Pumps & Motors: Advancements in Fluid Power and Electric Technologies

Pumps and motors play an important role in many machines. Whether hydraulic, pneumatic or electric, they are necessary for converting energy and helping power systems. These devices continue to evolve to meet the ever changing performance requirements of mobile and industrial machinery. 

Within this eHandbook you’ll find articles covering recent developments in fluid power and electric pump and motor designs.

Topics covered include:

• how electrically driven hydraulic pumps aid efficiency gains
• industrial pump technology becoming a greater mix of electric and pneumatic
• performance improvements enabled by servo technology
• an overview of axial flux motors and how they can be used with hydraulic systems.
