Danfoss develops smart pump for off-highway applications

Danfoss has completed its H1 range of sophisticated, high-power drives. The new 210/250cm3 piston pump closes offers versatility and high performance for off-highway machine applications, according to the firm. With these additions, the comprehensive range comprises 14 pumps with displacements covering 45-250cm3, five bent axis motors spanning 60-250cm3 and five control options. This offers solutions for advanced transmission solutions. According to Danfoss, efficiency compensates for low engine rpm. Featu

Danfoss says its new piston pump offers high performance hydraulics
1434 Danfoss has completed its H1 range of sophisticated, high-power drives. The new 210/250cm3 piston pump closes offers versatility and high performance for off-highway machine applications, according to the firm. With these additions, the comprehensive range comprises 14 pumps with displacements covering 45-250cm3, five bent axis motors spanning 60-250cm3 and five control options. This offers solutions for advanced transmission solutions.

According to Danfoss, efficiency compensates for low engine rpm. Featuring a compact, lightweight design, the H1 pumps and motors afford versatility and high operating efficiency compensates for the lower rpm of emissions-compliant engines, with the motors outperforming rival units by up to 6%.

A patented integrated speed limitation (ISL) circuit adds to the high-level pump functionality, enabling improved vehicle braking with no risk of engine overspeeding. Danfoss has paid attention to the SIL 2 functional safety requirements that, along with Tier 4, are driving the trend towards intelligent machine management. Enabling automatic adjustment of vehicle driving characteristics to on or off-highway conditions, H1 Automotive Control (AC) is pre-SIL 2 certified.

Most recently, Danfoss has supplemented H1 AC with Eco Mode and Cruise Control options. Configured to lower engine rpm during on-highway transport, Eco Mode cuts fuel consumption by up to 20%. The entire H1 family is compatible with the Danfoss plus+1 control platform, including pre-tested software blocks that save on system development time, bringing new applications faster to market.

    The curved design of LiuGong’s new 375B skid steer loader improves sight lines and makes the machine stand out. The curves also provide another, much less obvious benefit. “Intelligent use of complex shapes adds another important benefit – reduced noise levels inside the cab,” the company said. “By using curves to increase the stiffness of the cab, surface transmission of sound energy is reduced.” The 375B also features improved weight distribution that enables better balance, stability and control.

    January 6, 2017
    JCB is expanding its telehandler line-up with the addition of the compact 525-60 at Conexpo. According to the firm, the 525-60 offers full-size telehandler performance in a compact chassis. Maximum lift height is 6m and its load capacity is 2.5 tonnes, while the 525-60 is just 1.8m wide and 1.91m tall. This allows it to be operated in sites with limited space. The 525-60 Hi-Viz replaces the rear-engined 524-50, 527-55 and the 520-50 models, and features a side-mounted engine design. This permits a low boom

    January 6, 2017
    Engineering firm Ricardo is part way through a research programme to develop an advanced energy recovery system that can be integrated into an excavator’s hydraulic system. Known as the High Efficiency Excavator (HFX) project, the system uses a 5kg carbon fibre flywheel that is encased in a vacuum-sealed cartridge, which contributes to minimising friction. The flywheel is spun at speeds of up to 30,000rpm using a magnetic coupling, which is driven from a hydraulic motor. Power for the hydraulic motor comes
