Hydraulic fluid power is created as the pump pushes fluid through the system. The fluid is routed through valves that direct the flow and relieve pressure when required. The fluid actuates the cylinder, resulting in hydraulic energy converting into mechanical energy.
This begs the question: Does a hydraulic pump create pressure or flow?
Hybrid construction machinery (HCM) and earth moving equipment technology are essential and effective solutions for the global environmental impact of pollution and impending energy shortages.
