Hydraulics

Hydraulics covers hoses, pumps, pipes, couplings, components, filtration and complete systems that transmit power through fluid. ERIKS supplies standard products, customised systems, maintenance and system integration.

Hydraulics uses fluid to transmit force and movement within equipment or machinery. Pumps, pipes and couplings provide the connection, while components and filtration support system operation.

Hydraulic systems are developed for industrial and mobile sectors. Compact power units, subassemblies and complete systems can be combined with mechanical power transmission, motors, gearboxes and frequency drives.

Identify the function of the pump, pipe, coupling or complete system. Then define the system layout, hydraulic fluid and required filtration. Next decide whether the requirement calls for a standard component, compact power unit, subassembly or integrated customised system.

Key attributes are component type, system configuration, hydraulic fluid, filtration and the choice between a standard product, compact power unit, subassembly and complete system.

Frequently asked questions

Hydraulics includes hoses, pumps, pipes, couplings, components, power units and filtration. The appropriate combination depends on the function and configuration of the hydraulic system.

Filtration reduces contamination in the oil. It supports the operation of hydraulic components and systems and should therefore be considered during system selection and maintenance.

A customised system is relevant when separate standard components do not meet the required system configuration. ERIKS can develop and produce compact power units, subassemblies and complete hydraulic systems.

Yes. The hydraulic section can be combined with mechanical power transmission, motors, gearboxes and frequency drives when the application requires an integrated solution.
