Hydraulic Pump & Motor
Hydraulic pumps on ships are used to power and control various systems, including steering, propulsion, and thrusters. They are critical components of a ship’s operation and are used in many applications, such as:
Steering systems: Hydraulic pumps power the rudder to control the ship’s direction
Anchor windlasses: Hydraulic pumps raise and lower the anchor
Deck cranes and winches: Hydraulic pumps lift and move heavy loads
Ballast systems: Hydraulic pumps control the ship’s weight distribution to keep it stable in rough seas
Cargo systems: Hydraulic systems make it easier and faster to carry heavy materials
Hydraulic pumps transform mechanical energy from engines or electric motors into hydraulic energy.
