In short, hydraulics is a topic in applied science and engineering that deals with the mechanical properties of liquids. It may seem a relatively modern phenomenon but nothing could be further from the truth. The word itself is of Ancient Greek origin and comes from ὕδωρ or hydor (Greek for water) and αὐλός or aulos,…
An efficient hydraulic power system is incredibly important in the movement and operation of construction vehicles, cars and other machinery and, thus, also is important in urban development projects. The UN has predicted that over 68% of the world’s population is projected to live in urban areas by 2050, This staggering statistic highlights, on a…

Hydraulic cylinders are an essential component for a wide variety of industrial sectors. They are intrinsic to the operation of hydraulic presses, cranes, agricultural vehicles, excavators, hydroelectric stations, conveyor belts and shipbuilding machinery to name just a few. The usefulness of hydraulic cylinders means that they are ubiquitous across a number of sectors and industries.…
Using hydraulics (or fluid power) is a complex area of science. Whether it’s used in your workplace or not, hydraulics are everywhere, from the brakes inside your car to farming equipment. It can be complicated to understand, so we’ve put together a brief guide to understanding where this science came from and how hydraulic power…
