Sizing Tubes for Hydraulic Systems
Tubing must meet two requirements: The inside diameter must be large enough to provide the flow area needed to assure that fluid velocity does not exceed the …
Vacuum Hose and Fittings
Most applications involving vacuum pick-and-place components utilize small-diameter hose and tubing—the same hose and tubing used on similar-sized pneumatic …
Optimizing Pulse Dust Filters
High flow-short duration pulses caused by compressed air-powered dust filter cleaning can cause excessive pressure differentials in a compressed air system and …
An Introduction to Hydro-Mechanical Transmissions
Fuel cost and the fuel-saving characteristics of continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) have increased the pressure to provide CVT capability to larger and …
Basic Vacuum Components
Over the last 30-something articles I’ve written for the Fluid Power Journal, I have discussed various product overviews and specific applications offering …
