Fluid technology

Fittings, screw connections and valves play a decisive role in fluid technology, especially in hydraulics. They are essential components used in hydraulic systems to enable the control, conduction and transport of fluids.

Fittings and unions are used to connect various hydraulic components such as hoses, pipes, valves and cylinders. They ensure a reliable seal to prevent hydraulic fluid from leaking. They simplify maintenance as they can be dismantled and allow parts to be replaced without dismantling the entire system Fittings allow hydraulic pressure to be controlled and adjusted. This is crucial for maintaining the desired operating conditions in hydraulic systems.

Valves, fittings and control elements that are integrated into hydraulic fittings regulate the direction and quantity of the fluid flow. This enables the control of movements in hydraulic cylinders and other actuators. Throttle valves and control valves can be used to control and adjust the volume flow of hydraulic fluid. This is particularly important in applications where precise movement control is required. Valves protect the hydraulic system from excessive pressure and possible damage. They ensure the safety of machines and operating personnel.

These components are often made from materials that have high temperature resistance and pressure resistance to meet the requirements of hydraulic systems where fluids can circulate under extreme conditions.

Overall, fittings, unions and valves in hydraulics play a central role in ensuring the functionality, efficiency and safety of hydraulic systems. They make it possible to precisely control the forces and movements in numerous industrial applications. This ranges from construction machinery and the automotive industry to factory automation and aviation technology.
