuum gripper row of coval can be configured and adapted to any application. On the one hand, the suction cups can be configured in terms of shape, diameter and materials. On the other hand, the vacuum level can be adjusted using an electronic vacuum switch or vacuum valve.
