Further development of hydraulic quick couplings
Hydraulic connection systems are subjected to high stresses in daily use. Conventional systems often experience oil losses during coupling and uncoupling, negatively impacting cleanliness, the environment, and efficiency. Additionally, contamination of the coupling surfaces and pressure losses within the system lead to increased maintenance and affect the consistent power transmission of the machines.
Conversion to flat couplings according to ISO 16028
As part of the ongoing development of hydraulic systems, the switch is being made to flat couplings according to ISO 16028 (flat-face technology). The aim is to reduce losses and improve operational reliability and efficiency in daily use.
Reduced losses during coupling
The flat-sealing design significantly minimizes the leakage of hydraulic oil during coupling and uncoupling. This results in:
- reduced oil losses during operation (cost savings)
- reduced environmental impact
- cleaner working environment
