Directional Valve
Orbit Motors are a type of hydraulic motor that utilize a unique orbital design to convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy (rotational motion). They are known for their compact size, high efficiency, and ability to produce significant torque output, making them suitable for various applications, especially in mobile equipment and industrial machinery.
- 1 - Orbit motors work based on the principle of orbital motion, where an internal rotating element (often called the "orbital gear") is driven by hydraulic fluid. As the hydraulic fluid enters the motor, it causes the orbital gear to rotate around a central shaft, resulting in rotational output.
- 2 - Gear Orbit Motors: Utilize gears to achieve motion and are often used for low-speed, high-torque applications.
- 3 - Vane Orbit Motors: Employ vanes for movement, providing smooth operation and the ability to handle variable loads.
- 4 - Piston Orbit Motors: Use pistons arranged in an orbital pattern to produce rotation, suitable for high-performance applications.
Applications: -
- 1 - Mobile Equipment: Commonly used in agricultural machinery, construction equipment (e.g., excavators, loaders), and forestry machines where compact design and high torque are essential.
- 2 - Industrial Machinery: Found in conveyor systems, packaging machines, and material handling equipment for efficient operation and movement.
- 3 - High Torque Output: Orbit motors can generate substantial torque, making them ideal for demanding applications.
- 4 - Efficiency: They offer good efficiency at various operating speeds, leading to lower energy consumption.
- 5 - Smooth Operation: The orbital motion allows for smooth and continuous operation, reducing vibrations and wear on components.
