Whether you’re looking for a hydraulic power pack for yourself or your customer, for a mobile or industrial system, and regardless of whether you are starting with a blank sheet of paper or have a hydraulic system design that you are looking to improve…
Our collaborative approach provides a confidential environment to explore new system designs.
What we can tell you is that we have a solid track record as trusted hydraulic power pack suppliers. Our systems are hard at work throughout the UK and all over the world as far away as New Zealand.
Our hydraulic power units can be found: on emergency services vehicles and in mobility vehicles; lifts and bath systems used in hospitals and care homes; on fairground rides and roller coasters; in universities; in breweries; in steel works; on wind turbine masts and alternative energy power generation projects; in national distribution depots; in special events and outside broadcast hospitality suites; in prestigious horseboxes and hard-working livestock transportation vehicles; in tipping skip hoppers; on manufacturing and production lines or in bespoke construction and engineering projects and even in machinery making mud bricks used in the construction of basic housing in Africa.
Hydraulic Power Pack Case Study
One customer that we can tell you about, however, is Concorde – three times over! We have designed and supplied hydraulic systems to the ‘droop nose’ projects on Concorde G-AXDN at the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, Concorde G-BBDG at Brooklands Museum, Surrey and Concorde G-BOAC at the Manchester Airport Runway Visitor Park – bringing life back to these magnificent aircraft for visitors to enjoy for generations to come.
“It’s been a real pleasure dealing with Mark and the team at Hydraulics Online. They have been very accommodating throughout, giving expert advice backed up by full written technical specifications and, of course, provided the equipment. I have 100% trust in their work and project management, which makes my job a great deal easier, as I can fully focus on the bigger picture.”
What is a hydraulic power pack; how does it work and other frequently asked questions…
A hydraulic power pack is a combination of: a prime mover / pump drive, hydraulic pump, reservoir and hydraulic controls to supply power to a hydraulic system. Hydraulic power packs are purposely designed to complete several operations with different forces and speeds. A hydraulic power unit (HPU) produces flow and pressure which enables it to drive hydraulic motors, hydraulic cylinders, and other corresponding components of a hydraulic system, either rotary or linear.
Some of the significant factors that influence a hydraulic power unit’s performance include pressure limits, power capacity, and reservoir volume. Physical characteristics, including size, power supply, and pumping strength are also important considerations. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions that we receive…
What types of hydraulic power pack can you supply?
