How Do Hydraulic Motors Work?
Hydraulic motors operate using pressurized hydraulic fluid. This fluid is critical for the operation of a hydraulic motor, as it transfers power between the pistons and turns the motor, delivering an increased output of force and requiring less start-up power.
A basic hydraulic motor contains two pistons separated by tubes that hold hydraulic fluid. When one of these pistons moves, it displaces the hydraulic fluid, which cannot be compressed. The pressure from the first piston and the fluid pressure is transferred via the tubes to the second piston. This is what turns the motor.
All hydraulic motors have three common features:
-
A surface area that is subject to the pressure differential
-
A method of controlling the porting of the pressurized fluid to the surface
-
A connection between the surface area and an output shaft
The performance of the hydraulic motor depends on:
-
The ability of the surface to withstand force
-
Leakage characteristics
-
Efficiency of the method used to link the pressure surface to the output shaft
And the performance of a hydraulic motor is measured by:
-
Pressure low
-
Torque output
-
Speed
-
Volumetric and mechanical efficiencies
-
Service life
-
Physical configuration
Common Hydraulic Problems
Telltale signs of hydraulic problems include:
-
Seal leakage Seals are used to keep the hydraulic fluid pressure contained. They’re a key part of a hydraulic motor. Over time, the seal material can weaken, and it can begin to leak. In some cases, extreme pressure under load can cause a seal to blow out
-
Pressure fittings A hydraulic motor has two pressure fittings – one for each hydraulic line that has fluid entering and then leaving the motor. But while built from strong stainless steel alloy, these fittings can degrade at their attachment points
-
Pistons When disassembled, the most easily spotted part of a hydraulic motor, pistons operate within the cylinders with precise tolerance levels. Any wear will bring a loss of hydraulic pressure
