Hydraulic systems are closed systems, which apply the law of physics, the law of conservation of energy. These systems store energy, by compressing a liquid (oil) in a closed container and from there the oil can flow in a predetermined direction. The oil is compressed by a pump, usually driven by an electric motor or manually.
What are Hydraulic Systems used for?
The uniqueness of hydraulic systems is the fact that they allow large forces to be released by investing relatively small forces at the start. This enables lifting heavy weights, for example the weight of the vehicle on the jack, by manually operating the hydraulic device. The effort required to operate the jack is small, but the weight that the jack lifts at the end of the road can be enormous.
The benefits of using hydraulic systems are huge.
A hydraulic system is a very efficient method of power transmission.
The user interface is simple and easy to operate.
Actions of starting, stopping, accelerating and decelerating are performed easily, with great precision and can be fully controlled.
This is a liquid system which usually does not require a gearbox, pulleys, or complex mechanical transmissions.
These systems easily handle a huge load range.
You can get constant forces or constant and precise movement easily.
Hydraulic systems are safe and economical compared to mechanical and electrical systems because fewer moving parts are used and maintenance is simple and relatively inexpensive.
These systems are safe in areas defined as flammable or explosive areas such as gas stations and fuel reservoirs, as they do not cause sparks.
