WIKA MH-2 Mobile Hydraulic Pressure Transmitter
applied. WIKA offers the MH-2 pressure transmitter to ensure effectiveness of the operation and safety of the crane. When lifting and/or lowering these heavy construction materials, how effective and safe the process is will depend on the crane's stability in carrying the loads. Operators and engineers...

Tire Assemblies
, swiveled and rotated during installation onto the axle. An overhead hoist with a sling or C-frame lifting device was used for lifting; however, this method lacked control and safety. Application: Install front and rear tire assemblies (tire, rim with hub & wheel weight) onto the axles of farm tractors...

Keep it moving with fluid power
. Motion control becomes even more challenging when it involves large, heavy items such as logs or metal parts. Fluid power is often used for these material-handling challenges. Fluid power excels in lifting and holding heavy objects, applying pressure, and squeezing objects with a controllable force...

Steer-by-Wire Systems with Integrated Torque Feedback Improve Steering Performance and Reduce Cost (.pdf)
. additional features. "We considered hydraulic steering, however, the vehicle only has a smal hydraulic. power pack used for lifting the hopper and closing the dump door," said Kurt Vetse, Mechanical. Engineer. "This power pack is designed for intermittent use so going to hydraulic steering would have...

The coaster with the moster
each car four road wheels ride on the track. Four side wheels position the train to the left and right, and four up-stop wheels keep the train from lifting off the track. Unbelievably, six 16-passenger trains run on the track simultaneously. Operators control the traffic using PLCs and an advanced...

Cylinders
body. Total stroke length may be as much as four times as long as the collapsed length of the cylinder. Available in either single or double-acting models, telescoping cylinders are widely used for vehicle applications; a typical job is lifting the bed of a dump truck. Force output varies with rod...
